The shooting still sucks in Archie’s third season. This problem isn’t going away. His offense doesn’t work at the high major level.

Ah! Out from under his rock!

Glad to see he's playing (although I'm not actually seeing it). ... I thought Archie ruled him out for tonight

Green not playing who many think will be our leading scorer.

Durham not playing who will log lots of minutes off the bench.

Rob has sat out most of the month with some kind of injury.

Freshmen Franklin and TJD are getting valuable playing time and between them have 10 of our 20 rebounds.  And Franklin has 3 of our 6 steals.  

We're 5-6 on FT's.

That is all.

At least you found some positives out of that atrocity.

That's all true, but we're not dominating every single split-second of this game so we should definitely start to think about a replacement for Archie as he clearly can't coach whatsoever. I'm sure there's an elderly RMK disciple out there somewhere who needs a job, right? {sarcasm font}

Justin Smith only missed 1 shot, a free throw, has 7 pts., 2 assts, 1 blk, 1 stl., and no turnovers!!

At halftime, Bellarmine leads pUKe 35-33 and Duke absolutely steamrolled (sarcastically) NMSU 69-63. 

CORRECTION:  Bellarmine leading U of 6 35-33 at halftime.

 

I'm just not ready to declare panic in the streets.

Pretty embarrassing first half. Doesn’t really matter who is sitting. Hustle wasn’t great. Terrible passes. Not crashing the boards enough with the size advantage we have. Shooting is still bad. This team is going to have to rely on defense. The offense absolutely isn’t going to be good enough and that’s really just a given at this point. Gotta get stops and fast break points.

If you’re not panicked, you’re part of the problem!

I’m thinking Rob is going to need to be more aggressive looking for his shot this year. We need his outside shot. The ball is too stagnant when we throw into the post. More inside out ...

Overall I don’t think there’s much to glean from a game like this. As others have said it’s good that our underclassmen are playing and getting exposure. 
 

A loss would be pretty embarrassing to be fair.

That’s all there is in southern Indiana. Lol. It gets harder every day to find IU fans.

Not true.  Don’t know where you live but I see IU fans all the time in Southern Indiana

[Ranger78 1,293]

I thought Smith had some good minutes.

In fairness, pUKe and Dookie players don't get paid to play exhibitions.

in slightly more fairness, Bellarmine is ahead of Uof6, not pUKe. To be fair again, there was an early bird special at the Quarter Pole Lounge.

I see IU fans in Woodstock Ga.

Yeah, I screwed up.  What do you expect from an old fart?
