Up Next: Stanford

Re: Up Next: Stanford

This... I am not that disappointed. Late night game last night and turn around and play today at 2. That is tough.

agree, but it really didn't matter. We lost this in the first half by not taking advantage of Stanford foul trouble. We (Mitchell mainly) turned the ball over again & again & again & again...

Sorry Willie, but that is a BS excuse. Both teams played yesterday. If it was because our starters were gassed, then we should have substituted more.

You are right, but the selection committee will not care about that or the fact we were screwed last night come March if we are on the bubble. No excuses, we need to beat Memphis and Memphis needs a win just as bad as us.

I hope the guys use this embarrassment as motivation and fuel and don't lose confidence. We have many quality opponents left to play and we can use these results to help us better prepare and execute vs Memphis, st marys, iowa, GM etc.

tuttle was MIA for last 2 days. this killed us.

Deon is good but lacks confidence at times.

Tuttle helps deon. without tuttle taking it hard to the hoop puts a lot of pressure on deon.

Sonnen is truly a stud. I hope he stays on and coaches next year. I have always liked this kid.

I love koch, I would take him on my team any day. Dead tired in second half though.

AJ reminds me of my brother. Good athlete, smart, knows what to do ,BUT just spaces off in the middle of a dribble (and dribble and dribble) from time to time. That is just who he is. Not a personal failure or anything just spacey type. My brother never changed.

I agree. We did well with guys off the bench. But then coach jake put the starters back in. we will need the bench a lot this year. Seems like a good time to let them play a little. Seriously!!

We will be in the mix for the valley title I think.

I am upbeat. Talent.

Can we beat memphis? Hell yes!!!

They played at 2, we played at 9:30. There's something to be said for that.

Re: Up Next: Stanford

Won't get any easier with the competition this season. Still have plenty of opportunities to get the quality wins, but it'd be nice to see this team take advantage of the opportunity they were given to play in such a marquee tournament. 3 losses to quality opponents will help us in the long-run regardless, but a win vs. top-25 Memphis would look great.

Some of the Panther players (Tuttle, Mitchell and co.) haven't looked their normal selves, but the players they've been going up against have been unreal. It's been frustrating but it's still got to be taken into perspective the competition we're up against this weekend.

Re: Up Next: Stanford

We have been in each of these games with chances to take control and we've simply failed to do so. We just aren't clicking right now on both sides of the ball. Toledo the offense was firing but the defense was absent. Louisville the defense was good but the offense sucked. Today...neither showed up. This is some of the best talent we've ever faced this early in a season and it's been a tough adjustment. Some of these guys are getting the first meaningful minutes of their careers, others (AJ) are getting the first minutes of the season. That's a tough challenge and I think the most frustrating part of this is that we know we should've been in this game and it should not have been a 16 point "blowout". 0-3 was a very likely scenario in this tournament and a lot of us are simply frustrated that we are staring it right in the face. These are VERY good teams we are playing, teams that will very likely be playing in March too, just like us once things start coming together.

Re: Up Next: Stanford

Tuttle was there guys, getting some rebounds the last two nights just not the 12 points offense we know. He's post defense is better too. But without Koch guarding the LU bigs we chould of been blowen out easy last night. Like it or not some posters, he's our best big man defender we got. The Valleys got a couple big ones we got to slow down.

[williebat]

No doubt tough competition. guess I was hoping that some would say that about tuttle. Guess not
