Re: Oakland gdt

IUPUI is absolutely terrible. If we don't beat them at home I may go ballistic...10-8 is not out of reach if we just play a little bit better. Not a lot, just a little bit...

The IUPUI comment was about the men. You have to read carefully to figure what's about the women and what's about the men.

I forgot which one I was talking about for a moment. Either way I still think they both teams finish 9-9.

Re: Oakland gdt

Both have to get more offensive minded. Both seem too tentative..timid...offensively.

You make a very good observation and charachterization here.They seem too content to pass the ball off for Kristin or Jenny to have to work for a decent shot.This might come from the type of motion offense though, where the idea ,I think, is to pass the ball around fast enough to get defensive players out of defensive position and get our players decent shots.I don't think our type of offense works that well for gaurds creating opportunities to drive the lane because we don't set enough screens,run clear outs, etc....our offense is more reliant on ball movement. The motion offense does give options upon receiving the pass to drive or pass, but there's usually no openings to drive so it ends up continually passing the ball.Maybe we're getting too slow running this offense or the other teams are getting too wise to it? Paul did say he studied and watched hrs of game film to figure out ways to play better against us.Mission accomplished ? (ex-Pres Bush hates this phrase)

Re: Oakland gdt

unless the bottom teams get hot the Jacks are in the Summit tournament right now as the 6th seed. 8th is WIU. UMKC NDSU SDSU and WIU all with current 4-5 records IUPUI would just about have to go undefeated to qualify at 1-8.
