That paired with forcing 20 turnovers (like I said we probably could) resulted in us getting 19 more shot attempts. I think that's your difference. Miles looks like the most improved guy from last year on the squad.

I seriously don't know how gamblers handle that kind of ridiculousness...I couldn't handle that kind of injustice. Much like the Robert Morris game, we still comfortably won despite being the poorer shooting team. I don't like being the poorer shooting team, but I think it is a good sign that we can overcome it. Jalen Benjamin was unstoppable, 9 of 10 from the field with lots of deep ones. A couple things I have noticed all season (but need to fact check) is we are turning the ball over much less than our opponents, and we are committing much less fouls than our opponents. Those are 2 great things to get in the habit of. I don't recall anyone being in foul trouble at all yet this season. I am still not convinced we have to have Sears/Schmock be an either/or. I wouldn't mind seeing Miles run PG with Lunden at SG when Sears is out. Both Miles & Lunden have looked good this season IMO and it feels like they should be up around 25+ minutes not 20/20. Another great night defensively for Jason. He is really fun to watch on the defensive end of the court. Looking forward to hearing from McKinney on Concordia and their storied history and potent lineup!

Mount was determined to prevent the three point shot and the team adjusted and won going away. It shows an ability to win by taking what the defense giving. This is a remarkable attribute.

Go Bobcats! I was unable to either attend or watch the MSM game, but this is what the stat sheet tells me. We took 37 threes against Belmont, 31 against Cleveland State, 26 against Bobby Mo, 24 against Kentucky and 14 last night. Obvious trend downward but I would expect us on the season to average high teens to low/mid 20s. I think everybody can make threes (don't know about Ezuma) and while Jason is not hitting them at a high clip right now I hope he is able to recover from XU coaching and keeps shooting them. Brod is in a funk but he is a shooter and I guarantee he won't continue to shoot 22%. Schmock also will certainly improve his percentage. How about Clayton being ready for the big lights? Nice. As El Gato points out, stat sheet tells me we adjusted, including hitting the boards especially on the offensive end. Coaching. Great piece in The Athletic in another thread.

Compare Clayton confidence as a true frosh compared to Granger as a true frosh from a year ago...and there is a big difference along with a completely different skill-set. I don't see how Granger doesn't redshirt this year and ultimately I think it's going to benefit him and the program better down the road.

I don't see how Granger doesn't redshirt this year and ultimately I think it's going to benefit him and the program better down the road. I think that a case can sometimes be made for players, if the depth is there, and especially bigger guys who can contribute as a freshman but are expected to have a much bigger upside as they mature, to go ahead and play a significant reserve role as a freshman and redshirt their second year. It might even be a good idea for Granger and Clayton to flip next season (Granger playing and Clayton redshirting). I think it gives the young player a major dose of what they are facing in real games and I would think contribute to their buy-in as to what they need to work on in preparation for the following season. Also, with Clayton being so young, this approach might be especially beneficial or him.

However, I've been thinking it might not be such a smart idea for the likes of Ohio University to redshirt players with the more and more likelihood that the player will end up in the portal.

That passes the eye test? Of course if he gets to 6-10 and continues to shoot the three well and run the floor he's going to present a ton of problems for our opponents. I like his current contributions and certainly enjoy thinking of his potential.

I think he looks taller than Carter and BVP.
