Who scored 10 points on us. I bet he is better than pledger, Blair, and Newell.
 
Wally had 15 points while Cam had the same as a dead man.

How does a top 30 player who has played as many minutes as Cam has lay an egg in a NON hostile environment Same with Fitz scoring a big 7 points with 3 TO.

Nobody looks like they have improved since the Chaminade game.

Good question, I had a bad feeling when I watched them warm up. They just seemed listless and acted like they did not want to be there (my impression). I just wonder if there is something going on in the background we don't know about. Cade was the only one with any fire to him. Again these are just my impressions from body language and the way they were warming up. Maybe they have looked that way all season and I just have not seen it.:confused:
 
I honestly believe that we are seeing the results of playing 5-8 guys for most of the conference season. Fitz is completely out of gas. The kid had to be taken out at least twice last night because he couldn't get up and down the court.

Capel has not used what little bench we have, and its now time to pay for it. It just amazes me that Cade hasn't fallen out yet, after a complete season of guarding 4's and battling guys twice his size for rebounds.....

Capel has NEVER played his bench. It's always bugged me.

Think about 2009. Basically our lineup was:
AJ
Willie
Crocker
Taylor
Blake

Wright got a couple minutes a game, Leary got a couple minutes a game, and Pattillo played a bit in the conference season.

Of those, Pattillo is the only one that I would have even considered "part of a rotation." Everybody else just briefly spelled someone when they had to. Forgot about Cade. He played a bit that year too.

Typically our bench has been drastically worse than the starters but this year is not the case. Our starters are terrible and the bench is right there with them. Honestly Id rather see TJ Franklin at point over Blair or Newell.
