BU-Drake game thread

[Da Coach]

Ben Simons is not dressed as expected for Drake. And one bad bit of news, Kip Kissinger is one of the game officials. The crowd appears smaller than usual.

I respectfully disagree, unless they were not sitting in the end zone...

I have worked alot of HS games in my career and seen alot more in the 20 years I 've been retired and I don't think I can remember any HS team not making at least 1 three. That was just plain pitiful. They should be totally embaressed to death.

For a team this bad, it looked like a decent turnout, at least on tv. Many longtime fans decided not to show up though as the lower bowl looked sparse in spots.

It was MUCH better than usual......plus we're a last place team!

They have to "bottle" up this game and remember how lousy they felt after missing all their 3's. Then they need to work on nothing but shooting over the summer. Even though Drake clogged up the interior lanes in the second half especially, good 3 point and FT shooting can sometimes overcome tough interior defense. And it was blantantly obvious tonight since we STILL only lost by 7 despite our atrocious 3 point shooting.

Now I KNOW we are not as bad a 3 point shooting team as we saw tonight, but probably not as good a 3 point shooting team as we were against UNI. Therefore, these players need to improve their 3 point shooting to the point where an "off" night would be 25 to 30%, maybe 20% at the absolute worst once or twice a year. Do that, and maybe we would have 3 or 4 more wins by now.

I would be equally embarrassed if I were on the team that only beat us by 6 points tonight!
