Tough going early. We are down 16 -6. Several times ID has had wide open shots. Hopefully we can adjust and make this a game.
Offense was better at times, when paulo was in for adamu and Fernandez over quinlan. Idaho's radio guy said Fernandez started so i assume Quinlan didn't, witch to me is a good change. Adamu can be so good when he's more physically gifted than his defender, but when he's not he's a turnover machine. I still think DK helps us offensively even though he's not great, just to keep the ball alive, tip ins etc. No bad road wins, I'll take em all!BelgradeBobcat wrote: ↑Thu Jan 09, 2020 11:11 pmI caught a little bit of the game on my phone during breaks at the women's game. Whenever I was watching we looked absolutely awful on offense. I figured we were on our way to a 10 point or so loss. Pretty shocked to turn on the radio on the drive home and hear Frey make a couple of free-throws to put us up 1 and then hold on for the win.
I don't know what to think about this team. They defend, they're resilient, but they can be so horrible offensively. I thought we were going to go 0-the three point line, but it sounds like Ricketts finally got the range.
Is there any news on when Kirby will be back? We are just a different team with him. What happened to Quinlan? He showed so much potential his freshman year, thought he would be all conference by now. He has all the measurables. Maybe they should have redshirted him this year. Nice to see Fernandez playing a very efficient game. He definitely has the confidence to try to make his own shot which we desperately need.GoldstoneCat wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 7:15 amOffense was better at times, when paulo was in for adamu and Fernandez over quinlan.

Zeke is a tournover machine right now, and it looks like he NEVER spends any time in a gym. He does have all the measurables but it's pretty clear he's not a gym rat and hasn't improved fundamentaly.technoCat wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 10:19 amIs there any news on when Kirby will be back?
