bmags Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Oh man, I forgot about Egwu. Missouri is struggling with rebounding with JWIII being the only good rebounder. That's going to be a major painpoint Saturday. Damn I'm excited. Last good game before the slugfest conference games of the SEC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 12:45 PM) Yeah Egwu needs to start playing better offensively. I get that Groce wants these guys to drive and dish, and they're good at doing that, but Egwu needs to at least seem like an offensive threat. And he needs to learn to set legal screens. He got away with a few in the Oregon game and still had 2 offensive fouls on screens. He's never not in foul trouble, and it's really frustrating. In the BT, throwing Morgan and Colbert to the wolves for heavy minutes isn't going to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 He's one of those guys that has too much intensity. He needs to dial it back and think about the bigger aspects of his game. Â BTW finals week is the worst part of the season. I hate going like 15 days with only two games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I said that Wisconsin would benefit from the rule change because they would get more free throws as one of the most common ways to beat them was to aggressively ride them.

He_Gawn Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 While I think this is Bo Ryans best overall team to date, I''m still in wait and see mode... The only team Wisconsin has played thus far with a pulse was Florida's JV squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Just curious since I am out here and have to listen to people worshiping the team. What do you all think of Kansas? Do you think the team is a serious national title contender or a total pretender? Are you high on them or low? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to say that they are legit national title contenders because of the insane talent they have but as of right now they aren't a very good basketball team.

The program has been an absolute embarrassment for years now so whatever. Barry has also done this kind of stuff forever, maybe not to this extent but he's been a character forever. That being said, he's also known as one of the better guys around and a great ambassador for the sport and Valley. I'm not going to be embarrassed about him trying to give the team a kick in the ass, I am embarrassed at the continued horrendous play on the court with no sign of that changing.
