Hasn't been posted yet. In the pre-game Miles talked about the Jays usually running some complex offensive sets but this season (i'm assuming the lack of experience) it's transition and hunting for 3s. burgundy95 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalfan Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I watched a big beat us down the court fir two. I would consider it a fast break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im trying to remember but I think it was Creightons second bucket? We clamped down on them for most of the evening. We lost Ballock on a few occasions but he also hit some tough shots. Their big SLOW Aussie’s are just not good enough to play in that type of game. I’m surprised in recruiting they haven’t tried to find someone more like Roby for down low.

Those guys are serviceable for what they want to do with the center position which is guard an opposing center and also make people pay for covering them on the 3. None of them really shoot 3s or really guard PFs though so you're talking about 3 guys for one spot on a team that doesn't have a stretch 4. Maybe they could have found one in Platteview. Poor roster composition....no Nebraska kids on the squad....which team is that now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some tweets about people being tense about a double digit lead not being enough but to the non-invested viewer you just saw dominance. Whoa! KenPom now has heartbeat monitor capabilities for Creighton fans? I really need to subscribe to his content!

We don’t ever want anyone in foul trouble but at this point in the year it looks like we mask when Palmer is in foul trouble pretty well. Nana either comes in and provides spacing or we go big which really intrigues me in spirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundy95 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ty-Shon should be getting more flack. He didn't show up. We completely took him out of the game. Its nice to see us do this to them for once when so many times, they've been able to take out our best players over the years or at least limit them severely.

49r Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 at what point are we going to recognize the power of these road alternate uniforms? We wore the pinstripe reds at Minnesota, but these against Creighton and Clemson. My vote is we ride this uniform horse till it dies.

Beat them at their own game. Couldn't be more pleased with how this game went. I read somewhere else that CU had 5 fast-break points, all fairly early in the game..... but the point is still the same, the Jays never truly sparked a comeback through quick scores.

hhcmatt Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I'll have to note it when I re-watch the game but I noticed at one point later in the game that the Jays had little used Cashaw and Joseph in the game at the same time. One might classify this attempt as "desperate" in order to get back in that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uneblinstu Posted December 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ballock tried to take a charge vs. Roby early in the game, got to the spot and just started leaning backwards. I'm not sure Roby ever made contact. It was kinda hilarious. hhcmatt and ladyhusker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huskerpapa Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 4 hours ago, Norm Peterson said: Another thought I had about Sipple's "high-ranking school official" comment was who that school official could possibly be. Is the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences a "high-ranking school official?" Sure. But, in this context, Sipple wouldn't have referred to them as such. In the context of the athletic department, the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences doesn't really qualify as "high-ranking." The list of those who would qualify for that designation is … very short: Hank Bounds Ronnie Green Bill Moos Marc Boehm That's it. Anyone other than those 4 people doesn't really count as a "high-ranking school official" in the context of talking about an athletic program. I have a guess as to who that official was, but I can tell you I doubt it was Moos or Boehm. Ahhh, you forgot HB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
