Have we ever had a good end of half possession with Crean as coach

 

The end of the 2nd half in the 2011 Kentucky game went pretty well from what I remember.

[ALASKA HOOSIER 11,182]

We are much bettter than these turds.

 

TW is trying to win the game by himself. :(

Wait, you mean Crean could have called a timeout to stop a run earlier and chose not to? 

 

 

That NEVER happens... :rolleyes:

That run is on RoJo. As a PG he needs to facilitate and not force. He forced a shot up and it started Butler off to the races.

Well played half minus the last 1 1/2 minutes. Troy's shot selections are very poor, but Hanner played some of his best ball with blocks and rebounds. I like our chances if Crean goes back to original game plan. Its like he becomes a spectator instead of the head coach knowing he can call time outs when needed or talk to the officials. Our opponent with an assistant as head coach has a better grasp of game management unfortunately. We have to win games in spite of our coach truth be told.

Like bringing in Barlow to get third foul

[TheStillman 991]

We built a 10 point lead due to Creans game plan of attacking their defenders with our athleticism then our players decided to lose all focus last 2 minutes. This game isn't tied because of Crean.

Hanner's coming out party! We believed in him.... Now he believes in himself!
Playing a whale of a game!
Go HPM!

Wish we could play him as a strong forward

I can see by the last 5 minutes or so of the first half that when Butler tightened their defense we are pretty well paralyzed in the half court set.  If we can't run and gun or fast break we aren't very good against better competition.

Coast to cast terrible play by YKF.... ridiculous!

Not calling timeouts when they are needed is all on Crean unless you expect the players to manage the game.

[BlueDevil 8,655]

Don't like the way this half is starting

[Whoozhers 3,638]

I hope Yogi doesn't add one of those from behind steals this game. He's a junior for crying out loud!

[Hovadipo 53,142]

Thunderfunky.

[schoosier 3,445]

I like the lineup of JB, Yogi, Hoeztal, Hanner and Troy. Gives us more size. I don't like Hartman and Z starting 2nd half.

I personally would take Hartman over Hoetzel, but I like the big lineup as well.

[Hovadipo 53,142]

Barlow has 4 fouls. That's importanté.
