I'd bet on the opposite, but if these players have a single bit of pride/heart/guts/self respect they'll at least give a representative effort in that game. Every single one of them should be embarrassed about the lack of effort they gave during the Coppin game. I'm not sure I've ever watched a team half ass it as much as they did.

We'll he already plays everyone on the bench so it's not like he can use "play the back ups" as motivation. He's played that card, they all know they are getting on the court. I guess he's been known to play walk on's over actual talented players, so that's all he really has left to punish the team (and fans). I think his stupid rotations screw with the chemistry because they can never build any which leads to some of our offensive and defensive issues. He basically keeps everyone unhappy the way he runs players in and out. They can't even get warmed up before they are out in 3 minutes of game time.

Campbell is actually decent. 6-2 on the season. If LeDay can't play I don't see much chance things change a lot. Baruti and Coleman are basically equally as bad post options. Dooley closed the game with what I thought would be our last ditch lineup (Gardner center, Suggs at PF, Jackson SF) and it didn't work either. There's really no where else to turn if LeDay is basically done. At that point you are just left hoping the light goes off for Coleman or Baruiti and they don't suck as bad as they have.

While I don't disagree with you on anything regarding rotations the biggest issue in the Coppin game that is flat out unacceptable and can not be tolerated for even a second longer was the complete lack of effort on defense by pretty much everyone. The threats over that at this point don't need to be I'll bench you, it needs to be you bums won't have scholarships any longer if you don't play hard on defense. I'd rather lose with a team full of walk ons than a bunch of scholarship players not giving full effort. That bull**** that was on display last week made me more angry than any horrible 50 point loss I've witnessed. This really is simple Dooley better find 5 guys who will play hard.

I definitely would have expected us to be 8-1 with James. Nice compliment for the rest of the guys, but I’m sure they expected to be where they are. UT on the road is a big challenge for them, however.

#40 Oklahoma at Wichita St.

UConn vs #25 Indiana
Tulsa at #30 Arkansas

I like our chances in the WSU, Memphis, and Houston games.

Uconn definitely is capable ... as long as the St Joes team doesn't show up.

Tulsa .. sorry but i don't see that happening. So hoping for 4-1 out of those.

St Joe’s plays the worse defense I’ve seen for a team from a good conference.

this teams was up almost 30 on uconn

funny how things like waivers decision are season defining...

ill be honest im not the big on any temple big prior to forrester eligibility ...

forrester eligibility has might be the key to them being potential great.. he could be the best temple big in ages as he continues to mix into temples system

its unlikely but i wish smu's waiver appeal is overturned

also december eligible players should be active sometime this week or next week

ucf and smu has 2 bigs that could contend for starting minutes being activated

Halftime
Temple 55
St. Joes 30

At least one AAC team can beat St Joes

We simply can't get up for games vs mid-majors. Explains why we've sucked all these years in the AAC!

UCF shooting the 3 well so far against Green Bay.

I don't care how bad St Joe's is, this is impressive!
