PMAC turns it over with 25 seconds left and starts walking back on defense.

so he should pout and give up?

This is where I'm at for officiating. Officals suck. Almost all of them. I still really hope Pat can get it turned around and this is not directed at him.

We whine so much on the court. The faces, the complaining, the jawing, it's like we are entitled and expecting to get calls by crews that need to constantly review obvious stuff.

Today's game turned into a mug fest and there was very little physical adjustment. We have to find a way to just play and control what you can. We struggle so much and that is where I think Fran has to be the leader. When you are constantly complaining you are giving your players that green light too.
 
Watch the arm if the defender wrap around his back while reaching for the ball.
One key thing from the Furnam/Virginia game re: refs, on Furman's possession before they hit the three watch the 3 point shot from the Furman player. Virginia guy "hand checks" him, bumps his arm and elbow and no call, can't believe it wasn't called.

I know the refs can't see everything and as a bball coach you can't complain about everything but the first half double dribble/carry, ball out of bounds and the mugging was pretty bad.
 
So being fouled makes it ok to give up on defense?
Not at all. I teach my players to forget about it because in bball there are many, many more plays and opportunities most likely and if you let it linger it will affect your play. Here, in this case, it was late but didn't like the look.

Agreed. Although I’m not sure Hawkedoff will and that’s ok. Everyone is entitled to an opinion
 
About everybody sucked at getting back on missed shots, on replays just watch guys jogging not hustling back

I dunno maybe Fran could have put in big Josh for 5 minutes at a time to bang on their guys and give them some of their own medicine but just like his handling of Bowen he is beyond bad at roster minutes.

The team plays with the same amount of composure and class as exhibited by their coach. Watch a UNI game, Jacobson is a class act and his players respond similarly on the court when a 50/50 call goes the other way.

I was yelling for Big Jelly the whole game. Rebraca was getting manhandled
