RU choke not chop

Yeah, can’t kill Schiano for taking that TO. But more importantly, The Big 10 besides Ohio St and Oregon is not that good. I’m not impressed by Penn St and Indiana has no business being considered 1 of the top 12 teams in the country to make the CFP. A lot of average and below average teams in that league. Rutgers is clinging to the Average title of this year.

Wild Stats

Perhaps the craziest thing is that with those stats Sha is freaking out that we shot too many 3's.
I can see his point bc we tried to match Nickel from 3 but we only took 21/63 after only 12/55 the night before. It’s not like we were bombing. And given how much we stink from 2, 7/21 from 3 is an upgrade.

For the season it’s not part of our game at all; we’re 332nd in ratio after being 315th last year, 319th in Sha’s first year. There’s a trend here… lol. He wants this physical driving offense without outside shot makers. Or he can recruit/finance them.

Jerry on the game

Season is done. Feltons 3 looked smooth. Why not try to give him some time. Cant look any worse. I know we have to play dyland but.the wild drives and god awful passes, middleton looks like a thin erratic deer. Toumi has talen but again.those wild drives were ridiculous. Why not.try coleman, jenkins, jahseem. Our bigs get zero touches inside except for prince who looks awful. We cant even play any inside out game. Oir footspeed.is not very.good either. Our guards got stiffled. No quick 1st steps. Maybe time to slow it down to a snails pace. This is where i question, are they not coached well or they lack BE talent

It feels that way, yes. But it has to be played out nevertheless.
At this point, there's a chance Shaheen gets this team tuned properly in time for an upset run in the BET. Stranger things have happened.

Well

Yea this is a huge stretch, as bad as it has been. FAU isn't good -- fully expect a W tomorrow with a rested group. Monday is a win. NJIT is a win. Rutgers will be a tough game no doubt. And honestly we start the Big East schedule about as well as you can ask right now.

Villanova doesn't look good at all, despite Dixon. Even on the road that seems like a winnable game. It is hard to judge individual matchups this time of year, but Virginia (picked preseason 5th in the ACC) beat Nova by double digits, and Virginia looked like it didn't belong on the same court as St. John's last night.

And Georgetown despite having some real talent has seemingly struggled with various low/mid majors and got absolutely destroyed by Notre Dame, and I'm not sure how good Notre Dame is this year.
Who is going to guard Dixon?

We have a multitude of problems right now...we need at least one to resolve itself, so the others may fall into place.

Last year it was Dawes figuring out not to just chuck up shots and be more selective....of course that took until December, but lets see if some lightbulbs start to go off here....or if not, could be a very long year...
