As for the game, a win is a win. It is troubling that one-and ones are missed at the end of game especially by a senior, Shannon Scott. Obviously,poor free throw shooting made this game close.How many times is Loving going to turn the ball over on the dribble before he realizes he should not dribble.Amir is getting worse. How can that happen?
It was good to see Cam Williams finally hit a shot.I hope that is in indication of things to come. I like Tate's energy, but he needs to learn that he can't power the ball into the basket like he did in high school. Get the offensive rebound and kick it out when surrounded by bigs.
The refs missed two goal-tending calls that may have cost NW the game, but the reaction by Coach Collins on the 2nd miss should have resulted in a technical foul. Very poor sideline behavior.
I realize this. But this class is pretty good overall. Mitchell stats arent' great. But he has dealt with injuries off and on. If you have watched any highlights of Mitchell though, he is impressive. As long as he can stay healthy. Not worried about stats. I am VERY excited for Grandstaff. The kid can just flat out shoot the ball. Obviously, Harris is the future PG for the next 4yrs. OSU has no one else for that position. Thats a little troublesome. And although Giddens is a little raw offensively, he is a beast defensively and will provide a presence down low that OSU hasn't had in a while. Add in the returning players next year (minus Russel), and the VaTech kid who is redshirting, and I feel the future is bright.
The game..ya, Cam as been disappointing after lighting it up early. I figured he wouldn't be as good in Big Ten...but thought he would be better than he has shooting the ball. Agree about Tate. But I can live with his mistakes because he is the only one who plays with consistant effort. He will learn and get better.
Goal tending..one definately. Thought the second one was questionable. And yes, Collins went ape shit. Pretty funny actually.
Wouldn't classify it as a great win by any means. But it was a MUST win game.
