Fordham in game
- Thread starter gospidersgo
- Start date
Did Mooney call a timeout after that 3 to break our momentum again?
And will win us many more in the future
Thank goodness we have all 2 games a week left. The bye week efforts are just lethargic
Thankfully Fordham is not very good. It’s with their help UR won this game. A win is a win. So the bubble still has air.
Hope the bus stops and picks up Nick and Grant in New Jersey where they left them before the game.
Would rather look ugly winning than look good losing. Go Spiders!
Exactly, we didn’t have Blake and Burton last year and would have lost this game by 10.

76 mins of play accounted for 11 points on 4-18 shooting -- cannot win many games with that combination. TG for Gilly Blake and Tyler today
Lots to work on but the win keeps the season alive. Nice games from Jacob, Blake and Tyler. Need to not have the two most experienced players on the team disappear in these games though.
Tyler needs to start in place of Nick.
There seems little doubt that Burton needs to be seeing 20-25 minutes AT LEAST in every game from here on out. The increased minutes should come mostly from Sherod, but can sorta go with the hot hand theory but the plan has to be to find Burton minutes. Period.
And I REALLY don’t want to have any games were CM is saying after the game “yeah I need to be playing him more” after playing him for 8 minutes.
I’d also strongly consider going small at times when Grant is going to be out with Cato/Burton at 4/5 and Gus in for Sherod. and really see if we can’t pressure a lot with that group. I think that group could be a great change up group and change tempo etcc

Burton just shy of a double-double 8pts and 9 rebounds in 15 minutes.
We’re a better team when Burton is playing more. Wonder when the coach will realize this?

Agree with this, but I don't think we are built to play that style for 40 minutes a game. Really love it to change the pace of the game.

That was among the worst 10 minutes of basketball I've seen us play in a really long time. It was a dreadful first half, glad to see the guys somewhat get it together in the second half.
While I don't think we should be ecstatic about the effort, good teams don't fall apart and lose to bad teams, so at least we managed to maintain that theory.

Amazing. When’s the last time we had anyone get that many rebounds in that few minutes?
I feel like Sherod and Francis don’t blend very well together. Hope they can figure that out soon.
Not sure, but he did have 14 points, 9 Rebounds in 21 minutes last time we played LaSalle...
Sometimes when you wrestle the pig, it is not pretty...but we found a way to keep hope alive. On to La Salle. Let's wrestle that pig down again!
I think it might be the perfect tonic to get Nick playing better.
I read or heard where Nick is always in the gym shooting. Maybe he should back off a little.
If you watched them in person today,they are 2 very different ballplayers.
Francis’ descriptor as ‘a more aggressive Sherod’does not properly or adequately describe Francis’ much greater BBall abilities.
Yes.There was.Very vocal.Huge brunch turnout.Sections 111,112,and parts of 113 occupied by mostly UR folks.
What were you saying about Sherod after the Davidson game???????
Let's leave Nick alone. He has come up big in big spots this year.
