The article may say he's a 6'8" guard but we all know he's neither!

Wags - Spot on points about Fritz - he's doing fine - knows how to play. The problem as you point out are the perimeter players not containing their men putting Fritz in a compromising position. That and of course Sunday unable to supply a competent backup for 10 or so minutes.

Probably the reason for opponents best player beating us is there isn't a defensive stopper/player in current rotation. Team is undersized both weight and height wise (except for Sunday who's problem is he can't play on any of the other days that end in Y)

Not saying Dubar can't play in the SEC but Arkansas is in for a rude awakening when they find out he's a 6'6" Small Forward and not a 6'8" guard. That highlight film not the best of Dubar (certainly shooting the 3 not withstanding) but doesn't show him doing anything else - just standing i...

Bad play by Washington but Rice kicked out both legs.College officials ignore it while the NBA calls offensive fouls (at least some time)

I don't see Wilmouth as a 5 - He makes Fritz look like a body builder. More like a stretch 4 as I heard somewhere he could shoot 3's. Have to keep Dubar somehow because losing him and Thomas too much to overcome. Going to have to make a killing in the portal.

Bet with Newsday - lol. - "Playable" numbers HU 1 1/2 - TOTAL 154

Defense, at least last night, keying on TT - He took a lot of bad shots - deeper and more contested than usual. DD more selective. I understand TT needs and feels the urge to score (not a lot of options out there) but taking very low percentage shots not the answer.

Had a bad feeling this was gonna be a rough matchup for them. This team isn't anywhere near as good as it thinks it is offensively. Held under 70 pts 6 times in 11 games vs D1 teams now, and 1-5 in those games. When facing quality competition with length and size Hofstra really struggles to score.....

BTW Estrada did not do much in this game. With us, he had the ball in his hands way more. Playing off ball he seems less potent.

As I pointed out on "Estrada @ Alabama" Dec 12

I'll be stunned if they keep it within 20 - Dukies love to run up the score whenever they get the opportunity (Probably more so under Coach K)

Watched almost all of Bama-Chickens - Sears had the ball basically all the time - Estrada not the same player off the ball - not to mention that Giant Chicken blocking up the paint

If you want to go to an iconic building - The Palestra in Philly on the Penn Campus is Numero Uno. Nothing like it to my knowledge - you can walk around the inside of the arena and see the entire history of the Big 5 and the acoustics are incredible. A must see!

Drives me nuts - up 9 with 1:30 to play - No Fouls, No 3's and if you make barely any FT's you win the game easily. Takes 5 possessions to pass you without any FT's on your part - instead they give up 3's and foul 3 pt shooters- incredibly stupid. Congrats on a gritty W - Officiating about as bad as...

"Playable" numbers 5 1/2 - 153

FYI - Blue Ribbon forecasts Wright St 1ST in Horizon League (out of 11) and High Point 8th (of 9) in Big South

Even have play by play on many games
