Ohio went about it in a little bit of a different way, doubling Enrique with the near defender and quickly retreating quickly on the pass out of the post and was relatively effective. With Sammy and Dawson being ineffective, the doubling of the post will continue as there's no disincentive to doing it.

On an unrelated note, App State beat James Madison yesterday dropping JMU into a third place tie in the Sun Belt. App. State has handed JMU its last 2 losses.

I would say that with Sammy and Dawson struggling and Nate out, Tavari may be the guy on the team other than Enrique and Ali to go get a hoop in the clutch.

The Zips stay on the road this Tuesday heading to Ypsilanti to face 9-11/2-6 Eastern Michigan. EMU is coming off of a ten-point home win over Buffalo. Their only other win was over PCCC. All-MAC 6’4” junior guard Tyson Acuff leads the Eagles and the MAC at 21.6 ppg. No other EMU player scores in double digits, with 6’2” sophomore guard Orlando Lovejoy as the second leading scorer at 9.4 ppg. They are 10th on scoring and 7tn is defense in the MAC. They’ve already won more games this season than they won all of last season during the Emoni Bates mess of a season.

The team needs more that 6 points total from Sammy and Dawson. I think Ali was likely pressing because there was so little help from anywhere else. Curse you Brad Bournival.

There always seems to be at least one of these steaming turds in every season. I just didn't feel good about this one going in.

Run the damn offense.

Now get some damn stops and make shots!

We really need that extra post player.

I'm not a math guy, but I believe 325>220.

Need someone like Tavari to step up as it appears guys like Hunter and Dawson didn't get on the bus.

Need some stops.

This is all Brad Bournival's fault.

My stream in fine but I am starting to wish it would just cut out.

Another steal wasted in transition.

Enrique just looked p!$$ed as they went to commercial. I've never seen that. Here's hoping that's a good sign.

Burn the tape of that half. Yikes.

His Bam Bowman training regimen is really paying off.

They're shooting 61%. Part good shooting; part bad defense.

They always seem to push it regardless of the numbers.

...and Thornton comes in for Tavari and immediately plays just like him with a turnover and a foul.

Halftime can't get here fast enough.

Have a seat Tavari. Get Thornton in.

Timeout Zips. Good Lord, that was an ugly damn stretch.

Letting a bad team back into a game. Miami dong a nice job of mixing up defenses.
