Lol, it was a horrible thing to do.....embarrassing actually. It's equivalent to high schools offering the students a free piece of pizza to come and root for their team. Look, I love the U of A, but lets be honest, no real college is running promotions like this.
Cleveland St & Wright State....I am short one. So I went and looked and found that there are a total of 14 public universities (I know the question was primary schools) http://www.opuac.org/
We all know that winning the MAC tournament is all about how well your guards are playing. Right now, I can't say that I am very confident in UA's guards to go very far in the tournament. Unless someone steps up, this might be the first time in a long time that I am not very confident going in to the tournament.
Again, too many things to look at to pick out one thing that cost them the game. - Jake & Reggie - 15 Turnovers - Getting crushed on the glass And yes, there will be a FT disparity when your guards don't drive to the basket. Buffalo's guards had 18 FT attempts, Akron's had 5.
This is exactly what you get from a young team...up and down. I said it before and I'll say it again..... When Tree got dismissed, this instantly became a 16-19 win team. They are what they are.
I hope Nyles doesn't see 1 more second on the floor. I know, not realistic but there is nothing that he does to make the team better when he is on the floor.
Seems like odd timing to call for a Deji start. Since his 8-11 night at OU, his minutes have increased to 20.5/game (season average is 18) and his shooting percentage is 30% during that time (45% for the season). For what its worth, 25 mins vs Miami and 3-10 from the field.
Based on how bad the ABJ is, I'm gonna say that they are the ones that screwed up. Sure things get proofread but that doesn't mean things don't slip through the cracks... you know, like key players names in a game, headlines...things like that.
