Bulls vs. ECU - In Game Discussion

[Jonesy Bull 3]

Its unbelievable to me how this team plays extended stretches of not making shots, lots of turnovers, poor free throw shooting, etc yet still finds ways to win.  Defense, rebounding and coaching is key for this teams success.  Now the next 4 games we will find out if this season is going to be a nice turnaround story or something really special.  I keep telling myself that we are a year away from being special, but what do i know.

Yeah it's been amazing. Question for you. Do you think that Coach Gregory is already the COY in the AAC? To me he is but I'm thinking a top 5 league finish locks it up

Hats off to ECU.  They came to play.  Q was not benched at any point; he had two early fouls, which is an automatic sit.  Gregory said after the game, he had to ask the team at halftime if they knew the game started at 5:30 because they were playing as if it started at 6:30.  Great line!  Collins played over 40 minutes and was outstanding.  This team was built around Yetna's offensive rebounding and ability to move inside or outside and be equally effective.  Coach made some great defensive adjustments taking away the three pointers and limiting the top Freshman rebounder in the league to 3 rebounds.  But as you could see, this team is offensively challenged and their are no easy solutions with the present cast.

Let's be real.  This team is way ahead of schedule.  Each player has improved over the course of the season and once again today we at times had three freshman on the court at the same time.  They just came off their biggest road win and had a quick turnaround.  And would be hard not to be looking ahead to their biggest rival.  Speaking of the game Wednesday, consider they play three 5th year seniors.  We play one senior and he rarely plays more than 12 minutes a game.

Gregory will be Coach of the Year.
