He has like 4-5 inches on him, you HAVE to take advantage of that mismatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team still plays terrible perimeter defense and we don't know what kind of lift we'll get next year with Peters and Holston back. Holston should elevate perimeter shooting and the turnovers should come down, but we will have a huge hole to fill next year on the frontline with Cousins gone and Perry's status uncertain. We are playing horrible perimeter defense because we have to play zone defense so McMurray doesn't pass out from exhaustion chasing around their point guard. SMU knows how to beat the zone and there is nothing we can do about it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least we will have some options. Guererro, Manderson, Da Silva all have NBA Center size. Baxter and Santos could play the position at this level against most teams. sidenote: they are running us off our own court.

He can be an offensive liability all he wants. At 6'11 I just want him to get into good position and rebound. At least we know what we are getting with him.

Face it, Antigua sucks and should be fired! What a train wreck!!!!!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face it, Antigua sucks and should be fired! What a train wreck!!!!!!! Well last year we said the same about Guererro because he was playing very well. Peters was off to a rough start then injured and done. These kids fight, they just aren't winning. Of course you could make the point that it's his fault two of his players are hurt, Perry can't get his stuff together and was diagnosed with a heart issue last year, that CAJ broke league rules making him ineligible the last few games of last year, and that he has been trying to put together a piecemeal team.

But the only thing you can sell the fan base at this point is hope, because under COA there has been zero substance. Well said, even though the last half is as equally true as disheartening.

He needs to do what he think USF needs to build a program with more peaks than valleys. He's been around enough college basketball that he should be able to figure out how long he needs to give COA, everything considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
