RE: MTSU - 3,2,1

I'm going to agree to disagree with some of you about the freshmen not playing. I continue to be frustrated by JJ's intransigence about playing Hueitt when we obviously need scoring. There were two major missed opportunities (IMO) last night.

The first, during the last possession of the 1st half. With the game tied, we had the ball with the shot clock off playing for the last shot (no worries about defense). Why not insert Hueitt...your deadliest 3pt shooter...and let him have a chance? I see nothing but upside by trying him. Yes, he would have been coming in cold, but I don't think that would really matter to him.

The second was during the final 2 minutes or so of the game. We were trailing by 5-6 pts and needed to score...or we lose. It's that simple. We were really struggling on offense, so why not try to bring in a scorer? Again, if we DON'T SCORE...WE LOSE!!!

I don't get it. I guess I never will. It's the old saw...if you don't try anything different, you get the same results.

On the plus side, the Ted looked great on the stream last night and the crowd was really rocking. It reminded me of the old days against VCU. Nice job Monarch fans!
