***GAME THREAD - UK vs. Brown***

[rob_47]

I feel like it has been more the fans than the players who thought they were something they weren't lol.

No the fans aren't the ones playing. The players have the potential to be good of they play like they have something to prove rather than play like they've accomplished anything.

 

[yes_takeaside]

Just giving some rest right before the 8 minute TO. Back in the bench now I’m guessing

 

[Fox2monk]

Maybe Kriisa was the spark that made this team go.

We miss having a ball handler that passes the ball for sure.

 

[Terrapin_Station]

Anyone else question Chandler and Perry on the court at the same time or was it just me? Lol

For sure. It’s concerning that Pope keeps doing the same things that obviously aren’t working. Lineup combos should be the easiest thing for a coach to grasp…

 

[Blue_2_the_bone]

Perry and chandler can’t be on the court at the same time

They can’t, and I don’t think they offer more than what Noah would on the floor. He can essentially do what Almonor does but is 3 years younger with time to grow.

 

[ala_kat2]

Almonor is RUSHING his shot !!

At times. Needs to only take open looks without a hand in his face.

 

[crawfords corner]

Game against Florida is at 11am EST? This schedule is crazy lol

 

[NociHTTP]

Would someone tell Chandler that curling into the pass-path, while begging for the ball, isn't going to result in you getting the ball? He needs to curl further away from the ball handler's defender so that there's enough room to do something with the ball.

 

[ala_kat2]

We are so much better with Carr in there.

 

[yes_takeaside]

Just giving some rest right before the 8 minute TO. Back in the bench now I’m guessing

Guessed wrong

 

[Fox2monk]

There ya go Carr.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

I would love to see Carr at the 5 a bit this game. Run the offense through him for a few minutes.

 

[sefus12]

Pope may really have to rethink how we run our offense if the poor 3-pt shooting is the norm and not the exception (and stats are certainly pointing toward that being the case). May be better to run our offense through Carr and hope he can make good passes to guys cutting/running off screens.

 

[ala_kat2]

Is Chandler a liability on offense?

 

[CrazyCat74]

They look like they are in slow motion, questioning everything. Not the team we saw the first month. Where are the shot seekers, quick hitters, cuts, ball movement, etc???

Good post

Coaches have film on us after 10-12 games.

Taking away some of our strengths.

We will need to be able to adjust as teams adjust to us

 

[NociHTTP]

Whoever said that Almanor looked like Cousins with the white head band, you were spot on! When he's running away from the camera, it's uncanny, lol. I looked for your post and couldn't find it.

 

[Fox2monk]

I’d love to see a little 10-0 run here. Perry for 3!

 

[ukfan041]

Woof! Horrible so far! Nice to see Perry knock down a 3 tho

 

[Roe07]

There you go TP!

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

We are so much better with Carr in there.

He needs 35 mpg.

 

[blackcat714]

Perry for the 3

 

[NociHTTP]

Is Chandler a liability on offense?

IMO, yes. He puts out a lot of energy on the court, but often not at the right times.

Nice three by Perry.

 

[mrjuk]

TRAV!!!!!

 

[ukfan041]

Would like to see Noah get a few minutes here

 

[the nail at the foul line]

 

[megablue]

We look fluid right now …

 

[Fox2monk]

We are so much better when Carr is aggressive.

Twas me...it was just a quick glance and that's what popped into my head.

 

[NociHTTP]

Is Carr one of the best and-1 shooters in the country? Wow!

 

[the nail at the foul line]

We are so much better when Carr is aggressive.

Hoping Perry can start making shots.

 

[ala_kat2]

We are so much better when Carr is aggressive.

Car seems to be the only player we have it can finish in traffic.

 

[TriCountyCat]

Brea needs a vacation

 

[ala_kat2]

Butler been stuffed twice in close.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

No walk?

 

[TheDude73]

Damn, if only we could have that kind of aggressiveness on blocking shots.

I thought Amari was supposed be a king of defense. I know he was playing in a mid-major, but even against mid majors he really shows me none of this supposed defensive prowess.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Up to 14 and now back down to 9.

These games are the worst. No one really cares about them. Everyone is ready for the FL game.

 

[gracetoyou]

Butler had a guy wide open on the wing but na....let's never kick & try to prove how great we are at the rim.

 

[NociHTTP]

Butler with a terrible decision there. Stop looking like Wheeler. Garrison, if you're going to dribble than GO SOMEWHERE with it. Stop picking up your dribble, leading to bad passes.

 

[megablue]

We are a yo-yo club, so far, in this game.
Up-and-down …

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Hoping Perry can start making shots.

Perry being here four years is going to be refreshing.

I'm not sold on Chandler hanging on. I could see him returning to BYU, especially with the upcoming marriage.

Also, Noah should have been redshirted this season. We need some veteran longevity going forward. Get some guys to grow gray bears here for a while.
