@Richard Schnyderite - please lock/delete the one I added a few minutes ago.

 

[bac2therac]

More students than last game

 

[shields]

Game is starting late.

 

[FrankZ]

Game is starting late.

Yep. Looks like wbb game before.

 

[NickKnight 1]

Game is starting late.

Why?

 

[usfruno1]

Is there an estimated start time.
I am watching the BTN+ log on my not that Smart TV

 

[armenius]

should be any minute now. the women's game ended at 8 apparently

 

[FrankZ]

Here we go

 

[zebnatto]

Do not like Myles body language.

 

[FrankZ]

Mathis came to play

 

[Degaz-RU]

Do not like Myles body language.

Yeah Myles has to hit that 5 foot bank shot.

 

[zebnatto]

Yeah Myles has to hit that 5 foot bank shot.

And wake the f up.

 

[BillyC80]

Paul getting good rebounding position. Good to see.

 

[BillyC80]

Young likes to dribble right to set up his power move to the left.

 

[zebnatto]

Very sloppy.

 

[BillyC80]

Jacob looking a little selfish again.

 

[BillyC80]

Harper with the answer!

 

[BillyC80]

Carter has to make that.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

What's RUs shooting % so far?

 

[bac2therac]

Not very sharp.. forcing passes and not finishing

 

[BillyC80]

Harper!

 

[bac2therac]

Our inside game will be a huge issue against quality programs....especially with foul trouble. Our bigs arent finishings against weaker competition

 

[ScarletDave]

Look like the Bryant RU not the Niagra RU again. Sleep walking through the OOC will lose us a game that we shouldn’t and end any point before the conf play even starts. You have to try and focus EVERY game. If they sleep walk again it’s on Pike

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

No excuse to sleepwalk, if they are doing so.

 

[FrankZ]

Our inside game will be a huge issue against quality programs....especially with foul trouble. Our bigs arent finishings against weaker competition

Yep. Front court has a long way to go.

Team has a long way to go too.

 

[RUChoppin]

We're allowed to hit both FTs in a 1-and-1?

 

[BillyC80]

This half belongs to Harper.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

They must be playing like dog shyte again

 

[bac2therac]

Perimeter defense is abysmal and lack of bigs on either end a huge issue

 

[zebnatto]

How many threes over MM?

 

[bac2therac]

Yep. Front court has a long way to go.

Team has a long way to go too.

Ya think we miss Eugene?

 

[BillyC80]

Would like to see us dribble less and pass more to get good open looks.

 

[rcube1994]

Montez getting torched on the 3s, thought he was a better defender.

 

[ScarletDave]

Typical low major team that comes into the RAC and shoots lights-out from behind the arc. Inability to defend the 3 still killing us

 

[cubuffsdoug]

I don't like playing smaller schools because they don't have enough talent to compete, so they chuck a crazy number of 3s. The laws of average means they will make enough to make the game competitive or even still a game.

 

[BillyC80]

Get Caleb in to defend the three.

 

[bac2therac]

Young is terrible

 

[Mr Magoo]

Young looks terrible

 

[BillyC80]

Missing a ton of shots underneath and surprisingly we’re not getting fouled on those misses.
