ok sure they adapt but calling it this tight let the guys play
Did it your way for 20 years...the game has suffered.

It always seems to be a better game when they let the players play.
No, it doesn't. Physical play has been more allowed in the past 20 years than it ever was before, making it harder for players to get open shots, leading to players practicing shooting a lot less and practicing they drive a lot more. Poorer shooting has been the result.

If refs get back to calling "ticky tack" fouls consistently, the A-to-C result will be higher shooting percentages, which will make the game overall better.

So it's the first game of the season and already it's the refs' fault LSU is losing?


If you were watching, you'd realize how ridiculous this is. It's pretty unbelievable.

No, it's the ref's fault that it's a shitty fricking game to watch so far.

8 out of our 10 players that have played have at least 2 PFs.

For the players to adopt to this it would look like the fricking NBA All-star game. Nobody wants to watch that.

If LSU would hit their free throws they'd probably be winning.

Why doesn't Johnny ever call a timeout when the other team hits a shot under 10 seconds left in the half? We're going to lose our 6th timeout anyways.



Because Coach Jones likes to gun in those situations. He prefers a break up the court over a set play with a set defense. Just his preference.

This will go on all season. These guys have played this way all of their lives.

And it's about to come to an end.

The only way the fouls will cease is if you get to play 5 on 0 and they will still call a foul or two on a guy sitting on the bench.
And programs will find players who can play by the rules that are going to be enforced.

I don't think he is. Pretty much if there is a drive to the basket, there's a whistle.

So what happens when ten players foul out in the second?
I'll be pleasantly surprised when it's only 10.

His length gives us a better shot than Hickey who can't use his hands at all with these refs
