Speaking of exhibitions, I think the Newman coach is supposed to be on KGSO this morning for his coaches show, and if anyone has the ability to listen, I'd be interested in hearing about what he says regarding Saturday's game.
I unfortunately can't listen at work or I would... -

Jays won 94-69. It would seem as though rebounding may be an issue again as they were outrebounded in the 1st half 22-20.
Too bad, I was hoping they would get La Moyned....
Actually just checked...according to game tracker they were outrebounded 44-28.... :shock:. That may fly in the pre-season...but not in the Valley LOL. Missouri Western had 19 offensive rebounds...."He called me around noon and was thrilled," Brandt said.

Granted, it was his first game in front of a crowd that big...but I like poking fun at the Bluejays anyway I can..... :D"He called me around noon and was thrilled," Brandt said. "He said he was going to be a Shocker forever." -- RIP Guy, you WILL indeed be a Shocker forever!Comment

The jays may have to shoot over 75% on the season to make up for their rebounding. Even Woodfox wasn't that good.Comment

Box score confirms the 44-28 rebound edge to Missouri Western.Originally posted by Cdizzle
BTW, after 7' Brandon Beck, the tallest player for Missouri Western is 6'6", yet they had 4 players with 5 rebounds and 2 players with 4 rebounds.
Lest you think that what they lack in height, they make up for in bulk, Beck is also the heaviest player at 220 lbs.
In spite of this, Kenny Lawson, at 6'10" 250 lbs managed 4 points and 3 rebounds. While playing 1 less minute than Lawson, Beck managed 7 points and 5 rebounds. O yeah, Lawson also committed 4 fouls to Beck's 1."Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling playersComment

CU being outrebounded 44-28 shows a serious lack of basketball fundamentals. Ouch!Originally posted by The Mad HatterComment

Dana is nothing if not consistent. I think CU teams are typically poor rebounding teams not due to poor fundamentals (one can hardly accuse a CU team of that and keep a straight face) but due to these ideals:
Dana is the type of coach that likes to do 2 things....
1)He wants to take you out of your comfort zone. You want to run? He'll soft press to make you walk up the court. You want to slow it down? He'll press hard and give you long passes to entice you to speed up....his goal or advantage might not be evident on a single posession, but tends to show up in arrears.
2)He will hide his own weaknesses (in this case rebounding) by accentuating his strengths. His team isn't a big, strong high rising team so he isn't going to send everyone to the glass, he's going to send 2 out wide and deep to break if and when they get the rebound or score...you want to pound the offensive glass? Fine, we'll be shooting layups on the other end....at least that's how I see it.Comment

That is a fair statement. I still think blocking out for rebounds is a fundamental part of the game. I don't think HCGM would be happy getting beat on the boards that way regardless of any special game plan.
I had to pull up the article to see if they were really beaten that badly on the boards. Double Ouch!

If the Shockers outrebound them by that much, we ought to have a sure win. I can't wait until Jan. 9! :goshocks:Comment
