Vogt and Rap both have 3, Eason has 2. Diarra is out reportedly out for the season - opting out due to covid concerns. We are in trouble at center, both this game and probably all season.

Mamadou contributes about the same whether he opted out or not. Gives us nothing but a body and fouls.
 
Is Lakhin available at all? Can he at least hold some ground in the paint and maybe set some screens?
 
Is this legit?

Dan Hoard reported it, due to Diarra out due to Covid concerns. He does have a baby, but you gotta wonder if he will ever play here again.

Rap being used as Vogt's primary backup may have helped Diarra make the decision. Diarra wasn't seeing - or going to see - many minutes as the third center. Brannen has made it clear he values offense more than defense out of his centers, so next year as a grad transfer I wouldn't be surprised to see Diarra go to a team that has a more Cronin like philosophy.
 
What a half! Man did we squander a lot of possessions. With Keith out we can’t score. Thank goodness Davenport has found his 3 ball this year. Played decent D but we look bad on offense when Keith is out. Some good things and some bad. Vogt and Rap was a sore spot. Mikey looked solid again. DD got 4 dimes and Eason 7 boards. Davenport 7 clear of next best in points. What the hell? 2020 I guess

Interesting development for big Vik. I hope he can play soon. But I’m not sure we can’t run Eason and Davenport at this point.
 
We should give Eason at the 5 a try. Vogt isn't that good, but he is at least good enough. Rap is an absolute disaster, need to find something better than him to backup Vogt.
 
So bad, best player can’t get two fouls in the first half... Vogt and Rap are just, well there’s a reason they were at NKU and Colgate

I think Vogt is serviceable...he just fouls too much. Rap is terrible...like one of the worst college basketball players I've seen come through this program in a long time.
 
So it’s an observation on college basketball. It’s a game, if teams were perfect what’s the point of watching.

So you don't think this team hasn't looked bad this game?

What's the point of a forum if you can't talk about the team whether its critiquing or praising them?
