The first half took over an hour. That's absurd.

I realize that teams will adjust, but this is fricking ridiculous what we're seeing today. It's past the point of ridiculousness.

And I like that JJ lets them play through shite and doesn't call TOs. If it gets out of control, we always can call a TO, but we've played through everything and have stayed in this game at the pace we're playing. I like it.

Umass made some tough baskets and we missed some GREAT looks. I think this could flip in our favor quick, just gonna have to deal with the fouling adversity

Per Kevin Ford - Martin listed as "doubtful" to play in second half.

With such little time left take the TO to throw it up court and try to get off a decent shot instead of Hickey always running it up court for a half court shot.


Then you are going against a set defense. We have a better chance of driving for a decent end of the half shot than pulling off a Christian Laettner.

LSU will win if they can figure out how to not "commit" so many fouls.

We usually only get off a half court shot in that situation. If you call a timeout it gives you time to throw it up the court.


I'll pass your concerns on to Coach Jones.

I think they're best big guy only having two fouls is huge. Hope we can overcome Martin being hurt

Sucks about jarrell. So excited to see him play. Probably best to keep him out though

And you probably draw a foul today and get to the line.. There's no point in not using a timeout if they hit a shot with 5 seconds left and you have all 6 TOs. By the time you inbound it the clock will be at 2 or 3 seconds.
