Catch up ball against Vandy at home doesn't bode well for the second half if we don't start hitting shots.
Hope so but we're only getting 1 of the Big 4 to really play so far. The good news is we're out-rebounding them. The bad news is we're not getting to the line 2/4 and have 7 turnovers.
Vandy is going zone with Hagans in the game also which is a good strategy by Drew.
He has 2 turnovers. Get a grip.
We simply can't afford to have BOTH TR and PJ play poorly. When that happens, we are mediocre at best.
My gosh I can't believe the team that beat Louisville and UNC has totally disappeared now for 3 games. They better hope that team shows back up for that stretch of games we have coming up after Georgia @ Auburn, Mississippi State, and Kansas
Alakat2: “We will kill them the second half”
Just wishful thinking. We can’t play any worse than in 1st half.
You’re right. We will probably win the game and most will feel good. But it’s starts like tonight that get your *** blow out when you play a good team ( see dook). And I feel
Dook is the only team we’ve played this year that had more talent than us.
It’s not just the players. We need better schemes.
I like Cal but I'm so tired of the team not being prepared to play and that's on him.
Not a fun start but got back into it. Vandy hit 5 out of their first 6 3's. There has to be more to "other teams just shoot lights out from 3 vs us". Maybe our 3 point D is lacking I see too many wide open 3 point attempts game in and game out.
Just like last year.. teams plays great against UL and then afterwards doesn’t show the same urgency or focus until sect time
Does Cal hate the zone so much that he won’t even prepare for it?:joy:
Washington is a total disgrace, so lazy it is unbelievable
Should have stayed in draft
Should have stayed in draft
Yeah or, he flexes when he dunks or blocks a shot not preparing for the next play. Too much hype and not enough preparation for the next play.
That being said.......if we split the season in half I 100% garanteed teams will not shoot 38% vs us from 3 in the second part of this year. It will regress.
I think games like this are a combination of 1. the players aren't interested in playing hard against a team like Vanderbilt (or Bama or A&M or SIU or....)
2. Cal is giving Reid and PJ some rope to expand their game - so apparently he isn't too concerned about teams like Bama, A&M or Vandy either and 3. we don't have an alpha.

So we know we can beat these teams so we just sleepwalk? So against the vols auburn and miss st I can expect maximum effort that’s good
