We can only hope the VOLS get these ugly games out of their system early…this one was hard to watch!! Even if we win…we loose!

Jetlag?

Jetlag?

People don't like excuses, but it seems that we seldom play well when we travel up that way. It certainly doesn't help that we get corrupt officiating.

I think it must feel like they are in a foreign country, and they have trouble adjusting. I mean, normally we should be able to find someone who is having a good shooting night, but when you have 10 players who can't hit the broad side of the barn, you know something abnormal is going on.

Could be a learning curve for the team to improve on for the rest of the season.

I totally agree, this very young team will develop maturity as season progresses. Still a great team!

Yeah 40 pt wins over 7-1 teams suck

Is it that hard to comprehend how to spell the word "lose"?

Not sure I'd call a team that starts a freshman, A super sr, a sr, 2 jrs and 2 Jrs off the bench very young.

First year players had more than 50% of the minutes versus TN Tech (11 point win). Over 36% of the Tx Tech minutes. 44% of the Colorado minutes.

I guess your definition of very young is different than mine. Grant's first season I think would be considered very young. Our 9 man rotaion is 5 Jrs and Srs a soph and 3 freshemen.

The sophomore played the last of 10x 2020-21 games on 1/2/21 and is learning a new system this season. 5 of the 1st 12 are freshman plus that sophomore. Half of the regulars very young. The 13th and 14th are also freshmen. You should be able to understand that.
