PMac is good in transition. In the half court, he's not aggressive coming off screens and often forces drives/shots over defenders. It really just seems to be all mental for him which is unfortunate. He has the athleticism and size to be an all Big Ten type player if he had Connor's mentality.

don't think this is even true. He throws up some we runners that go in once and awhile but at 6'9" he should finish way more often then he does.
 
Seeing as how this season might be NIT at best - based on the still early returns - just start and play most of the freshmen as much as possible to provide the experience and confidence for them moving forward into their upperclassmen years.

We seem to think we have the talent to run 10 deep, but don't push them to play with their hair on fire on defense? EFF this kind of lazy play.

Shorten the bench if you don't expect much effort on defense.

Perkins
Sandfort
Freeman
And someone else. LOL

In transition he usually finishes. In the half court, I agree he ends up avoiding contact and throwing it up from 10 feet out a lot of the time.

The kid was a 4 star high rated recruit out of high school. He certainly has the size and athleticism. He just lacks the fire.
 
Krikke is getting out hustled and putting up off balance shots plus no rebounds in first half

I think he lacks strength and stamina. He always runs the court with his mouth open.

I really don't like busting on PMac, knowing what he's gone through in life already, but if you're on the floor for a P5 team, you gotta do more than just "be out there".

And most of the time, I feel like that's all he does. Is just enough so that it can be labeled as "being out there".
 
Fran has always struggled with substitutions/player combos. Hawks are up 10 with just under 2:00....things are rolling well. He decides to put in 3 subs who have been on the bench for awhile instead of riding the half out with players in rhythm. Then kicks the scorer's table when they lose the lead.
