GDT: Duck Fayton

[wgstl]

I love how we let them set up a half court defense. So nice of us. Very thoughtful. 

[cgeldmacher]

I don’t thinking’s ever seen Goodwin to appear to lose his composure, but he looked that way at the end of the half.  Not in an angry way, but in an I don’t seem to know what to do so I’m not going to give much effort kind of way.

Yuri didn’t seem to care enough at the end to know how much time was left.

Only guy who seems on his game is Hargrove.  Hopefully, we see a lot of him in the 2nd half.

Got to stay with the guys that got us here.  Goodwin will do better and so will Perkins.  French tries to do too much.

Hang in there we were down 20 a long time ago in the pit in New Mexico on a NIT game and won.  Charlie Newberry had a great game.

 

Disagree. This team has the talent to play fresh bodies. This isn't the lisch-liddell team.

 

Totally disagree with you.

[basebill123]

we are a headcase team.  great when we get momentum but b-holes get super tight when we get behind.  

[HoosierPal]

Tshimanga has more rebounds than our three bigs combined. Who said he was nothing?  

[NoCoBillsFan]

The funniest part about this is that we were trying to push Goodwin as an All-American before this game. And he’s completely invisible right now. Those games against weak Fordham and La Salle teams had us all fooled.

Did Goodwin play that half?

Jim Crews’ worst Billiken team would’ve been competitive with us that half

This is too far

How do you know it’s lack of preparation?

Isn’t it just as likely to be lack of execution?

The Bills started off the half with 3 great looks from 3. 2 for Jimerson and 1 from Perkins....Missed them all. 

That’s when the panic set in.

I don’t think it’s preparation but missing open shots.

if they hit those wide open threes this is a completely different game.

You can’t be serious. No s*** it’s also lack of execution but you have to have a contingency plan for when things aren’t going right. What is one adjustment Ford made that half?  
 

We cut it to 3 points and he yanks Hargrove and puts French back in. Three minutes later we are down 18. That’s inexcusable

If you're long enough on the perimeter and big enough inside, Bully Ball can be neutralized.  Richmond doesn't have the personnel.  VCU does.  Hopefully they stick to havoc-lite and and don't take the lessons from this game.

Bang. He got it.

C’mon, stop the cheap shots on our seniors.

Maybe, but I can safely say Brett Jolly would’ve looked at least as good out there as Has did that half

[Pistol]

Would've been nice to know before turning this game on that I was sitting my four-year-old down to watch a snuff film.

[basebill123]

refs come out and call 15 fouls in 5 minutes to hit quota like last game?

They cannot help themselves this game has really brought out the best in this GDT.

Not a doubt in my mind Dayton will be in the bonus within 9 minutes

[RiseOfTheBillikens]

I'm physically ill

[Tonka]

Put in Russell and Strickland

[slu72]

How did Fordham ever beat UD?

I don’t know what Ford is telling them to do during timeouts.

I do know the Bills are being out rebounded by 4, shooting 30 percent, and turning the ball over at twice the rate of Dayton.

This team is athletic enough, talented enough and deep enough to not have to play bully ball every trip.  It is up to Ford to make the adjustment to Grant’s game plan. He hasn’t so far.

Doesnt matter you can’t play that bad and blame refs 

[SLU_Nick]

I can’t remember being this angry in a long time on a GDT.  Even with LaSalle we sort of had an excuse.

we look completely unprepared, outcoached and scared.  Not even competing.
