This team is better without Geo (satire)

[Upstream]

Because everyone has to step up to replace what Geo brings, and McC and Young stepped up big time.

Imagine how awesome we'll be when Geo is back!!

No!

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We are better with Geo - but boy if we can develop others in his absence...

 

[BigEastPhil]

Please stop it!

I agree (after 1 game). Geo forces up too many 3s and the ball doesn’t flow as well. Guys were really moving w/o the ball and that provided great spacing.

 

[BillyC80]

I think he was joking.

 

[rufeelinit]

Some just can't enjoy the W

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Are u guys f’n serious?!?

We are in big trouble when we face well coach teams with athletic guards.

 

[kcg88]

Edit the title to add a sarcasm tag please.

 

[djrc89]

First game is always the gut check game. Fantastic win. Now is when it starts

 

[bac2therac]

no

 

[Scangg]

We rallied when EO got hurt last year and then sucked. We need Geo but the only irreplaceable player is Myles

 

[brad1218]

I hope that was sarcasm. We need Geo back ASAP!!! It’s unreal that he got hurt. When we play better teams we will absolutely need Geo. Just hoping we can hold serve until he gets back.

Awesome! For those not in the game thead, I joked about what the over/under would be on someone posting that we're a better team without Geo, guessing 10 minutes and I think Upstream hit it right at 10 minutes. Well played.

Please stop!!! Don’t ruin a great, gutsy Big 10road win with this nonsense!

 

[RU848789]

It's a joke, folks! Although maybe worth a wink in the thread title, lol...

 

[jerzeyguy]

Heck no lol. Geo is our best shot creator in the clutch, and just over all crucial moments. They'll be missing him in the tougher games

Did you happen to notice the caliber of Nebraska? Geos talents are going to be greatly missed when playing better teams with more athletic talents; teams that put pressure on guards and in clutch time

 

[Upstream]

I think he was joking.

Yes. In the game thread, RU#s commented on how long it would take for someone to start a "better without Geo" thread.

Obviously we're better with our best player healthy. But it is a really good sign that the other guys were able to step up to fill the void.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Absolutely NOT

Jacob and Montez are both very athletic. Our length also neutralizes a lot of speed advantages other teams might have.

NU is athletic but small. Geo is not a great ball handler or passer. It’s only 1 game but feel good about it.

 

[Jerzey11]

Nebraska sucks.

 

[Night Man]

The team isn't better without him (and I get that the thread is facetious) but I'm not so sure that the rest of the team isn't better without Geo. Everyone had to focus and step up and I think they're all capable of doing more.

[ScarletDave]

We didn’t necessarily need him to win against a team that has no real center as a threat inside. But when we can’t go inside this easy (see: rest of the conference schedule besides Nebraska again), we will desperately need him. He a McConnell are the only ones I trust in crunch time to dribble without turning it over

 

[RUAEPI]

What a stupid thread! Great win, and way to step up by the rest of the team. Let's hope we can get Gio back sooner, we will need him!

So instead of the Patrick Ewing theory we got the geo baker theory according to the OP. Someone email Bill Simmons.

I miss Peter Kiss threads

Speaking of which, does Geo injury mean that...........

I feel like Jimmy Smits has recovered in the 19 years since this article was written

Oh wow:
>> Currently, who are some possible Ewing Theory candidates?
