It's hard to make comebacks when you can't ever play defense withou fouling.

Just drive into the lane and reward the out of control offensive player. Wish we got those.

It's funny. Last year I thought there was some issues with chemistry between the guards and our 7ft post player. This year, I realize the guards are just clueless on how to pass to the post and are too scared of turnovers to even make the effort.

My question then becomes why doesn't Marshall play the guys that actually help the team out and pass the ball? Or why doesn't he mention this to them every time down the floor or at every timeout.

I mean, it's a coaching thing too, I'm afraid.

WTF. Really? That was a foul?

This is bullshit.

Put in the guys on the end of the bench; maybe they can play defense with their feet.

+17 from the FT line. Nice.

That's the game plan of every team in the Valley against WSU, and it's freaking hilarious how it works to perfection. Been going on since the Smithson days. I can hardly stand to watch it from week to week.

Lets feed the post now

That last call on CE was BS! Was that just me that saw that?

BS

First pass to the post in 17 minutes and we get throws out of it. It wasn't made by Williams or Armstead in case you're keeping track at home.

This was a team of men for the first 20 games. They got pissed and didn't take **** from anyone.

Now it's a team full of tired sissies.

Carl Hall has taken only 5 shots tonight....

It's like bizarro Marshall is out there; sometimes a great team, sometimes a piece of crap team
