Great win, there were a ton of positives. Cumberland, Scott, and Williams were huge. I thought the X factor was Nsoseme getting after loose balls and rebounding.
Marshall and Goodin were a combined 2-15 from 3-point range. Giving them space and taking away dribble penetration is definitely the right move. At least this wasn't one of those years where X guys decide to have the greatest shooting night of their lives.
Just jumped another 1.5 points in kenpom and moved up in the rankings to 27
X scored 0.8 points per possession. LMFAO that's hilarious. Elite defense today combined with some awful offense.
We also did a great job on the offensive glass.
Great game plan, great execution. Only thing I'd like to see going forward is the guys like Williams, Moore and Frederick handling the ball some like Cumberland.
I am still a Jennifer skeptic. The only two shots I saw him take are 2 threes that he missed. That said I don’t argue against the result and the team seemed to be under control. Maybe this will be the group that truly gels around Cronin’s vision of defense first and deliberate offense basketball. It remains to be seen if he will ever let LoJoe be what it appears he is capable of which is taking the team over.He is playing behind a guy who is playing lights out. JJ had 9 assist today with 1 TO. He was all over defensively. Logan's time will come but it may not be this year.
Maybe Williams. Frederick's has not impressed so far this season and today was no different. Moore I don't think is confident enough in his ball handling at this point either.
I think next year (unless we get a grad transfer PG), we may see Cumberland at PG quite a bit. But for this year it's going to be Jenifer and Broome.
You do understand no one makes every shot? He still had 6 points and was 4-4 from the FT line. He guarded his ass off and distributed 9 assist with only 1 TO. He is a facilitator extraordinaire. Your Cronin restricts players growth is tired. Learn the game.I am still a Jennifer skeptic. The only two shots I saw him take are 2 threes that he missed.

I was probably a bit out of line with that comment but JJ is playing his ass off. I really don't want to spend another year reading how Coach is misusing his players.Learn the game? Hahahaha.
