GDT: Idaho

Re: GDT: Idaho

Jacks not playing well in OT. Vandals have a 6 point lead. 84-78 with 3 minutes to play.

Re: GDT: Idaho

I think we can see flashes of what this team can do this year. If Hess can stay hot, it will open it up for Daum immensely.

Daum still trying to figure it out and will need to step up his interior defense.

Re: GDT: Idaho

Jacks have been way too soft on defense. Idaho just nailed another open 3

And 3 point defense. We have to be year in year out the worst at defending the three.

Jacks cant get any stops. 90-83 with 1:00 to play.

Re: GDT: Idaho

Telly with a 3, 90-86. Need stops. Vandals 14-31 from 3pt line. Jacks 16-36 on 3 pointers.

Our defensive strategy is: "let's hope they miss"

I agree...can we just copy and paste this as the first post in every game thread just to get it out if the way?

Re: GDT: Idaho

Doesn't matter how well we shoot if you don't play defense you are not going to win a lot of games.

Yup. Tevin King having a real tough OT too

Re: GDT: Idaho

Daum fouls out. A couple of early ticky-tack foul calls cost him.

Re: GDT: Idaho

King with another costly turnover after Vandals miss both FT's. Jacks are gonna lose.

Re: GDT: Idaho

This loss is the most frustrating of the year so far to me. Jacks played well enough offensively to win. Defense and rebounding need some work.

Nice to see Hess and Daum have big games. I think we'll see that quite a bit this season

Re: GDT: Idaho

The purists will be upset, but that was an entertaining game. You don't often see that many shooters get hot from the arc. It got a little crazy.

Hopefully the shooting carries over for the Jacks. At least I'm a lot more interested in the upcoming Pentagon games than I was a week ago. It's strange to think those will be the first "home" games (D1) of the season.

Defense and rebounding. Improve both a little and we might be in business by Summit time.

Re: GDT: Idaho

If you give up 96 to Idaho, there are significant issues. I've got no interest in watching a 3 pt shooting contest every game with optional defense.
