Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

I am out on Rick Barnes. It’s probably an overreaction, but his basketball style bores me to death.

Lol… first game you’ve watched this year huh?

 

[SpringBokVol]

Really embarrassing. Out coached. And our guys lack effort. They play soft. Resistance bothers them. Unreal.

Nah. Being down 20 is boring. Barnes is fine. This is what, the third game?

I did think we'd put a better showing on the floor tho. Nova just shoots lights out...

Nope it is who he is. He changed is style to allow more threes, but we run no screens for shooters, and no ball screens for our point guards.

charge extra for espn plus but espn news by god...

Nope, I have watched all of them this year. I knew the three point shooting would not hold up against a quality opponent.

Why would anyone want to watch the basketball game?

 

[engineerVOL]

Was that the worst half of basketball youv’e seen from a Barnes-coach team? I threw the towel in at 24-11.

 

[SpringBokVol]

line has gone from an open of -19.5 for tOSU to -52.5 in less than 2qtrs,

And I thought MSU would cover

 

[Adam2014]

Also, playing Fulkerson and Uros at the same time is a crime against humanity. I like Uros, but the fact that he has a scholarship at Tennessee is egregious.

I watched the whole thing. It didn’t get better. Turnover after brick after turnover. Bad defense and no effort. Soft. All the way around.

Andy way out coached.

I couldn’t care less about skin color changes. It’s not like that’s a major point for any of those characters. The only character that their skin color is repeatedly mentioned is Rand looking like an Aiel

I’m sure rand will still be the dragon they just chose to get rid of the Lews Therin prologue so they’re making it more a surprise.

Race change is a major point and stupid. Plenty of time to include different races in lands outside the Two Rivers. Descriptions of how the main characters look are major parts of book 1.

Had to turn it off. Just making me mad.

Let’s see how the second half plays out. Shots have to drop eventually. Vescovi needs to sit. 1-7 from three with four turnovers I think. Singlehandedly ending 10 possessions.

I can't get over how small and unathletic we look.

This looks like when a 8 or 9 seed Minnesota or Georgia Tech get blown off the court by Gonzaga in the opening weekend of the tournament.

You cannot very well sit your leading scorer haha.

But Barnes pulls Chandler immediately when he makes a mistake because hes a freshman. Sitting Chandler for so long killed everything.

 

[franklinpence]

When the team has 15 at the half, I’m perfectly fine sitting the leading scorer if he has the stats Vescovi does.

 

[gainesvol82]

Not sure if I'm more angry about this Villanova game or the WoT, lol. That charge against Chandler changed the game. Ended up causing him to sit most of first half.

 

[JacketVol]

You don't judge a coach or a team in one game. A lot of new guys trying to gel but the turnovers are pissing me off. No reason to not take care of the ball. The refs suck and one charge, their guy was in the arc. Regardless, Chandler getting the two fouls early killed us because we still do not have a real PG outside of him. Sergio Valente is a good shooting guard but should never be at the point. This was the worse half that I can remember this team ever having. Playing for the last shot and then giving up a layup not on a turnover but after a missed shot is horrible. Not sure what I would do as a coach in that locker room. Go too nuts and lose the young guys because it looks like a panic type reaction. Sounds like some of these posts about being out on Barnes. Just like every good coach we have had. Let's get rid of them so we can go back to being a crap show. Fulmer would not be here today if we had kept him in 2007 but the last 15 years would not have been as bad as they have been.

Probably needed surgery…that happens much quicker now. They even put pressure on it and do two MRI scans to determine the level of injury. Sometimes can be determined with plan X-rays stressed and non stressed views.
Treatment for the high ankle sprain has come a long way over the past decade.

I also had a spiral fractured 2nd metatarsal. Injured the 1st of November. Saw the trainer about it and was dismissed. Definitely rebroke it several times that wrestling season, and was continually told to "suck it up" by the trainer. Rolled into soccer season playing on it. Foot aches and pains continually.

June rolls around, and I say I've had enough. Go in to Franklin Bone & Joint - boom. Spiral fracture that had healed back perfectly. He said, "You should've had surgery and been in a boot for a few months. It's a miracle this healed."

May very well see this in that Ole Miss-Vandy game later too. Corral playing his last home game. Gonna put up crazy numbers on defensive guru Clark Lea.

I put $1 on msu to cover,
