Cowboy II Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 -on the broadcast last night after one of the fouls of a 3pt shooter Rammer said something very close to 'why try to block a 3pt shot? you'll get it once and feel good but the other times you either foul or get out of position' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to throw off the shooter's vision of the hoop and you're still in front of them for a box out.. I know this is an exaggerated example and we don't have a 7'2" player on the roster but something like this cgeldmacher likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianstl Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Davidson scored 26 points total off of turnovers and second chances. Clean that up and we win by double digits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s strong enough to hold his position without pushing off. The early third foul in the second half was one of the silliest fouls you can commit, but as a result it forced him to play more with his feet and get his hands straight up. There were multiple times as the second half went on he made great plays because he was forced to play sound defense. Once he realizes he’s good enough to play straight up and use his legs he’ll be a force down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Don't want to go back through all 16 pages, but for the poster who mentioned Jimerson only shooting one FT for the Tech, but showing up as missing one on the initial game stats, that has been corrected. You can go to the SLU website game stats. Good catch. I guess in today's world, we should say, "First announced by XYZ." But I don't recall who XYZ is. billikenbill likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgeldmacher Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Back in town after a great weekend in Charlotte. Fantastic game. Got to see the breaking of the Belk Curse in person with 18 of my great college friends. The refs were terrible early on. You might have heard me yelling "7 to 1!!! 7-1!!!" at the refs in the first half on the broadcast when the fouls were 7 on us and 1 on Davidson. This brought out some chirping from the Wildcat fans, but that only made the experience more fun. If you ever want to do a road game, Davidson is a great option. Charlotte is a cool town with a Austin or Nashville kind of vibe. The streets are packed each night with people out on the town. Tons of restaurants and bars.

We did VCU a few years back. Very nice arena. I get the impression that it would have gotten interesting with their fans had we not been down so bad most of the game.
