Some better play and defensive/rebound hustle out of the more stable starting 5, but still not enough from the guards (Simpson looks like he regressed badly, Fernandes doesn't look like he can create at this level) and just can't score. Defense still not very good either.

Not sure this is a year for us.

Lazy passing leading to turnovers.
Not getting ball inside.
Just chucking up 3s.
Simpson is awful.

Looking like a 4-16/5-15 conference team (that’s being generous) ... only the 3rd game, but RU looks bad in the first half versus BU and Bryant.

Did these kids miss all these layups in high school? If so, how did they get so highly regarded?

Who is the 3rd big man
RU struggled when woolfolk and Cliff were off the court.

Agree with guard play. There is talent there,,,need to harness it.

Thank goodness Bryant can’t shoot the three (1 for 12 so far) … neither can RU (1 for 10),

Gavin is having an off day … hasn’t hit a FG yet.

My lineup:

Davis - PG
Simpson - SG
gavin
Cliff
Hyatt/woolf situational

When mag is back than Hyatt/woolf off the bench

Fernandes not very good

Have to agree here. I could even see Wolf some games with Gav off the bench for a spark. But I think honestly that guard combo is a big key. Noah had expectations but just doesn't look like he can create at this level.

At first 2 home games … don’t remember seeing a Cliff dunk yet. Did he regress or a result of no Ron, Caleb, Cam and Paul.

I don’t understand the plan in half court offense. Zero movement. Just people around the perimeter passing in circles. Need to cut and screen and move

Nice pass in to Clif, nice pass from to top of key, nice swing to gg on wing: 3.

Almost seems like the whole program is waiting for next year. Hope not.

Some better rotations there...Gavin finally hits and Cliff finally asserts himself.

Let's see if we can get more consistent in the second half.

Need more consistency out of everyone. I really think Mag is a big key, and Davis at point. We need that quickness and defense.

Good defense so far. Playing up on the 3pt shooters and good help D.
On offense, starting to focus on going inside first. Need to hit some FTs obviously.
