Several of our road Ls were very close and not lots of intentional fouling
hokiepro 02/21/23 10:07 AM ET
Sure, never said it happened every game

If you want the “they’re human” defense…sure it’s true

I don't...not what I'm talking about

No bench, inexperience, PG that has to play all 40 minutes **

Any team without two of their top 7 rotation players will be inconsistent

More what the players do with the "plan" IMHO

I do hear what you are saying and we do have some limitations athletically.

GT & BC scouting also showed they didn’t need to be closely guarded at 3 pt

while true, I'm not sure how that explains road struggles
Pylons 02/20/23 11:25 AM ET
the travel wears team out **

Could be it. Maybe we need to get Fuente era "grit" shirts out of storage **
