They're gonna be close I think but it's more just about how this project is gonna take time for us and this is a really tough first road game for a whole new team and whole new coaching staff.

Method can confirm I've calling that we're gonna get roasted in this game. Anything better than that I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Just zero rhythm. We keep getting up in the comfortable with the do-loop at the top of the key. Team needs to learn each other better.

Agee hits the open 3, but our inside half-court game is non-existent. We miss PnR opportunities. Are not able to either catch the ball inside and finish or dribble drive.

It shouldn't be a surprise that the half-court offensive game is lagging.

But our defense is creating no real transition game opportunities.

We can improve, but there's a reason this style of ball hasn't been seen since the 90s (Arky - Nolan Richardson) in the B12 and SEC.

No one is trying to rebound outside of Agee it seems

Turns out BuckyBall is as ugly as BuzzBall when the shots dont fall. Horrible shooting and defensive performance so far. Brick city

Defense is optional it would appear

Keep telling yall the press doesn't work. No one listened. Gave up a bunch points to two bad teams

Garbage call against Agee. I like him - he's our leader. Get him more touches.

The biggest problem is we've only forced one (1) turnover.

ONE.

When there's no inside half-court game and we don't set enough ball screens this happens.

Mostly Isaac's. He's been abysmal.

The silver lining is our style can allow for comebacks.

Our press isn't the problem, it's our halfcourt defense that's bad

I mean if a Bucky team shoots 27% for a half, they're going to be down bad. Not too concerned. If these players are this bad at shooting, it'll be a rough year and he'll have to bring in some shooters next year. Most likely it's just a bad night. Even halfway decent shooting in this first half would have us in the lead.

Mgbako is who you build around. Nothing matters much until he's back.

Honestly it's wild we aren't down more. We've still got a shot here with some adjustments and if we can get some open looks to fall.

First 5 mins of the second half, get it manageable!

We are just not a good basketball team right now. Simple as that. It was always silly to overreact to scoring 100 against a SWAC school

Good finish to the half. One thing is certain and that we will be the better conditioned team. If we can find an offensive rhythm I think OSU is going to be surprised when this close in the last 5 mins.

I've always wondered, what's the backstory on your username? Rodent problems in Hotard?

Not quite, though I'm sure we had plenty of those living there, too.

Nothing about this is too surprising. If we're going to win big games this season we absolutely have to knock down open threes at a high rate. If we don't do that then nothing else matters. Our three point shooting is like the foundation this whole pyramid is built on.

Pretty simple: they have gotten easier shots. We can't trap at top then leave an open player one pass away.

Running zone and we aren't clear on assignments.

Well we are playing like a bunch of guys that just met. Which we are.

Let's see if we can make some adjustments

A lot to work on.

- Losing the TO battle, and therefore no transition offense.

- Too much dribbling.

- Poor 3FG shooting - even with open looks

- No inside half court game

- Missed at lease 4 PnR opportunities

- Back to ball motion, ball screens, backdoors, PnR

- Looked way too much like BuzzBall without the rebounding.
