am i the only one that 67% shooting against us turns on a fire engine red light? i mean, we're talkin' 2 out of every 3 shots against us went in! 2 out of every 3!

we will not win any more basketball games if your opponent is knocking down 2 out of every 3 shots! i'll guarantee that! to hail with our offense until something is done to stop the bleeding defensively. so what are we suppose to do to win, shoot 90% from the floor?

guys, there's no discipline or "effort" on defense. that's a major, major, problem! you don't let teams come into your gym and shoot 67%! if i were coach, i would have had their azzes in the gym running their azzes off at 4:30am the following morning to convince them how important defense is! to me, i don't even want to discuss our offense unless our defense is on par...

A&T's problems are deep. I saw the stat sheet against SC State. A&T won because they shot well last Saturday. They were 9-22 from the 3-pt line and shot 50 percent total. That's about the best they have shot all year and SC State had a bad game. Every now and then you will have a game like that shooting 3's but this is not going to happen often.

The Aggies will not move up in the conference unless they get that mind set of shooting 3's out of their heads.
