Soooo i just assumed pippen & hamilton were being held out to give those big bodies more time to rest recover heal for the MAC tourney. after reading all the posts here (& allen moff's write-up) appears it was for other reason (AKA bad attitude.) hmmm interesting. totally agree with cleveland: hat's off to coach for having the guts to bench star players when warranted.
my big take-away from tge game: Bainbridge on defense! WOW!! was a monster. did it without fouling. great passing too!
on the downside, he was AWFUL shooting the 3s
as polish hammer was saying, just chucking-up way too many 3s (schoolyard style)
like cleveland was saying, seemed in a rush to shoot.
dannyb73, why do you say i don't see him (bainbridge) coming back? defense & court awareness he is a rock star
shooting
i think we can fix.
jacobs & geo played their hearts out!! hat's off!!
beck too!
beck had one too many turnovers, need to fix that.
overall, this is one of those rare losses where i am not bummed. zero bummed. the guys played GREAT!
KSU315, you were way off. we were not blown out of the gym. no longer scared or UB. they are very mortal. we can beat them.
i love this team. can't wait for thurs!
PS would love to see that red-hot shooting Ball State team that we played a few weeks ago show-up vs UT :)
