Can we call Harnish and ask for a few tear drops to spare?

That's so many names I'd prefer to forget.

No lie. At the game last night, every time he touched the ball I kept saying to myself, "Don't shoot!"

Zach Miller, 18min, 304%fg, 300% from three, 9 made 3's, 29 turnovers in 19 games as a true freshman. Stain Berg, 17min, 337%fg, 342% from three, 27 made 3's, 35 turnovers in 30 games and 3.7pts a game as a true freshman. Orris, 26mins, 277%fg, 189% from three, 7 made 3's, 36 turnovers in 21 games and 3.5pts as a redshirt sophomore.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.
The record is all that matters.
Being 340th in the nation in assists does not help.
Monty definitely needs a new offensive philosophy next year.

RE: Falcons @ Huskies predictions
Does not matter what you run. It's about making shots. NIU runs motion just like everybody. The difference between winning and losing this year has been so small. Make a couple more shots or free-throws or stop the other team from making a couple. Also, I don't want Miller or Berg, I am just pointing out how bad Orris has been.

Offensive stats are only part of the story. Zach Miller was completely overmatched trying to guard anyone. He was simply not a D1 basketball player. He's playing at D3 Hillsdale College now.

RE: Falcons @ Huskies predictions
How painful is it to watch Baker try to enter the ball to Threloff, certainly not his forte. That is what has disappointed me most about Orris, he had the rep of not being a shooter first, but he really doesn't excel passing the ball either. When you have no point production, no passing ability, and no outstanding defensive contributions, its really hard to justify minutes for him right now other than a pure numbers game and somebody to fill mintues. Unfortunately that is his main role right now, a minutes eater.

Yep,that's why I was saying Baker 30 mins and Orris 10 mins. Orris does not look like a D1 player either. You cannot have a guy out there playing 26 minutes and have multiple games where they score zero with a couple assists and a couple turnovers. Also, he can't pass or guard anybody and is very slow. Help Orris and Kevin Gray get a grant or loans but no scholly!
