Murray defeated Nichols state by a score of 79 - 99.
Considering there were points in the game where it seemed like Valpo was poised to jump out to a 20 point game and couldn't hang onto the lead...I am still left uncertain and must still look for meaningful improvements
Same vs EIU. Their offense has been too poor in consistently scoring for them to pull away when they should. It's a pattern which needs to be broken.
Can someone relay to the refs that the whistle need not blow everytime they exhale. This has been tedious with the away from the basket fouls to this point on both ends.
The same pattern continues of not being able to make shots around the basket and then not making free throws. This game is a 5 point game at this point but really should be 10-12.
Bryant is displaying a new strategy.
Foul Valpo into Double bonus. Its basically a free turnover
Just simply cannot shoot the ball. Defense has been stellar, but the only shots falling is Chaney from 3
Now is time to hit the panic button on this team.
We have 3+ games worth of data on the Middle school level shot selection and Middle school shooting ability of this team.
Getting to the line is generally a sign of a good team. Making 38% from FT line - not so much.
After a 12-2 lead, they outscored us 28-10 in last 10 minutes of first half. Dreadful
Bryant, less talent, more team ball/organized system. Powell, similar to Lottich, recruiting not the issue. Brown Whitaker Chaney. Log jam at that position. Rotations not figured out yet, to much one on one. Justice???????
Its still early non con slate, but as we just saw, need to break out the book of Sweet.
Need to get Pettigrew involved down low. Singlehandedly turned this game around and put Bryant in early bonus trouble
Now is time to hit the panic button on this team.
We have 3+ games worth of data on the Middle school level shot selection and Middle school shooting ability of this team.
UPDATE: Shot selection has been upgraded to the D1 level. Hope to keep this through the stretch with Bryant forced to play soft and without starters
Who are these guys and can they keep putting pressure on Bryant
Give Rakim Chaney all of the NIL
Although it was in our favor I agree with Keegan Harvey here. The officiating has been a thumbs down
I dont know whether to call it a positive or a negative when I say this...but this should be a 40 point game....
