UL v DePaul Post Game Comments
- Thread starter WahooCard

One negative observation: Why doesn’t Coach Jeff Walz play our subs more when we are blowing out the opposition?
Oh wait we don’t have any subs!

I agree our subs are really good this could be a special year for us. The only negative is it is going to be hard to see them play in person. If this was a normal year this team would set an attendance record.
My only come concern is playing a team with one, or more, very skilled post players. NC St has Cunane - one person. But, if someone has a 6’4”-6’5” Center and then another 6’’3-4” Forward. That sort of size could be a problem defensively. I’m not worried about scoring points though.
Duke has a 6'5" post player in Jade Williams who evidently can pass the ball and a 6'3" wing in Akinbode-James. Williams is a McDonald All American and a three year starter for the Tarheels. The game at Cameron on Wednesday might be interesting. Akinbode -James bio says she is majoring in electrical engineering and computer science which is quite a feat for someone on a basketball scholarship.

Good call. DePaul got some rebounds that i found to be a bit worrisome. That’s why I stated what I did about a large frontcourt combo. On the other hand, if we run it can really wear out a big. They also have to guard us and when 4/5 on our side can shoot from all over the court - they will have to come out of the paint and guard us which helps with rebounding. If they shoot decently... they should be in good shape. A bad shooting night could be problematic. With so many viable options I feel pretty good that someone will find the range - they certainly don’t rely on just one fantastic shooter.
