Can't make simple things called... FTs.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

Have we ever in my 20+ years of being a fan had a team that can make an important FT?

What a terrible terrible game and a disappointment to the season.

 

[KAOriginal]

Edwards should take a year off English's contract for this sh*tty end of season.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

About what I expected for the season in total....Unfortunately, not how I expected it to play out during the course of the year....Train needs to get back on the tracks next year.

 

[GMUYoda]

Remember when I made that post earlier in the season concerning our FTs? About how it was basically 60% each game?

Mmmhmmm

 

[EXpatriot13]

Really disappointing second half of the season, and this is really just icing on that depressing cake.

No excuse for how those last two meaningful possessions turned out. Zero touches by our main guys.

As a buddy just texted me. “At least we don’t need to worry about a team coming to scoop CKE after this performance”

I wouldn't be as concerned if there wasn't this obvious regression toward the end of the season, from players and game planning. Perplexing.

 

[GSII]

Polite with two play calls at the end??? Oduro doesn't touch it???? Is Hewitt calling plays?

 

[sleeperpick]

He needs to hire a x and o guy because lord knows Felton isn’t and I am doubting simp and Nate are either. Really bad play calling this season

 

[GMUYoda]

This is an annoying loss. Yeah, I agree with all the comments above about how great we played, the comeback, the fight in this team.

But if we make our FTs, we win. Make. The. Free Throws. Teams are going to start fouling us late in the game and realize that this is a team that won't make free throws in the clutch. When it's 5 seconds left up 2 and you go to the line for 2... I want to be confident that we are going to make our free throws... not nervous as hell hoping we make them

This team will not go far in the a10 tournament if we do not make simple things like free throws. End of story.

Called it

I’m honestly relieved the season is over. I look forward to seeing a completely revamped roster next year. Most importantly, I hope Kim learns from the mistakes he made when evaluating this season, because many of our issues went beyond a limited roster.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

Neptune depants him in this game....Hopefully, lessons are learned.

 

[GSII]

Neptune actually learned from Jay Wright. Was there for what 7 yrs? You can tell he is wiser than KE.

 

[Quentin Daniels]

Fordham has held teams to under 50 points just four times all season and Mason was two of them. I don't want to over-react after a really disappointing loss, but 3-9 w/losses to Fordham (2x), UMass, and La Salle is not a great finish to the season.

We have got to find or develop someone else who can play in the low post. Someone who can drive to the rim and someone who can create their own shot and hit a midrange jumper would also be nice.

 

[GMUgemini]

Told everyone that Neptune is ahead of English right now.

And we’ve got Loyola-Chicago coming in.

Finished behind Fordham and GW. We might finish 10th next season.

 

[GreenLantern]

Bleach. That is all

This is what has been missing since Coach L. Except for 1 or 2 stinker years, in general...his teams were always playing better late in the season.

The last 3 coaches generally...you barely saw any progress at all......

 

[Junkees9]

Horrible, horrible shooting. And Gaines with ZERO points.
