The guy from Kentucky is Omar Prewitt. William & Mary has 36.2% of their points from last season. That's less than us after Green, Tanksley, Koon, and Nichols graduated.

Didn’t seem to affect them much. This WAnd M team can put points up on the board in bunches

So WandM lost 65% of last year's scoring! So they have reloaded well, but are still a team on the remake. I want evperience and upperclassmen to step up. Too much to ask??

Tech foul and personal foul on Gustys on the same play. I see we have the cream of the crop officials here today.
And besides that, of course the team looks lost as well. The nerds are shooting 60% from the field.

At halftime, W&M’s new AD announced that starting next year they will be offering COA for men’s and women’s basketball. Yet another conference school that we’re falling behind.

I don’t think we could’ve had a worse last 30 seconds...

I think its Cost of Attendance - meaning everyone is on full scholarship

Before the game I think Nathan Knight was their best player, and he held on to the lead with his 8th blocked shot. That was the first time since at least 2010-2011 that player on or against Hofstra had at least 8 blocked shots. It was a one-possession game for the last 12:58.

We have one guy (JWF) who has the confidence and ability to score when we need pts.
Don't know what is up with EP - he has ben off his game all year.

Like I said a week ago, this team can win or lose any game. Zero consistency!

With Nathan Knight tearing us apart, how come there was no effort to pass inside to try and get him in foul trouble. If its not a pick beyond the arc, a put-back or a pick and roll, JM doesn't even have our 5s involved in the offense. As a matter of fact, doesn't seem like JM has anyone other than JWF involved in the offense. Just pass it around the perimeter until someone goes one on one - most of the time its Justin.

If not for the horrible inbound pass with 30 seconds left, we probably would have won this game. If not for the burchfeild guy hitting 2 3s in the last 20 seconds, we would have won this game. Just awful playing by HU the last 30 seconds. But even if we won, we did not look like a team on offense. Sorry, but thats how I see it. Zero consistency

The only bright spot is that this was another game confirming that JWF is very, very talented. Wish we had more bright spots. Year 5 - integrity of HU MBB has been restored. Quality and success of HU MBB does not seem to have moved much, certainly not to a new level. I had hoped for so much more.

Nice choke job - All they needed was a successful inbounds pass and some decent foul shooting. Takes unique talent to be up 3 with the ball and less than 30 secs remaining and lose by 3! Way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
So many things wrong in a 30 second span it was scary! A bad pass, a 3, JWF shooting when he should have held ball for last shot, an open 3 when that's what "beats you". Wormley taking a contested layup (Knight only blocked 8 shots) when a dish gives them a layup. UGH - Good thing I root for Michigan St also :D

breaking down the game
We shoot 47.1% from the field and we lose. WHY?
we shot only 5-18 from the trey 27.8%
we had 32 FGs but only 11 assists. too much one on one. this offense is stagnent except for JWF
In comparison W&M shot 53.4% from the field and 53.3% from trey we offered no resistance
they had 31 FGs and 21 Assists mean they moved the ball around on offense and they actually have plays that they run
End of game we had no legs and our guards were not mentally sharp.
my conclusion is if we dont hit our treys we lose the game. Very inconsistant
Does anyone see this pattern changing?

Ok guys we were not favored in this game...we were down 13 and came back to have the lead with what 30 seconds left?

Very disappointing end to this one with that HORRIBLE in bounds pass....otherwise we win what is a tough road game.. And get ready for another tough one Tuesday at Northeastern...we could be 7-7 before we Wright the ship....and speaking of Villanova...they lost on the road at Butler...
