So far Briscoe is Player of the Game. Nice job with him.

Everyone else has been slightly disappointing.

We're still getting plenty of 5* guys, just the wrong ones.

Yea but we're not walking into a gym taking "any" 5 star we want. In 2009-12 cal got "who" he wanted. Look at next years class. It's not happening anymore. At least it looks that way to me.

monk made that three but where the eff is the discipline. Those are bad shots and cal just isn't even mad at him for taking quick guarded 3's. Like I said it earlier..... such a lack of discipline it's like Josh Pastner is wearing a cal mask on our sidelines coaching

good game.

shooting over 50% from the floor. 39% from three. almost 70% from the line. on pace for 100. holding them to less than 35% shooting.

lots of quirky bounces and foul trouble

I'm watching my Titans choke against the Broncos so havent' watched first half. I see we are up 48-33, but reading the game thread you would think we were losing.

We would be up 25 or more if we didn't keep making the same mistakes we have made all year.

Idiot. Top two class every year. I say he's still getting who he wants.

Holy crap we basically get anyone we want . I can't believe either of these posts are real. We get more great players then anyone including Duke. Just look at last year's class we got 4 lotto locks and one other 1st rounder. Duke got 2 lotto locks and 2 first rounders. Edge UK. Look at the class so far this year - again UK has the best class and will end most likely with Diallo/Bamba/Vanderbilt and a grad transfer.

Call not worried enough for a coach ahead by fifteen. I hope he goes into the locker room and reads these posts by you geniuses. Then he'll be properly disgusted and a scared little baby like you all are.

Exactly. Or, our parts don't mesh for some reason. I stand by my opinion that having Orlando Antigua is better than not having him.
Well thanks for showing your complete and utter idiocy so I know to put you on ignore. God I hope you are troll and not real with this asinine comments.

That's a piss poor take Damn kid bailed our *** out more than once , all while accepting his role as a bench player . Dumb **** like this pisses me off
Bailed us out of what? Please enlighten me... accepting his role as a bench player? that's what he is, not a starter but a bench player... but if you're gonna sit there and act like this kid hasn't made some stupid mistakes and get caught out of position on defense more and more every week, you're blind.. I'm not dogging Dominique at all, just saying that he's regressed and hasn't shown up like I thought he would.. wish that wasn't the case...... but it is..

With nobody to rebound? Got it. Then everyone else who is supposed to be in position to rebound should not play if they fail to do that.
This is part of the learning process. Do you think these guys are just supposed to step on a college court and automatically know what to do and when to do it? There is a reason these teams look so much better in March than they do in December. Mistakes like this are corrected by March. I can't believe I have to explain this.

Put a damn premium on players that have skills and fundamentals, instead of projecting the future draft boards, regardless if it fits your roster needs. We never have conventional lineup anymore where players are all at their true positions. Its too much about getting all the McDonalds boys regardless if it fills your roster needs. Wouldn't hurt to have an actual offense either.

Really it was the fouls, both ways, it turned so ugly and said I was yelling when ANY foul was called. They cannot keep making the game ugly or they will have to see if "Speedy" Claxton has eligibility left. They were looking to murder players.

But to get back to the game I like how Hofstra has played D as it is making us work. Valpo would beat them by 20 but they match up better with us then Valpo so the game is a little closer. Still we shot really well and held them to a bad % so there is little to complain about beyond defensive boards though those picked up when Mulder came in . Briscoe has been a beast per usual.

So their backup center has 4 fouls at the half, while their starter is in foul trouble himself, though not quite that bad.

I'd make Gooseneck or whatever his name is guard Bam every possession.
