Schasz Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Well the one thing to worry about was a hangover from the Dayton loss. By the looks of our starters I'd say they were shite faced (17 points). No way to paint this but as a bad loss. Davidson was ready to play their game and the Bills were not. Back to the drawing board. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mrjoelabs Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 One thing being overlooked is that Davidson's losses were not as bad as they seem. Wake and Vandy were bad losses. Most of the rest of them were not. Lost in A10 to Dukes, Rhody and Richmond. Lost to Auburn, Temple, Marquette. Those 6 losses are not really bad. Charlotte is a toss up, winning record. If we played that schedule, may have more losses.. However, its still win at Dayton and pretty much every other game or its over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
3star_recruit Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Yuri's 2nd foul was the play of the game. Got down too much early and guys were playing catch up the rest of the game. Both calls were BS but it just goes to show we have almost no margin for error on the road. He's the only guy we have who can drive and dish against a packed defense. Either Thatch's defense or Jimerson's offense could have tipped the scales in our favor. Take your pick. I'm rooting for Dayton and VCU to run the table, except for when they play us.

Sigh. Every year of Ford's tenure has seen a depleted roster that never reached its full potential. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Before tonight he’s been > 11 points every game but tonight and Eastern Washington and has only scored more than 20 like 3 times. He’s been arguably one of the most consistent players we’ve ever had. French for sure has been a lot more volatile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, Weaver and Perkins combined to shoot 10-19 from 3, rest of the team, 0-7, pretty much how Davidson drew it up, limit Goodwin & French and takes our chances that the rest of the crew can't do enough to beat us.

glazedandconfused Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 This will be a problem going forward too. You can bet every opposing coach is looking at this game and is going to duplicate it with (some teams) more athletic players. And Weaver and Perkins are not going to be this hot every game. This is a major flaw the coaching staff needs to figure out before this gets ugly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
3star_recruit Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Goodwin is a fantastic college player but it's games like tonight that show what his limitations are at the next level. If you dare him to shoot from 15 feet and out, he may hit a couple, but not enough to worry about. Slowry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

willie Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 McKillip showed how to defend the Bills. Pack the middle, don’t let French or Goodwin get to the rim. In spite of Weavers good game we don’t have enough outside shooting to open the middle. Ford’s options are obviously limited but I think I would try the pressing/ trapping game. The best run we had tonight came off turnovers. Our options are limited. Coach314 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BillsCPA Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Awful game. Have a feeling we are going to drop some easy games going forward. On a positive note I was able to meet the southeastern contingent of Bills board posters. Greatest looking group in the arena. RiseAndGrind 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
