Good, Bad, Ugly - ND

[DELdaBull]

Good:

1st half

 

Bad:

2nd Half

 

Ugly:

What game were refs watching? #45 was trying to injure people

[outrunner]

Good

- We played well the 1st half.

- Zach LeDay. Great game by him, and he didn't back down from Cooley.

- Good crowd. Even with fewer students, I thought they were louder.

 

Bad

- 2nd half shooting.

- Heath and the players need to attack players in foul trouble. ND had 2 players with 4 fouls, and 1 player with 3.  Attack them. They will have to cautious with their defense, making it an easier shot, or they foul out.

- Jawanza. Where did he go? Someone file a missing persons report yet?

 

Ugly

- Cooley is one of the dirtiest players I've seen. He was holding players all over the place and threw an elbow on nearly every pick I saw him set. 

- Officiating.  They changed the momentum of the game.  USF was rallying and had the crowd behind them when they called a horrible foul on AC (which could have gone against Cooley). It turned into a 4 point swing that killed the energy and momentum.

- Rebounding. Rebounding. Rebounding.

ND played like a bunch of thugs and the officiating crew just let them. Unreal. Glad that Jordan Omo checked that kid into next week.

You can't let a team get tons of their own offensive rebounds and expect to win ANY game. Give a team 2 or 3 chances to score on a single possession, and they'll beat you every time.

How hard did OMG actually hit Cooley?  From my perspective it looked like normal physical contact and Cooley flopped hard.

Omg just kept running. And running. And running....until he ran someone over.

Haven't watched the game yet but I didn't get the impression he flopped. Looked like he got a little air and then slid. Also looked like Omo gave a little chest flex when he made contact. With the way the refuting was going, I was surprised he didn't get an intentional.

They hit us. We didn't hit back. We played like sissies.

Hey, maybe this is role on the court that Omo can actually fill. Sort of like the thug in hockey. Let him come in and get a few hard fouls for intimidation purposes. Maybe will help with team rebounding.

Hmmm, you may be on to something here.

 

Let's put him in a WWE uniform and call him The Enforcer

I kept telling Cooley he better get to confession.  Guy is a complete ass on the court.  OMG leveled him without really hitting him hard.  Guess when 7'3" 360 hits you it is a truck anyway.  Put Cooley out of the game for a few minutes.

 

Guy tried to kill AC the entire game.  I wish Heath had sent OMG back out to nail him again, what is the worst that happens, they throw him out of the game?
