Sadly, GG was 0-16 today which for a player who shoots around 50% is unbelievable. But ur point is well taken they have more scoring options. I think Nico will be successful here.
Correct. Despite Maryland's bad record they probably put more talent on the floor than we do.
But that at least makes sense. He left the program.Agree but it also goes both ways. I am sure fans were fans chirping at him all game as well. It gets pretty dumb at times.
At the same time I was at the Battle game when he came back and it was a ton of fun booing him all game so what do I know
We all have them.
Coit is shooting 37% from three this season. He’s hot and cold but can really get it going. He’s had a couple of 40 point games and several other 30 point games. Coit getting hot is the only way Maryland could beat Minnesota.
It's not all bad, 43...I'm extremely confident that you had more teeth than anyone else attending Monster Jam.
That's good information/explanation, I agree.
Happens all the time in sports.....frustrating as hell but definitely not anything unique to Medved or Minnesota sports.
They definitely put more athleticism on the floor
Yep, I suppose you are right, like you said it is just frustrating that it happens. I wish there was a way to prevent the 'let downs'. I guess the fact that two of them sandwiched a great win against MSU is the tough part.
Very simple...players go deaf. "Coach, coach...we just beat Michigan State, how could Maryland possible beat us?" Players all think they will get to the NBA...at least every kid I ever coached and especially including those who never played. They are delusional.
Coach Williams D clogged the lane and took away our cuts and gave us lots of open 3 looks instead.,If worked as our inside game was putrid. Niko had no answer for Coit.
Of all the sports, basketball seems like the one most prone to these unpredictable performances but happens across all sports.
There is always variation in performance from game to game. I was going write a dissertation here, but suffice to say that that MN had an 87% chance of winning before the MD game, but there's always that 1 in 8 shot that does happen for the opponent (or poor performance for the favorite) In this one, the Gophers' offensive efficiency was actually slightly above the season average, but the defense let them down.
Absolutely that’s what killed us
Not really. There is likely no Crown or other post-season coming. Give the guys who will be here more playing time. There is no reason for Shinholster to play 0 minutes in the 2nd half when we only have a 7 man rotation.
Interesting take, probably should play Turner a little bit if he is at all in their plans next year, if not I would think he will be encouraged to transfer.
I'd be shocked if Turner is here next year.
FG and 3PT are not combined. She was 0-10 shooting and 6 were 3pt shots.
More a let up than a let down. More like they reverted to playing to play, and did not play to win which requires so much more focus, intensity and intelligence. Need to make it a habit which is a challenge.
0-10. She took six 3's and four 2's. The team was 21 of 61 shooting and 6 of 21 from 3. They didn't take 82 shots, they took 61.
LOL.She was 0-10 on field goals and 0-6 on 3s.
See box score.
