Game 5: University of Virginia (Charleston Classic), Sunday, November 22nd, 9:30 PM, ESPN2

Need to tighten up our D to have a shot

 

[Bricker]

Good god....UVA knocking down every jumper. They have to be shooting like 70%

62% currently

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

Damn, we have 39 at the half. That's a ton versus UVA. Just need to defend the perimeter better...

 

[TweederGMU]

62% currently

Ugh. Hopefully that won't last

 

[Pikapppatri8]

This is great preparation for A10 play


Broads, Buicks, and Buckley

Look I am just happy we look like we aren't lost.

Jaire Grayer has 14 highly efficient points in the first half.

He has only missed one shot.

He is a freshman.

Amazing.

 

[Enforcer]

Yep, admirable showing so far.

 

[Vurbel]

Is there anything in this program that hasn't improved with the coaching change? Like, seriously.

 

[Sons of Mason]

Jalen is a turnover machine

Can't wrap my mind on how much he declined.

Halftime-We have to put more pressure on D. Getting to many easy shots. Our offense is looking good. Have to somehow get Thompson involved more. Someone one off the bench has to step up, hopefully that improves when Royal and Holloway returns.

 

[Herndon]

Ok boys, I have to go to bed, but I am perfectly satisfied with this performance. Tht's a top 10 team, and we look like we belong on the court with them. Yeah, they're better, and yeah they're going to win, but we look like we have a clue. that's all i wanted out of this year, and to have it 5 games in is a pleasure.

I think we look improved and are getting A LOT from freshmen and our existing players.

Coach P has done well thus far.


Broads, Buicks, and Buckley

 

[gmujim92]

We don't have anything defensively for a team of Virginia's caliber, mostly because we don't have enough bodies to be more physical and risk racking up fouls.

They're hitting shots because they're getting a lot of wide-open looks. That's what the No. 6 team in the nation is going to do.

 

[patriotchild]

We still haven't turned them over. One area we need improvement.

Agreed, again the TOs have been miscommunication and will diminish with more playing time.

Chank, what are your thoughts thus far?

Virginia is one of the best defensive teams in the country.

If we can score on them, we can score on anybody in the A-10.

That what has amazed me tonight. We could look better than the past 4 years, and still look like we shouldn't be on the court with UVa.

But alas...Paulsen has done a great job since the first two games

Chank, what are your thoughts thus far?


Broads, Buicks, and Buckley

Almost exactly what we all thought. If these same teams meet in 2 years, we have very different game.
