Ulis Chewing On Skal

[jedwar]

Good. Anyone catch that after the Willis drive and 1

 

[CatPhight_rivals65113]

Skal looks like Perry Stevenson incarnate over the last 2 weeks.

 

[TBCat]

Good. Maybe Ulis' fire will grow on him. If Skal had even half Ulis' toughness he'll be a top pick for sure.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Yes. He needs to.

 

[IIIBradIII]

I'm glad he is. Skal looks totally lost out there. Needs someone to wake him up, if he had it in him that is...

 

[NavyKat]

I realize Skal is playing his 8th college game, but damn. He looks lost and is weak when playing in the post. Giving us nothing.

Pop tart stevenson?

Perry may not have been as bad as Skal...

It was bound to happen eventually. We've been lucky in that none of our highly rated recruits have been a bust. That's a testament to Cal's ability to identify talent and get them to play hard. I think because of the lack of competition that Skal played against it was difficult to tell that he is Charmin soft.

 

[prossdog_rivals]

So weird cuz Skal looked amazing in a couple games. He's just disappeared the last couple.

 

[Xception]

Skal is not assertive and he needs to be , he wants to be a role player and not one of our top players . Hopefully it dawns on him and the light goes off but i wouldn't expect that anytime soon , maybe late in the season .

 

[3 fan_rivals214492]

He is ours so we love him but damn he sucks right now

Not really. He hasn't played a full game yet. Can get away with coasting against lesser competition. When the competition gets better, it gets you embarrassed, which is what has happened to him tonight.

 

[Rem08]

LOVE seeing that from Ulis.

 

[GoCats2009]

Ulis is the heart of this team. it's good to see him taking a leadership role.

 

[Stonewall12]

Ulis needs to do that every game.

 

[dckala2_rivals16641]

Good. Skal is softer than a roll of charmin.

 

[MudRiverCat]

Needs to get in Poythress as well.

 

[dnabbott25]

Skal will be fine, but he looked lost. He hacks reaches and jumps on top of guys on D. Brisco was the only one who showed up tonight.

 

[Bombur]

You misspelled Skoal

 

[WildMoon]

I wonder if Coach Cal will start playing Humphries over him. Getting less than 5 rebounds per game from your center is asking to lose the game.

Rebounding is Cal's biggest pet peeve, and he ain't doing it.

Hey! Dont talk that way about Perry S. He was productive at least.

Dunno if I'm allowed to link KSR, but I can't repost the video on phone. They report it as Ulis telling Skal to "man up" but I only see "cmon" out of
Ulis, plus a shove. Interesting.

It's only December 3rd

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

PG coaching on the floor.
Nothing more

 

[RACdad]

Looks like he's saying "play smart"

 

[Nubb16]

Confrontation? Ulis was trying to get him to stop being a *****

 

[zannmann]

Everyone who played tonight had more boards than Skal. Hell Hawkins had more.

 

[billyclydegillispie]

perry stevenson was a hell of a lot tougher than skal.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

I liked it but I honestly felt bad for Skal after seeing his reaction. Most guys would have gotten mad and went back at Tyler but it looked like Skal was shocked and was thinking "why would you do that to me."

That reaction added with his play, facial expressions and just the way he carries himself shows that he's really soft and wants no part of contact. Like somebody said earlier, he looked like a baby deer out there. Just a bunch of long limbs trying to stay on his feet while not messing up.

I'm pissed at Skal but at the same time I can't help but feel sorry for him. It's almost like he's realizing this whole college thing is nothing like what he thought it would be.

 

[Stonewall12]

He is a deer in headlights.

Considering where he was playing this time last year.

You could sure as Hell be right to the T! Sure looked just like it.

At least Perry would come down the lane and dunk on a unlv player. Skal would ruin from the thought of contact@ the rim. He's gotta get tougher

 

[lacocat]

Skal needs to start eating some biscuits and gravy

 

[School boy]

Wish we had trades in college

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

Skal has a different background than any player we've had imo. Not sure he will ever have that fire

 

[hoopsdave]

Skal will not be what we hoped. Just not gonna happen. He is more of a project than a prospect.
Hope I'm wrong.

 

[jockstrap_mcgee]

Skal is pre-mom in the meadow Bambi right now.
I fear he won't be running through a forest fire to save his family Bambi until a couple years into his NBA career.

 

[Jkwo_rivals113955]

He said "get the board" (iow, start rebounding).

Considering they have the same reb avg this season and are 15 inches apart, Skal should listen up.

Tyler is our leader. Listen to him, kiddo.

 

[Gametown_baller]

You all overreact. He will be fine. He is not a bust. He has played in only a few college games, and this was his first road game. He will be a top 3 pick and one of our stars. You will love him come April
