...take Kwadzo out of the !#@$ game until he learns to play as part of the team.

I know he can be great at times.

He can also keep the other team in the game for long stretches but doesn't come out of the game even when he makes bad decisions on 2 or 3 consecutive trips down court. And he loves to hold the ball and suck the life out of the offense.

I don't know what the deal is here. The whole team seems to be playing on the same page except this one guy who is reading his own book, and coach won't reign it in.

I'm pretty sure that holding the ball to some extent is part of Jake's gameplan.

Kwadzo I think only had 2 pts tonight, but he distributed the ball well. I will take his experience in the lineup every night

Hey, we're winning. Gotta stick with it. I love k-jo.

We kept ali in the games for the last few weeks when he wasn't hitting his shots. And tonight, it paid off.

Re: Jake, would you please...

Without Kwadzo this team is just better than mediocre IMO

Re: Jake, would you please...

Who was the last UNI point guard our fans were universally happy with? Darien Devries?

[Panther Daddie]

Re: Jake, would you please...

Without Kwazdo, UNI is a 16-8 or 17-7 team.

Re: Jake, would you please...

Every point guard in college basketball has stretches in games where they look like that. It comes with having your hands on the ball every time down the floor. With our record, you don't change what got you there.

I'm with KA. Keep him in the line-up.

Re: Jake, would you please...

Would like to see him drive all the way to the hoop more and not pull up for jumpers as much. I think they would foul him.

Re: Jake, would you please...

Hasn't it already been discussed that Jake creates open space for KA to drive? If you watch you can see everyone clear out. I don't know much about basketball anymore (my HS days were mostly 6-6 anyway) but it looks to me like it's designed to give KA room to create plays.

Wow. 22-2. KA is the starting PG. He knows his role. Tonight it was to lock down Young. Exactly how many points did Young have down the stretch? If KA stops playing defense...then he could come out of the lineup. Until then, he's much needed on the floor.
