Great effort. Proud of the boys. OSU has some athletes and some men.

I'm fairly certain their average age is less than the bradley team. I think we were "the men" in this game.

We lost to a good team.
We didn't do this or that, they did this or that... blah, blah, blah.
I am not happy about it.
But we lost to a good team.
If/when we lose to bad teams - I get really ticked off.

I was merely quoting some posters over the summer expressing how great AW was. I think he has the potential and I don't buy the 6-5 arguement..Kobe Bryant is 6-6 and I won't even bring up Ben Gordon.
AW needs to step up period. CR needs to step up period. This team is going nowhere if we only get 9 points TOTAL from them in a game.
You have got to be kidding! Poor execution, lack of focus....what game were you watching?

The only time this team plays at another level is when they are trying to not get embarrassed. Then they pick it up and start to come back but deep down you still know it's a mountain to climb and it's unlikely it'll happen. Then they get even closer and choke when it's crunch time. Maybe they should act like they are losing by 20 and about to get embarrassed every minute of every game, maybe then we'll show some top of the valley talent.
Same old story, get off to a lead and then substitute and break our run at the 1st 4 min. timeout, Maniscalco and McCain on floor at same time equals bigger defecits, McCain still struggling and continues to get too many minutes,(I thought players had to earn their minutes on the floor) we also left their 3 point shooters wide open so we could double down on the post, A. Warren needs to toughen up if he expects to play against the big boys. Poor fundamentals leads to bad games which in turn leads to losses, this team has potential but right now I wonder if we will see the players that perform the best on the court, Sam M. probably should not have played tonight because of his ankle injury, he appeared to be favoring it most of the night.

SM was the only threat we had outside of TB. He was clutch as always and has only solidified his spot on this team in my mind....not that it was in any danger.

Good offensive game from TB with 21 points. Too many missed layups. AW made his first shot and missed his last 7. CR made 0 shots and was 5 for 10 from FT line. 40% from the field, 58% from FT line, 10 to 15 assist to tournover ratio normally means you get beat by double digits. I hope we have a better effort tomorrow.
I've grown really tired of the offense BU runs. The bigs screening at the top of the key and rolling to the basket. Either they're never open or they don't throw the ball to them. It invites all of the illegal screens that get called on BU and just seems to cause a lot of dribbling. The ball movement has been lacking. One man's opinion.
We get called for the most moving screens then any other team, your right in that we only use our bigs to screen which in turn keeps them from setting a good post down low, hard for our center to score much when he is out of position most of the game.
I really feel sorry for EM. He is really stuggling. He can't make a basket if his life depended on it. I feel that the coaches are making his lack of self confidence even worse by playing him so many minutes . When he is on the floor we are actually giving up points. I just don't understand the coaching decision to play EM as many minutes as he does. I am at a loss!

Once again, BU plays beneath its talent level. When in the world are our coaches going to be able to teach WE how to set a good LEGAL pick? This isn't rocket science---It's just good teaching or the lack thereof.
What really concerns me is if this apparent inability to teach fundamentals is also occuring in other areas such as rebounding and defense.
Again, AW disappeared and has shown that he cannot seem to elevate his game to a consisntly good level---Good game---bad game ---good game---bad game.
Nothing different from EM. Same ol - same ol
Looks like 6th in th valley is about right.
Again, our only real plus is TB but he cannot carry this team on his back all year.
We may be in for another disappointing season---I hope not but it now looks very possible.

You know what I mean.
You need to be following a Pro team if that's your attitude. They can throw $ at the problem to fix it. This is college.
Do you even know that we were playing a top 25 team that may be top 10 by the end of the season?
How many times in the last 40 years have we. We are BU. We are what we are.
I can agree with this statement. This offense just is not effective for a poor shooting team (which we have been the last two years).
What would you suggest? Benching him to totally shatter his confidence.

As a matter of fact I didn't know what you meant. I wasn't taking a shot at you I was merely stating that I think they had a younger team when you stated they seemed to be the men (i.e. older).
We have 3 sophomores that are the age of Juniors (TB, WE, AT)
We have a junior the age of a senior (AW)
We have a 6th year senior
One of our juniors has experience like he's a senior and then some (SM)
Another sophomore started much of his freshmen season (EM)
Overall I was making the point that I think we have a very experienced team and were the older team. In no way was I taking a shot at you or being obtuse.
