Band Man Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Damn, if we would have cut it to 25 I think we would have had a shot. This road game trend starts and ends with one guy in my opinion. And that guy is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreyT3 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 We should never hear "Thompson for three." This is unacceptable Do you even know a thing about Bretts game? Hes a good 3 shooter for a big guy and coach has been telling him to shoot the 3 when hes open. Hes playing pretty decent if you dont count that terrible turnover he had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes a good 3 shooter for a big guy and coach has been telling him to shoot the 3 when hes open. Hes playing pretty decent if you dont count that terrible turnover he had I agree completely. For whatever reason the past couple times weeks or so he seemingly plays much better on the road. It just looks like a different level of intensity and focus. If only our seniors could try that too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moytoy12 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 And that guy is... Guy philips. Seriously, it's rick. It's becoming too much of a trend, in my opinion, to blame it on the players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreyT3 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Guy philips. Seriously, it's rick. It's becoming too much of a trend, in my opinion, to blame it on the players. How can you blame rick for the seniors playing like crap...Kevin and Tommie just dont have that "It" factor. Theyre good but when the games tough they just fold under the pressure. These losses are all on the team being young and not having seniors to step up and show everyone how to do it. Theses losses are all on the lack of senior leadership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moytoy12 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thats just stupid. He's not the seniors out there overmatched by Temple. Nope, but he's in charge of a team that is doing this on a far too consistent basis in the last 2 years. This offense is brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Band Man Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 A freshman's brother insulting a future hall of fame senior. Stay classy Mr. Thompson. Why is KL untouchable even amidst a performance like this. It is a message board and people will write what they think. I'm sure on a night like tonight you will see some exaggerations and emotions. Too bad the emotion and energy on this board can't be given to the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my seniors played like crap consistently, I'd think about changing something up. But they dont play like crap consistently, only when the game is tough...he cant make players, especially ones he didnt recruit...tougher players. By tough I dont mean take hits, Kevin can take a hit everyone knows that, I mean when they face resistence they fold and that is no way RM fault...Yeah coach needs to take some blame but most of this game is on TL and KL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saluki762 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Yeah SIU is under 500. If you were watching the game tonight Kevins missing everything...he sucks tonightListen, I am not like most SIU fans. I sincerely hope your brother is a future All-American and gets to play in 4 NCAA tourneys while at SLU. That said, Kevin is having an off year and people wish he was playing better but he doesn't suck. You made a point to make it know that Brett is your brother. That makes it completely inappropriate for you to say what you said. Say that he needs to step it up as a senior, say he is having an off game but you of all people shouldn't be saying he sucks. You lost your ability to say things like that when you made it known who you were. I hate to make assumptions but I bet you wouldn't say it to his face.

I think that several time on here I have said that I think Brett is going to have a good career at SLU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
