Could be a long season.

I hope not. I’m ready to see what we got tonight.

 

[WVUALLEN]

I hope not. I’m ready to see what we got tonight.

8 players it won't be easy.

 

[MountaineerWV]

8 players it won't be easy.

On a positive note, nobody should be pissed about their playing time. :joy:

RaeQuan Battle, Kerr Kriisa and Akok Akok in the house supporting their team

 

[locustwv]

Nice start!!

 

[MountaineerWV]

15-2 run........no FG's in over 6 minutes........just not enough consistent or experienced scorers out there.

 

[locustwv]

They’ve adjusted. We haven’t

 

[MountaineerWV]

13 minutes without a made basket. Let that sink in.

 

[MountaineerWV]

They’ve adjusted. We haven’t

Their adjustment is don't defend three of our players and triple Edwards.

 

[MountaineerWV]

I don't care about our current situation with players. You are a Power 5 team, and you can't make a basket in the final 14 minutes of action....against Missouri State?

Yea it’s pretty frustrating. We missed a few layups also.

 

[Jdodd312]

In Slazinski we trust….

 

[Rootmaster]

Wow. How can these guys claim to be college basketball players when they can't shoot at all. Pathetic. Thanks Huggs. Ahole.

 

[MountaineerWV]

4-32 in the first half..........yes..........that is horrible.

[locustwv]

Crazy we are only down 6.

 

[Jdodd312]

That and only 8 guys….one being Naveh who is no where near ready to be playing D1 bal, much less power 5 ball.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Crazy we are only down 6.

It might get out of hand early in 2nd half. There's not many "adjustments" you can make when your team misses 28 shots in the first half. It's about talent level.

 

[MountaineerWV]

That and only 8 guys….one being Naveh who is no where near ready to be playing D1 bal, much less power 5 ball.

He's not ready.

 

[Rootmaster]

He's not ready.

No one but Edwards is ready.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Thanks Huggins may we have another.

 

[WVUALLEN]

No one but Edwards is ready.

And he's forcing his shots.

[MountaineerWV]

Thanks Huggins may we have another.

This is 100% on him. But there will be some who will deny it.

[locustwv]

We are gonna be ok. Playing better

 

[WVUALLEN]

Weak inside. Big 12 will crush us.

 

[MountaineerWV]

We are gonna be ok. Playing better

We are playing better. But define "OK"?

 

[locustwv]

We are playing better. But define "OK"?

Better than first half!!

 

[MountaineerWV]

Blowing another one. The more things change, the more things stay the same. Up 11 now up 3. Amazing how we piss away possessions.

EDIT: Clean some things up. Going to see a lot of games like this is my prediction.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Amazing. Seems like every team we play drain deep 3 after 3.

 

[MountaineerWV]

What a nice play by Naveh. That tip pass was big time.

 

[locustwv]

It’s a win!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

I'll take it.

22 for 63 FG

1st half 4 of 32
2nd half 18-31

7-21 FROM 3
16-20 FT
