Over the past few weeks I’ve seen several ppl say this team could win the A10T or something along those lines and I’ve been just mind blown. Belmont and uab are not special teams. And we played auburn “close”. It’s an nit team which given the loss of Perkins, is fine. I’ll be honest, I told my friend to take the umass spread tonight, I didn’t think we would win. Yep. I don't think this one is really on Ford as much as Belmont and UAB as well. He can't play defense. He pressed. He did everything I wanted in the Belmont and UAB games. Just didn't get it done. And refs handed them some points. End of story. Old guy and A10Ref like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Bird Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 does Ford do any prep at all? Stop Fernandes and we win easy. McKillop had Davidson totally prepared to win at a tough VCU. This stinks. Billy Ken likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A10Ref Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Oldest excuse in the book, but, looking at the stats, the only difference was free throw attempts. That bald ref had it IN for us. Should never have been close anyways, but we win with a neutral whistle. I hate everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I don’t understand why, when we needed a 3, we had Yuri, Traore and Thatch on the floor. I don’t know why Nesbitt didn’t play during crunch time but Rashad Williams got his first minutes of the game then. I don’t understand why we were switching everything when UMass was clearly hunting the 15 switch so Fernandes could iso a big man. I don’t get how that was not a foul on Weeks.

NoCoBillsFan Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Imma hold my hot takes tonight.

What is on Ford is going to Traore over Linsenn when needing a basket towards the end. Not only putting him in but running the action to him! Also why is Fred thatch the one getting a dribble hand off three attempt there when Gibson is in the game. If he’s our “scorer” this year he cannot be on the other side of the court from the ball in that situation. That’s all on coaching and being prepared for those types of situations so you’re not scrambling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 We aren't very good but we should still beat UMass. Maybe we will Sunday. When you allow 91 points, that falls on the players and the coach. Jimerson took 1 shot in the last 4 minutes and it was with 1 second left. So at least the idea that his lack of big shot making costs us games can be put to rest. Nobody is a big shot maker. And apparently nobody is a defender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I started watching this with zero passion. It was looking like a game we usually puke up. No rivalry. Team that was 0 and 4. Road game. No atmosphere. And my realization that this team is incredibly lacking from a complete perspective. Maybe they’ll rebound and blow these bums out Sunday. Likely. But that’s mediocre all over —— up one week, down the next. I have tickets at Duquesne. No way we lose to them. But we likely will. Passion is gone.

NH Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 What’s the point of having Traore in the game at all if we’re going to switch everything? It certainly can’t be for offense, given that he hasn’t scored in his last 42 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
