Random College Basketball Thoughts: 2016-17

Miami turning the ball over damn near every possession

So many people gone hopefully we keep building thru recruiting instead of transfers

I can't wrap my head around how Dennis Smith's talent doesn't translate into wins. In fact, a team with him, Rowan, Dorin, Abu, and Be jay should be a nice lil squad. What is going wrong up there?

They don't listen to Gott

He lost the team
BeeJay gained all that weight back
DSJ stops the ball and tries to do too much. Gott moved him off the ball last game and things flowed better

Got a feeling Shamorie Ponds of St. John's might be looking towards other options after this season.

jeff capel doesn't know what he's doing, i hate this starting lineup...harry is a step slow, luke can't guard a gaddamn thing or pass the ball, matt has some decent defensive moments, but cannot handle the ball or distribute. start frank/grayson/jayson/amile/marques. perfect balance of scoring and defense. don't play luke and grayson together, but if you have to start one, start grayson and let luke be a microwave off the bench with matt making up for luke's defensive deficiencies.

 

[The Villain]

so is Capel just fukking around cause this is State or do Allen and Kennard really not start anymore.

nikka hanging on the rim

and that was his 4th foul I believe

 

[funkee]

i called it, capel is a fukking idiot. i don't care if this starting group created a spark against the U, this cannot be a regular starting lineup. no reliable shooter and no penetrator other than frank. grayson has to be paired with frank. matt jones had a great 2nd half against miami, but this role is not good for him, WTF.

 

[Big Boss]

NC state hooping

 

[young3000]

Might have to fire Capel on the spot if they lose

should go zone...bigs aren't stepping up. It's not even like NC State is playing all that well
