Dunking the basketball. I think dunking is an attitude...shows aggressiveness and strength. It shows an offensive dominance by the post player. We are too finesse with our bigs and I would love for Tuttle and Olivier to have the attitude next year that "if I get within 5 feet of the basket, I'm putting it down!" Plus, way too many missed layups this year on those finesse attempts.

Re: To work on for next year...
Touche.
The first minute of this game showed us everything we needed to know about what was to come.
Missed layup on our end...the first of THIRTEEN. Allow me to repeat: THIRTEEN MISSSED LAYUPS.
Go down to the other end and a monster dunk by Carmichael.
Anyone who didnt think, "Oh boy, this could be a long one" at that point is kidding themselves.

Re: To work on for next year...
People can talk all they want about all the returning players and how much they will improve, I think it is utter b.s.
Unless this team finds a "man" to bang down low and command attention then next year's team is done already.

Re: To work on for next year...
At the risk of posting and getting grilled here again, I thought exactly the same thing watching the game. I've seen Seth with that attitude before, not sure if it was the fouls or something else but didn't seem to have that "if I'm within 5' of the rim I'm throwing it down" attitude (He seemed extremely tentative in the 2nd half). There were quite a few instances in the 2nd half where I thought several Panther players should have flushed the ball and tried to be too cute laying it up there.Originally posted by Panther-Sheik View PostDunking the basketball.

As I left the ScottTrade center today I saw a UNI fan with a shirt that read "Just Dunk It!"Originally posted by in_the_stands View PostWatching Koch miss bunnies reminded of Egelseder doing the same. Why are we dunk-averse?
I thought, we NEVER DUNK IT!
Maybe he started this thread...

Every time UNI made the big tourney they had some nice post play with some depth. The other years they just chucked 3's all game.Originally posted by 9YRPLAN View Postjfc christ man, tuttle is 19 years old, not to mention the fact that our style doesnt require some monster inside player. its just a bonus.

Tuttle is the best player on the team but he cant do it alone underneath.
