Agree, All have something they are very good at but also have a major flaw. Seem like good kids who play hard but difficult to get so many non complete players to play well together. They play hard and we have seen enough of the frosh to say did any get better as the season went on? How the hell has no one told the freshmen not to pick up their dribble in the lane, they all do it. Q gets 8 ft away and shoots 25%, he used the backboard one game and didn't miss. I'm sorry but this is on the coaches. I don't think we are going dancing but there is no reason to see improvement as the year went on Tough to single out JQ, and development of the FR. JQ will be all rookie. Aranguren has slumped a bit, but there was a tweet recently where Jean, and 3 HM freshmen, were the only 4 FR in the country shooting 50/40/80. Adewale held his own start of season, lost PT when Os returned, but has played well once back in starting 5. Want to knock Tobin for cutting his PT so much? Fair game. Saunders and Bates have shown flashes of being productive down the road. Sounds like pretty solid development for a FR class not expected to contribute as much on a team loaded with grad transfers Some stats, not counting today 1st number % shots at rim, 2nd % made. Quigley 37/46 Tretout 37/49 Brown 72/49 Aranguren 33/65 Quigley and the FR are not the problem |

No, how high are your panties up your ass today, nobody complained or criticized the game, so you are cranky? I guess my comments hit home and hopefully have distracted you from criticizing other board members posts. While I’m at it, let me say that I consider you to be a very good fan and loyal to the Gaels. I admire you for that. It’s the bullying of others for their posts that I have a problem with. Stay in touch… No , just no stupid comments by people today. |

I said I don't see improvement in his game, he should show the most improvement since he has played the most. Do you think on those 8 footers he should go glass? Do you think he should pick the ball up in the lane when not going to the basket? I like the kid I don't think he has been taught much |

Yes but that Cluess team also won the MAAC regular season championship if I am not mistaken. We had a terrible start to the season and were destroyed in most non conference games, but we went on to get really hot in the second half of the season led by Ricky McGill if I remember correctly. That team also played very well against UNC as a #16 seed and was winning at the half. I remember that season going from one of the most miserable to one of the most memorable in the span of a few months. |
