Agreed, but you make an argument for sacrificing growth for a chance at the NCAA before that game. Now I'm just watching to see if Santiago, JJJ and Plavsic develop a bit. I get a kick out of seeing Pons and Fulky be productive, too.
The season can suck and the program can be in a healthy spot at the same time. You're not wrong to criticize, but I think it's important to remember the long view.
At times it was bad, as it has been all year, other times, Miss. St. simply ran great offense. These guys are still trying to learn how to play together, I'm not holding it against them or Barnes. This year was a developmental year from day one. That hasn't changed, nor will it. Too many young guys figuring out their role.
Bama faster and better players all over the floor who can penetrate and shoot. We dont have a single player who can do either
That's not a flagrant, or a common foul, even in Upward. Refs basing the review on player reaction and crowd reaction I guess. And the announcers are clutching their pearls.
It should've been a flagrant, but I'm not freaking out over it. I need to see some "give a shit" from the team right now
Refs have bailed out bama possessions 3 times this 2nd half. Gaines gets called for a foul for a guy falling on him, and they come down and hit a 3 after
At what point does Barnes tell Bowden to not shoot a 3? Ever. For the rest of the season? I’m serious.
