Sure, I wish Hinson would schedule better and not absolutely kill the league's RPI but with all the problems he had coming in, it's almost fair to judge this as his first year.Where oh where is our T. Boone Pickens.

This team is really where i thought they would be at this point in the season. The one thing that concerns me is the inability to control the defensive board
in the last 3 ball games. There is a spot open on the front line for someone...anyone willing to sell out and rebound on the defensive end. I thought Kelly
was the answer but he seems to have lost his desire to clean the glass. I guarantee we will win every game we out rebound our opponent in the Valley.
That is the trade mark of a HCGM team and we need to recapture it. Everything else will take care of itself."Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media,
which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Originally posted by Bluzrover View PostI believe that's due more to increased playing time than blowing it up. But that's just my opinion obviously as he's only playing four more minutes per game thus far. If he can start moving his feet instead of his body while playing defense, maybe he's on the court a bit more and his numbers get even better. No doubt about it, he has the talent.
Darius Carter Senior Year: 22.5 mpg, 11.5 ppg, 6.1 rpg
Carl Hall Junior Year: 22.3 mpg, 8.5 ppg, 5.0 rpg
Carl Hall Senior Year: 28.6 pmpg, 12.5 ppg, 6.8 rpg
Statistically, DC is a better minute for minute player than Hall in both his junior and senior season, and shows better improvement. He needs more minutes.Livin the dream

Originally posted by jdshock View PostI'm sure there's some truth to the statement. Part of it's gotta be that HCGM is just talking up his competition, though. Muller is the type of guy to vote his team number one in the preseason against a team that is coming off an undefeated regular season and a single digit national ranking. HCGM is the type of guy to build up the teams he goes against. Other elite coaches are always doing that too. I always hear Pitino, Cal, and Coach K talking about how great their opponents were and how much work their own team has to do.Originally posted by BleacherReportFred VanVleet on Shockers' 3-Pt Shooting Confidence -- ' Honestly, I just tell these guys to let their nuts hang.'

I imagine an exchange between HCGM and Muller going something like this...
Marshall: "Hey Dan, the ocean called. They're running out of shrimp."
Muller: "Oh yeah, Gregg? Well the jerk store called and they're running out of you!"
Marshall: "What's the difference? You're their all-time best-seller.""In God we trust, all others must bring data." - W. Edwards Deming

As for other surprises, I'll join those not expecting the FT struggles by FVV and Baker and the lack of impact by Glass. Also, just how much impact Early's absence would have on other guys (especially FVV); and the deadeye three-point shooting by Carter, WSU's new secret weapon.
