Freemantle?

Kalk was already going to drop 30 on us. He might go for 60 now.

Honestly, defensively I don’t see much of a drop off. Free tries hard but he’s still awful on d.

It’s our ability to score that’s the big issue now, which is surprising considering what we thought and were told before the season started even with traore going down.

Yeah but imagine Hunter and Hugely out there as the only 2 trying to slow him down. Free not great on D but just running out of any big bodies.

I’ve seen the practice video of the offense absolutely clicking on line over the summer. Fast, easy buckets. Everyone draining open looks. It’s impressive. The main take Away might have been….offense looked so good bc it was going against our defense. Though I do think the defensive guards haven’t been bad.


The one thing that really seems off- how did this team dominate Dayton? Was something absolutely clicking until the season started? Was it simply: a scrimmage that’s hard to really take anything from? And at this point it just doesn’t matter. Give us one year where an all Big East player isn’t out for the season.

Article just released in The Enquirer (online) about Miller's response to Free's injury. Why do they insist on continuing to refer to it as a "lower body injury"? Is it not just a knee?

Offense isn't a bigger issue than defense, but people also need to understand that we're not going to do what we did against UConn every night.

They were clicking on the offensive end, and that's just not going to happen every game.

Reason i said that is because until last night our offense had looked like shit outside Morgan State, and I don't think we have much of a drop off defensively with Free not on the floor. Not like he's a good defender.

I agree that we aren't going to be shooting like that every night, but if we pass and move like we did, then I feel better moving forward.

Defense is going to be an issue with or without Free.
