    Let's over play everyone and let them backdoor the shit out of us effectively letting them play 3 on 2, 2 on 1 etc. it's what we do.

    Good thing we brought in Conroy to teach some Tuff D. Maybe next time we hire a coach who actually has experience, you know, coaching

    Better extend him a couple more years, maybe with a raise so the class of 2030 knows he'll still be here

    I'm hearing Fultz is promising his firstborn if Romar gets 20 more years.

    Does anyone know if Romar or Conroy reads the boreds? Anyone?

    I think the offense will be fine. That is they still scored 90 points, just get out of the way of fultz and do his thing, open shit up for others, hope players set legit screens and other players step up, blah blah blah.

    What's with the overaggressive defense? Why the fuck is Dime, Timmins, and Dickerson playing defense 25 feet from the hoop? Why the fuck are guys encouraged to attempt to steal the pass to their defender on every possession? God the back doors were more open than Race Bannon at a pride festival (rumored). Literally your defense is filtering the opposition to the fucking hoop. Figure this shit out Romar / Conroy or enjoy watching getting your shit pushed in all year.

    Looking at the stats this game is fucking crazy. UW shot better (about 56%), blocked better (15 total), but was out rebounded by like 19, I'm guessing 15 of which were offensive, and Yale had 10 more assists.

    I still see people say that NEXT year is when we can judge Romar. After that year, then it would be time for a change

    Give up, romar is staying forever
    I don't even think it's because of his buyout. Romar loves Jesus and he's a great statesman for the UW
    I suggest he hangs out with Jesus sooner rather than later.

    Blocks is a bullshit category b/c in many cases it does nothing but give the ball back to other team. If you were to go back and watch the 15 blocks, i would wager 80% ended up back in Yale's hands. I'm not a huge stat nerd but one which did stand out in basketball is blocks resulting in possession for the defense. Guess who led the nba? Yup, the spurs and tim duncan.

    Blocks is inherently a lazy stat anyhow. While it can be relevant if you have a huge guy in the middle(a la upshaw) that effects shots from various players, the type UW had last night was more the lazy kind in the manner that they were jumping more worried about block stat than being in position or trying to catch up b/c they were beat on yet another back door and got a block.

    The most troubling thing for anyone following a team is when they are out rebounded, at home, with pac12 refs by 20. That is an alarming stat. Especially when our 7' guy who played 25 minutes ends up with 4, our jumping bean dime ends up with 2 in 28 minutes(same as crisp).

    What also screams problems are;

    - 10 assists on the game. Obviously just indicative of the offense chaos romar runs.
    - 28 personal fouls, wow.
    - 4 offensive rebounds(vs 21 for the opposition)

    A stat which UW will miss is AA getting to the line and shooting 90%. He was the reason romar's usual team FT woe's looked half decent last year. Now this team will go back to 60-65% again.

    I also already hate doogs and their putting things on Fultz for not being more aggressive in the first half. Christ, he is a frosh and shouldn't have to shoulder the load for all these guys. He should be a great compliment to a team and then maybe ease into being the man by pac12 play. It's a cop out that anyone is talking about markelle last night. He only led the team in rebounds, assists and points.

    I agree, 15 is a huge number though which is why I pointed it out. This defense and rebounding is horrible.

    Blocks can be overrated, but don't be so stuck on the surface to not realize what blocks do to the other team.

    A big guy blocking and altering shots is nearly necessary to play great defense.
