They may have thought they had a back-up but he’s either too hurt or not good enough to even get on the court. ODU does a ok job of doubling the post now with our short guys but that just leaves other people open.

I think Jones knows he’s getting on a warm seat and needs to pick up the recruiting this coming season. I’m starting to hear from regular fans, folks who would never come on here, complaining about the state of revolving door of player's. Plus let me throw in. Everyone I know just hates CUSA.

We need a little bit of everything. But Kalu is fine at center and they need to add another body to replace Carver.

But they are really good at rebounding and defense has been solid. WSharing the ball and guys that can knock down shots is what this team needs more than anything. We dont have players that dish it to big men when they drive into the paint.

This is kind of the point of the whole thing, in my opinion. We need to be better at every single position. Ironically I think our best spot right now is the point guard (ironic because we thought that would be our worst spot this season), but we only have one.

I just find it frustrating that we are weak at every position at this stage in our coach's tenure, as others are expressing as well.

Playing such a weak schedule (158th in the nation) masks our lack of talent. ODU's talent looks great against weak opponents. And the team is young, so why not buy into the hype that next year is the year. Except next year comes and there's another excuse.
