From what I've heard about the UNCP game, the team lacked effort and played soft. With our size Rebounding is going to be an issue for us all season, so playing soft is the last thing we can afford to do. Last but not least, has our 3 point defense improved? Apparently this team likes to shoot a lot of threes and has a couple of guys that can fill it up. How well will we defend them or will we hear the "they made some tough shots." quote

I talked with several players and ask them flat out if this was the case and they laughed at it. Where did you hear this ? Soft and lack of effort is a very strong statement to put on a team in any game or even practice for that matter. So I would love to know who say this?

I'm not going to get into a he said/she said thing over this statement. It came from someone that was in attendance for the scrimmage and I'm not going to out the person. Honestly, I'd rather that be the case... Playing harder can be fixed, I would hate to hear that UNCP just had a more talented team than us.
