5 championships Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Quick questions. Let's say we lose first or second round of big ten tournament and are not projected to make NCAA tournament or NIT, do we still get to practice the whole week before the NCAA tournament? I'm guessing we do or is our season considered over and we go straight into offseason workouts with returning players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy River Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 1 hour ago, BobSaccamanno said: Rob had too many TO’s but he was still a plus player overall. You can’t say that about any other guard. Rob has that second semester senior year mojo and it’s clicking. I haven't looked to see how many he had, but I know one was chasing down a loose ball and stepping on the end line, and another was on an obvious screen and roll, where Freddi screened, but inexplicably never rolled. The sideline antics were annoying, and more than a little embarrassing. The phrase "Act like you've been here" came to mind. I can't imagine those guys seeing that on TV and being proud. Maybe if they worked on their game as much as their skits they would be sitting on the other end of the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked to me like they work harder on their sideline antics, than their basketball skills. At no time, did it look to me that they were preparing to enter the game. Even at the end.

He wouldn’t be so hard on him if he didn’t think Green had the potential to be really good. Yuuuuup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a critique because I like what they’ve been giving us, but we are too delicate to have this many guys off. ...... Very true. Both had instances where they showed poor awareness on blocking out and subsequently gave up buckets or rebounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only about 30 minutes from where I live, so we played them in sports all the time. Had a mascot dressed up like a giant corn cob, so I get how they got the corn part of the name. I didn't ask where the jerker part came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has cooled off his defense and rebounding considerably in last 3 or so games. Play Smith. Develop him in the remaining games as much as possible. We definitely want him back for a couple more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
