That was one frustrating night at Prudential Center. This loss bothered me way more than the Creighton loss. The atmosphere was luke warm, the students were not at their best and the team absolutely screwed up. Wusu had an abortion of a game on the offensive side. Whatever the opposite of Max focus is, we watched that. He's a better player than that. He is in an awful slump scoring 6 points in two important games. Hopefully, he gets it corrected.
Obviously, missing Richmond cast a mini dark cloud over the operation. His physical presence was missed in a big way. I thought Coleman stepped up and played his best BigEast game to date. That bodes well. I thought Brown played a respectable few minutes and did not hurt the team. So that's good too. I'm not sure why Sha did not play EHE in either game late with Bediako logging so many minutes. It looked like he had a breakout game vs SJU. He may add an extra or different component. If he's out there he may have drawn Oduro out of the paint and allowed Dawes and Davis more room going to the basket. Sha needs to coach every possession down the stretch. On this night Coleman and EHE may have been better alternatives to Wusu and a tired Bediako?? Anyway, we could go on and on. The bottom line is you would expect a loss at Marquette with or probably without Richmond. So, Sha has to zero in on the DePaul game next week. The team needs 7 more wins I believe by Selection Sunday. They better beat "" "" DePaul!!!
