Recruiting Football Talk VII

[vol4eva]

Believe it or not wearing your jammies inside out and throwing ice in the toilet doesn't make it snow. There are so many variables and the margin for error is so small that high expectations are not enough to win in March Madness. You can do everything right and still not get it done.

Excuse after excuse after excuse, tired of them

It's true, it's damn true..

Ok, Kurt.

This Freeman kid playing for Akron really reminds me of Grant Williams game.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Long Beach had a 35-34 lead late in the first. Zona currently leads 55-37.

Is that Pat Adams in the UNC game? Haven’t got a good look at him

Don’t think it is

It's not him

 

[MemphisVol3]

Can anybody tell me why Chreighton so badly underachieved this year? From what I'm seeing they have 3-4 Knecht level threats on the floor..

They're just a team full of shooters. They don't have a team full of all-americans, you just have to defend the 3.

Thanks for coming Long Beach State. Arizona up by 18 .
55-37 in 2nd half.

It's not excuses Mr Brilliance...it's the freaking truth.

Go be a fan of somebody else, but you should be aware, there is a 95% chance that no matter which bandwagon you jump on...you are going to badly disappointed.

Have a nice life

March Madness pretty dull so far. But it’s just getting started I guess.

 

[PassedOutAwake]

They just said Akron has only shot 4 free throws all game. Less than 3 minutes to go

 

[KptVFL]

Correction..they are 9-12 from 3...

That is all it takes to pull a big upset. Could happen to ANY team in this tournament!

I said "threats" not identical...Schierman in particular is a great player.

But anyway..the announcers were just saying that Chreighton only play primarily 5-6 players, so I would say they are prone to getting gassed with no depth...that explains a lot, and is a good reason they don't defend particularly well.

It's still better than being at work.

Chreighton is the 3 seed...lol...but I get what you are saying.

Trey Alexander is their go to guy if game is close.#23

 

[Jackcrevol]

Let me guess why you think that I won't though because I don't wanna get my hand slapped again...lol.

whatever your thinking is spot on.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Creighton moving on.

77-60

I hope whoever they play next, runs and presses the whole game. They're good but not a deep team.


*Akron's coach better tuck that lip in before someone trips over it.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

PAT ADAMS IS AT THE MOREHEAD ST/ ILLINOIS GAME!!

GO VOLS


*we still need to be watching for Teddy Valentine. He was Pat Adams' mentor.

Yeah that's what has beaten them in past games, depth and defense (or an off shooting game). They kinda live and die by the 3. IF we were to match up with them, we'll definitely have to close out on them, and can't overhelp.

 

[KptVFL]

Chreighton is the 3 seed...lol...but I get what you are saying.

Lol. Was speaking more in general.

I haven't gotten to watch any today but reading your posts reminded me of our Kentucky game.

Yeah I feel like that every year and then realize we're only 4 games into 32 games today and tomorrow...48 games through Sunday.

Madness is just outside the doors.

Morehead State tho

 

[BigSteve09]

most annoying nets in the world at the Arizona game

 

[Devo182]

Watching all these games there's only 1 reminder:

There are no easy outs. Every seed is playing tough. Nobody's putting any of these 64 teams away in just the first 20 minutes.
