This is what I would do, I would focus every thing practice wise on conditioning,free throws and defense, I would run full court man to man with a lil zone press mixed in while Milos was on the court, I would start Donivine Stewart,DSE,Shayok Shayok,TB,Stix, With first two off the bench being JE and WL........ Prosser,Crawford, Milos, I would consider long and hard the thought of un redshirting NW, But i'm a lets win now kinda guy! We do this we would never lose lol j/k Go Braves I feel better, no no i dont!

???It??™s awful hard,??™??™ said Illini freshman guard D.J. Richardson, the former Central High School guard who played prep school ball a few miles from here and fought back tears outside the locker room. ???It??™s a hometown thing. It??™s bragging rights.??™

not sure how much stock they put into things being said - and I am also not sure if it's always a good idea to be too consumed by what people are saying but there is undeniable proof that people even at some of the highest levels view most every page and every comment

I guess this gives me an opportunity to torment people with too much time on their hands!

We are only halfway through Season 1!
Yes, I will be upset if I don't see more consistency from this team a month from now, but I believe it will come.
I think we're all pretty frustrated that we are out of contention by the end of January for the last decade, whether it's a rebuilding year or not.

What has Geno done to say " he knows what he is doing" ?
Do we feel that this team is better now than game 1?
I'll try to address your concerns though...
Do you really think we will be contending for the MVC title come Feb. 1st?
A lot of us are just trusting that he knows more than we do since he sees the team every day. He's a proven winner, has the guys working hard and on the same page, and by his demeanor, he will work tirelessly to be successful at BU.
I feel we are better now than Game 1, yes. Some would disagree though.
Not a ton better, but I see improvement, especially offensively. I really thought we'd get more out of TB and DSE this year, but maybe there's so much pressure of those guys night in and night out. They're just playing a notch below 2nd team All-Valley right now.

I'm not ready to throw in the towl.
TB and DSE, what do u want from these guys?
Jordan Prosser is the biggest disapointment for me.
I'll give you a lil bit of improvement on "O" But not near as the decline in "D"
If we get back to playing D, we will be fine, these guys are gonna score, we just arnt stopping people!

I have to try and trust what Geno and his STAFF are doing, because they see it every day and we don??™t.
Just for fun though??¦I would like to see more playing time for a couple of freshman. A full court press. More set plays for TB and more shots for TB. JP to foul out of a game because he played ???hard-nosed-no-easy-baskets-in-the-paint-D.??? A few minutes for MK and some old school multiple baseline screen setting so he can get a shot up like the old Aaron Zobrist 3pt days.

I guess neither TB nor DSE have impressed me on the defensive end.
Offensively, I thought TB would be putting up 20 ppg and more of a rebounding force. While he's been pretty solid, he has struggled to put together 2 good halves in a game.
DSE is doing better, but he is not playing up to 2nd-team yet. While his 3 pt. shooting has improved a bit, he has not been able to finish attacking the rim like he did the last 10 games of last season when he was hard to stop. He'll get it together though.
I guess with the lack of production from role players, I expect more out of TB and DSE, just because we NEED them to have great games every night out to have a chance to win.
JP has been disappointing to me too, but he is still learning. And the production from JE has been lackluster.
Walt has been the team's MIP, despite some poor decisions from time to time.
