Season Tickets

BS. You enjoyed last season more? Last year everyone bitched the team could not score and they would rather lose in a high scoring offense. Now we have Ace and Dylan. There have been highlights all year. Maybe your expectations were higher and that’s what created the disappointment.

I said what I said.

This is the least amount of games I went to this year and it was by choice. And yes, maybe some of that is because we didn’t come close to expectations. Outside of a few games, this team lacks effort and a desire to win.

And I was definitely not one that said I would rather lose in a high scoring offense lol. I would watch the NBA if I wanted to see that.

It’s hard for me to watch a team that doesn’t know how to play defense or box out for a rebound.

It’s also not as fun to watch a brand new team every year with kids who are here for 1 year and have little attachment to RU, or freshman who may just ditch the program for a bigger bag after 1 year.

Watching Dylan’s and Ace was entertaining this year but most of their best games were away from the RAC. But I don’t watch college basketball to watch 1-2 superstars blow people away while the overall team plays like crud. Again, I would watch the NBA if I wanted to see that.

Pike lost me last night.

Ace and Dylan don't make hard cuts and they don't use screens properly. They aren't alone. Players need to cut as if they are going to get the ball. Screens need to be set and used properly to get easy baskets..
I'm glad that this isn't just me. This has been a big criticism of mine with Pike for years. Our screens and our cuts to the basket are weak and sloppy. Watch the play at the end of the first OT vs ND in the NCAAs. RHJ basically jogged to the basketball instead of jammin long and cutting hard to the ball.

OT: Stormy and Potentially Snowy from about 2/8-2/22? (pg 9); OG Thread: Cold and Potentially Snowy Pattern Likely for Most of January

Dan Zarrow 101.5 has officially jumped on the hype machine. He has turned into a weenie in recent years which is disappointing since he was always conservative, He said this is the biggest storm he has ever seen. Could be 0 to over 2 feet for our area but of course he put in the always important disclaimer.
