RiseOfTheBillikens Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 So this guy on ESPN+ doesn't know the rules about it not counting or? He did a good job though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 82-69 final. Credit to Maryville for playing hard and making shots, not looking the least bit shaken out there. Let's get back to full strength and look about 20x sharper this weekend because K-State will eat our lunch if we look like that again.

HoosierPal Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Hargrove needs to shoot his FT underhanded. 3star_recruit and basebill123 like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quality Is Job 1 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 The Bills played 8 players. They got 30 bench points — 27 from Hargrove. Hargrove had nearly 33% of the team's scoring output today. Think he should play? Of course, we need to see him do that against a Div. 1 team.

Pistol Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 23-30 (.767) from the FT line. I'll take that every night. Great job, fellas. Goodwin's line: 39 minutes, 18 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 block, 6 steals, 4 turnovers, 1 foul. Hargrove's line: 28 minutes, 27 points, 7 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 steal, 1 foul.

Just going off the board comments, I’m guessing Ford will emphasize his defense (or lack thereof) and give TJ a challenge. Get better on D and you’ll get time. We’re gonna love TJ before it’s all done, that’s for sure. RUBillsFan likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Some good things ..... first, I was never really worried after the seven point halftime lead. Most importantly, Hargrove got his time. They can now run tape for him and show him first hand where he is weak. Overall, an A- game for the kid. Defense needs work. Secondly, his FT shooting is a lot better than what we have seen to date. Second importance was Collins going 4 of 4 at the line. We are going to need that. Thirdly, our FT shooting improved because it wasn't Goodwin or French. Goodwin was still on 1 of 3 and that won't cut it down the stretch in tight games. Martyville shot 52% when all was said and done. Credit Maryville. We outrebounded them 37 to 30 but they didn't miss much. Fourteen of those were on the offensive end. It was a good game from the point of establishing some of our bench guys. Disappointed in Jacobs and Hankton however. Jimmy Bell needs to add some lift to his game. He was a dreadful 1 of 5 in a game where I thought he'd dominate more. Hargrove's 27 were an oddity for now.... if he can do half that moving forward I'd be happy. Hankton was outmatched by D2 opponents. Sadly. Tay Weaver was shut out again; not expecting much going forward for now. We got guys rest in terms of French and Jimmmmmerson so we can expect a full complement come Saturday I think. Good to see Fred on the court when it was over ---- he's still around. Maryville played tough. It was a big game for them in the city with us shorthanded. Just what I expected overall.

RiseAndGrind Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 So I didn't get to see the game but Hargrove's stats looks ridiculous. Combination of poor competition and great improvements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan03 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Tj played amazing the reason he's not in most of the time is cause he doesn't understand the plays. But I do not know why someone doesn't spend countless hours talking and running through the plays with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgeldmacher Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 In the passenger seat on the ride home from the game. Hargrove in one game showed us all the reasons to be super excited about him and all the reasons why he’s not normally playing. He scored 27 and gave up 35. I love the guy, but don’t expect this effort to turn into a lot of playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing I like about him the most is his attitude, he has not pouted due to a lack of playing time, the few times his number has been called he's been mentally ready always plays with great energy and enthusiasm. majerus mojo and cgeldmacher like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s the case, then clearly my recollection isn’t completely accurate. It just seem like every time he was guarding a guy one on one the guy scored. He certainly had some blocks and nice place on Defensive end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clocktoweraccords2004 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Dude scores 27 and people still are debating if he should ever be on the court. Smh we have plenty of players who put up 15+ min and end games consistently with 6ish points. Newsflash, we need scorers. Gibson, Perkins, French and Goodwin are the only ones we can depend on for double digits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basebill123 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Hargrove got beat a few too many times due to poor defense but he was also unlucky that Maryville made several difficult shots where he had a hand in their face and he was in good position. He’ll get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he scored by forcing his way to the basket and getting fouled. He’s earned minutes but Maryville isn’t Kstate. rgbilliken likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
