And no one get down on Freeman. Played a great game, double double, the end was just inexperience and jitters.

Watching him play live you can see offensively he is very limited, has bad hands and doesn’t have natural instincts.  The box score lies with him sometimes (rebounding his own missed layups).  Defensively he has great instincts and will be our best defender since Marshall.  Hopefully he can bulk up and be able to go toe to toe with the bigs Buffalo & OU have.

Yup. Bad hands. No instincts.

2nd in the Mac and 40th in D1 in boards

1st in the Mac and 40th in D1 in blocks

Highest scoring % in D1

3rd leading scorer on the 20-21 Zips

 

Yup, you really called it.

He didn't have a great game against UB but ????

 

Rebounding his missed layups? He can't shoot 74% from the field for the season by "rebounding his own missed layups".

I hope Toledo gets in.  For Marreon Jackson's sake, mostly.

 

Does the NIT announce their field tonight?

A rare occasion where the MAC gets two teams in the NIT with both Toledo and Buff getting bids.  I know a lot of the blue bloods like Duke, Louisville, etc. declined to go, but it's still amazing that the MAC got 2 of the 16 spots this year.
