The Tale Of The Tape?

[ban basketball]

Bad shots. Yes, I'm a wrestling fan, first and foremost, but my knowledge of sports is best with basketball, as it is the sport that I played in high school.

I'm not the sharpest blade in the drawer, but I learned a long time ago through basketball that I played from a GOOD coach that that you MUST take good shots. The second half was defined by BAD shots, fueled by ESPN hype, and everyting else that I warned all of you about: too much talk with media about our shooting, and falling into that trap of shooting, but particularly taking BAD shots.

Certainly comforting to see that UNI has burned thousand of dollars on a coach that will continue to coach to take bad shots, only for all of us to feel ripped off in the end. Take your time and shoot GOOD shots, ok? You'd think that ahlf a million dallr coach a year would know how to coach that.

A good coach would have stopped that nonsense. A REALLY poorly executed game, folks. We should be proud of very little with that sorry job of coahing players to SLOW DOWN and take good shots.

Feel bad for nothing, other than a poor job of coaching and telling people to SLOW DOWN.

Pathetic...

Lame! (not the team. you.)

Yeah, there were a few bad shots.
But there were plenty of good shots too, but those weren't falling.

I had a feeling that after at least 5 games of decent shooting, we were at risk to have a bad shooting game. And MSU played good defense. (and had a bit of ref bias. Not terrible, but a little bit. But UNI should have expected that)

Re: The Tale Of The Tape?

You can coach all you want its still up to the players to make the shots and what shots they take, many times allot of those shots would of fallen just a bad night but blaming Coach Jake for it sure isnt the right thing and UNI sure hasnt burned thousands of dollars in waste on Jake thats for damn sure, UNI lost a tough game yes but they had their best season ever and it snot just about wins and losses Jake is a great leader to these kids, look at the teams GPA of over 3.0 as a team, you dont see the Tech fouls or the stupid arse show boating and crap like you do by players on other teams, tough loss yes but a bright future yet to come under Coach Jake and for UNI

that post might be in jest, but if its not, are you really ripping coaching when a team gets to the top 16 of 340+ but call out people for ripping coaching when a team gets 40th out of 80+?

Edit: I'm sure you're not serious and trying to make a point (or you're just an idiot), but comparing Penrith and Jacobson isn't even close.

I am honestly surprised a wrestling fan knows what a computer is.

You are an idiot. You know nothing about basketball. Crawl back under your stinky mat and never come back.
Thanks for a great ride Jake and all. Good Luck to seniors. Look forward to another great year next year!!!

This is awesome.

Also banbasketball I have a weird feeling that you hate UNI with comments like these. And you are a tool

What do you expect from someone that likes to grab crotches

Re: The Tale Of The Tape?

And they missed so many shots in the last portion of the first half and all throughout the second half because of...?

Sorry to break the new, but the statistics show us as I said...bad shots.

Really? Tell me how many second half shots were shot (1) on balance and (2) in an area that was a high percentage shot.

Watch ESPN tonight, and they will echo what I'm saying.

Wow, I know it takes a long time to type with two fingers but c'mon. You still haven't answered my question, how many shots did the coach miss?

I will be eagerly awaiting your response in 30 minutes.

The MSU defense.

Similar to how it ended up that many of UNI's opponents ended up missing quite a few shots..... because of UNI's defense. Or do all those teams just have terrible coaches as well?

Re: The Tale Of The Tape?

Maybe some balance from the Spartan side before I head out...

There are plenty of coaches making way more than Jacobson, coaching players with more raw physical attributes and just as much shooting prowess that suddenly turn in subpar shooting nights against MSU. UNI isn't the only one that knows how to choke the opposing side into offensive ugliness.

Besides, who else is better than Jacobson that would take the job for what UNI can pay? The pool is slim if it exists at all. If it does exist it's mostly people looking for a chance to build a name and move on.
