Agree USI looks like slow motion and the passing is horrendous

As bad as we are, EIU is 50% for the floor,40% from 3, 100% from free throw line. They can’t play any better and we can’tt play any worse.

Guards can’t shoot, can’t pass and can’t beat anyone off the bounce. That is a BAD combination if you want to win games.

Here is something I also noticed about when we play on the road. Every road loss -and this one will be a loss too - USI scores less than 60 points. Seems like we cant score on the road. Not sure if its confidence thing or we get bumped around and no calls or if we just have a mental block about shooting on the road. Whatever it is, we don’t hit 60, we don’t win.

You are correct about the speed thing, I’m also watching Missouri State womens game and they have a fast point and she just keep burning UE for layups all game. We need that too.

Better 2nd half, but just too big a hole getting down by 18 on the road at half. EIU is the leading team in the conference so losing at their place isn’t that bad and we did cut it to 11 point loss. Just need to come out better in the 1rst half next game.

the womens team is currently 4th in the OVC in average home attendance this season at around 850 per game. Very nice turnout for most of the games, but some of the non D1 games brought the average down a bit. Still a big jump from last season average. Attachments:

Not that USI is setting the world on fire, but Morehead is beating the stuffing out of us and we don’t get the calls. Can’t say how many times we get knocked to the ground and no call.the road is gonna be tough all year no matter who we play.

Morehead State won ONE game last year. That last 9 seconds sums up this game perfectly. This team is just not any good.

SIUE’s coach likes the press/running tempo game. But she doesn’t have the type of players to be doing this and thus they are getting gutted.

Great job by the ladies to take care of business.

Great job by the ladies to take care of business. When the women don’t turn the ball over, they are capable of playing really good basketball.

At this point of the season and watching all the OVC ladies teams,,I think the USI ladies will finish higher in the OVC than the mens team. I think 4th or 5th is a realistic goal for this team in the OVC. That would be a great accomplishment in year 1. He has also already signed 3 D1 level recruits for next year so the future looks promising.
