Hey, Kats. What is the rumor surrounding Hamga? I haven't heard anything about him.... and no Hummel tonight.
I had just heard we were in the running and he had visited us. Beyond that it is a dream.
Having some beef in the middle that could clean up the glass sure would be nice.
Kramer is at least going to try and play, though how much does a hurt Kramer help?
Pathetic crowd for Penn State tonight. That's embarassing. Grab the damn ball! that's five offensive rebounds on one posession.
It doesn't help a whole lot. Part of me wishes he would just rest his foot this game.
Giving them 5 chances at the hoop is not a good way to start.
We're just getting out-worked.
Nice move, bad finish!
First TV timeout: Well, about the only good thing we've done was LewJack's fake to the basket. Even that had an awful finish.
Thank you, JaJuan!
We might want to put a guy on Pringle, I'm just saying...
Come on guys, we can still get this thing. Just settle down and play D.
BOBBY BUCKETS!!!!
Why the F*** do we refuse to box out? Put your ass in their gut guys!!!!
2nd TV timeout 21-10. Calasan came to play tonight. It almost feels like we're exerting so much on defense that we relax when the shot goes up. That puts us out of position for the board.
About time Keaton Grant hit a 3. Is he heating up?
Marcus Green owes us three points. he should have had that rebound with four black shirts around him and four Penn state guys running to the other end of the floor. Just grab the damn ball.
Big shot by Ryne Smith. We're living by the three, but we need to go inside. ic an't beleive we're running Johnson on the high post.
Will someone please inform me when we stopped teaching guys to box out.
4th TV timeout 37-30 Penn State. We've fixed things defensively except on the glass. Our patchwork offense is even starting to work. Smith and Riddell are playing some solid minutes. That will only help for later.
Okay, whoever from the Paint Crew went to this game, you have my UNDYING respect. Especially so since school is back in session.
I'd hate to see the team bathroom for us. There is probably piss all over the walls because these guys can't hold on to their junk.
Three opportunities to get it under six = three turnovers.
Disjointed on offense, getting owned on the glass, making mistakes at the absolute wrong times, and we cannot simply grab the ball.
Yet we're still in this.
I think its about time for Moore to take over a game, right?
Moore has the ability to. This team is dying for us to just pound the ball inside to Johnson and Calasan, yet we have them playing 20 feet from the basket.
Our lack of ability to contain the dribble drive is killing us this year..
A threshold crossed: we got it under 6!
Calasan did exactly what we have needed to do this whole game.
There we go.. Moore baby!
Tough shot by Pringle. I didn't like E'Twaun's 3 before it.
Not a good time to go cold.. Cant let them get the momentum back
Moore needs hte ball more. I really hope Painter is telling them we're not required to shoot 3-pointers over a 2-3 zone. It's not even a true 2-3 they're playing.
DonPardo, you continue to be right.
money
HUGE to get the lead before this TV timeout.
We are not giving up offensive rebounds right now which is huge.. Also forced 5 TO's to our none.. I think we have finally settled down and that has a lot to do with Moore looking to lead this offense.. We are not getting jittery and quick for ourselves....
Agreed. We just need to keep it up for 10 more minutes.
Killer time to not box out.
these touch fouls are getting ridiculous.. let them play...
Johnson is really getting dominated all game long...
Yeah, Johnson has struggled mightily. As long as we can weather this cold spell and score on this possession we will be fine.
We have had way too many empty possessions. We need a score.
i think its time for grant to hit a big shot...
I don't care if Painter himself finds anotehr year of eligibility and hits it himself, as long as someone hits it.
Keaton Grant is such a liability right now.
10-0 run. we haven't scored in over 6 minutes.
This team is very frustrating.. We had about a 6 or 7 minute period there we had very good offensive movement and shot selection.. And the last 6 or 7 minutes it has looked like we have never played together before..
I just can't beleive that sequence.
Thank you LewJack for hitting a shot.
LewJack times 2!!!! Hell of a play by Chally.
I like Painter.. but it really seems like the last 12 minutes of a game he absolutely refuses to substitute.. When we hit the cold stretch I would have liked to see him insert Smith of Riddell..
Finally a loose ball situation that went our way!!
Ballgame. Thanks to everyone who stopped by.
