Yeah Pastner just rolled the ball out there right?

A lot of the things we learn in life come from desperation. I don't thonk Pastner's natural inclination was to let Burrell and Goodwin fire away. But with seven people, that's what he did.

Didnt Pastner say a few weeks ago that he wanted more scoring from Burrell? I also believe he was promptly bashed for that comment as well.

He did say that. He said it was why we brought Burrell into the fold. I don't remember if he was bashed or not.

On a related topic, maybe Burrell didn't know how tough he would need to be to finish at the hoop. I've seen great moves from him all year that would 'just' miss. I'm glad Pastner and his family convinced him to come alive.

I don't see him succeeding but that doesn't mean I hope he fails either. He is a great guy and represents the university well. If he keeps working on his weaknesses, I will get behind him.
