  • Anyone beside me wishing Jake White was here to take JP’s minutes on this team. Jake White couldn’t find playing time a few years ago, yet on this team he would clearly be the best 4 on the team. As you can tell I am not thrilled JP is playing 20 minutes a game for this team.

      negative 1- Tyson, you are not a playmaker, you are a spot up shooter that doesn't know the difference between a good shot and a bad shot.

      Negative 2 - why would a coach have his best playmaker inbound the ball to the guy who thinks he's the playmaker and always plays hero all.

      Positives 1- Porter needs the keys to this team. He is the playmaker, and should have the ball in his hands Everytime the shot clock hits 9 seconds. All half court offense should be set by him as well.

      Positive 2- RC did a great job cutting down on the forced crap. Yes he had a couple that were forced but considering his PT, huge improvement and nice game for the most part.

      I will hold the other negatives back, but I sure hope this coach can get it together soon!

          For that matter, Evan Wessel can have his scholarship back too. Some tried to take it away from him long enough.

            Jake White sucked. He would 100% walk in to our starting lineup.

              Before all the numnuts jump on this saying I'm talking coach Brown up as a great coach... I'm not saying that at all. Just saying I understand how and why he got hired and now we are stuck with him for a few years for good or bad.
              This is correct.

                        • Back in the late 70's, before there was a 3 point line, teams would play more zone, squeezing the lane. Perimeter was basically free passing lanes and teams would generally pass it around the horn untill they would get a good look or maybe find a big In the paint for an easy 10 footer.
                          If you could hit a few of those open 15-20 foot 2 point shots, the defense would eventually go man. Once the defense went man, you would run a perpetual motion play untill the motion opened up an easy shot inside. Of course no shot clock helped.

                          Tulane thought zone would be great against the shox since their 3 point shooting is so poor. But the shox fooled them by penetrating with the dribble and getting some easy ones, as well as shooting so good on the perimeter.
                          so halftime.
                          Tulane goes man all the way out to the perimeter. No movement by the shox on offense except for the point and one wing, everyone else just stand at the 3 point line. This goes on untill someone jacks up a prayer. Easy to defend.

                          I think think this coaching staff has no perpetual motion plays in their playbook and just thinks isolation by way of screens is how to defeat man defense.
                          Move your bodies and move the gd ball.
                          One thousand one, pass the gd ball?

                            I wish Jake was on Tulane's team taking the charge against RC. It would have been a blocking foul for sure.
