Why and when did anyone think this year was the year we were going to be great. I think a lot of people had concerns this was going to be probably an average at best year. Even with Cronin it would have been the same as last year: ride Cumberland as far as possible. Maybe Brooks would have helped, but I don't think one recruit who is now transferring because he can't get PT at Nebraska and a pg who did nothing his freshman year and isn't garnering PT at St Mary's was going to be a game changer. As I mentioned this year was going to go as Cumberland goes, and so far he has been shit. Maybe it's injury, I don't know, but every time Brannen has isolated him he has either turned it over or forced a bad shot. He simply can't get by anyone this year and his shot is broke. The best coach in the world wouldn't be winning with Cumberland playing the way he is. |

Scott has been a bigger disappointment than jarron, at least jarron is hurt. |

Note to self: Skyblade knows nothing about basketball.

Thing Is... he does have all kinds of potential. Just a matter of if he is able to reach it.
He can shoot, he can run, he can jump What he lacks is real basketball experience and a feel for the game. It takes time for that stuff to happen. This is literally his 2nd year of playing D1 basketball. The game is moving too fast for him. Just like it moved too fast for Keith Williams his freshmen year. Rule of thumb is to always give big men 2 full seasons of playing before you can a judgement on them |

I mean I hope to god we don’t run him off because we have zero bigs committed.
And Eason is not a lock. |

As for Vogt, I just think he needs to be a 1 man zone. And that he doesn’t leave the paint at all. Especially against bigs like tyrique Jones who can’t shoot.
They drug him out of the paint and he is one of the slowest D1 players I have ever seen. He has zero ability as a help defender. He needs to just stay in the paint. There isn’t s a defensive 3 seconds so literally just stand at the rim |
