I don’t know if anyone else is watching West Virginia-Richmond, but WVU’s press is really something else. Richmond looks absolutely clueless against it.
Also, why the heck is Richmond ranked? They’re 56 on Kenpom and 50 on Torvik with their only win being against a brutally bad Kentucky team.
That press is extremely impressive, but they also haven’t missed a shot since about 8 min left in the game. Many of them 3s. Scary team if they get going.
I think you answered your own question at the end of your statement hah
Some bad mid range shots have gone in for them too. It’s just been a while since I remember watching a press obliterate an offense like WVU’s was for the last 10 minutes or so of that half.
For sure! They did what the best presses always do, make the other team hate that they are playing basketball.
ASU is down by 1 at the half to Grand Canyon. Christopher has 4 points, 2 Reb and 3 Ast on 0/5 shooting with 3 TOs
I looked up Grand Canyon University. Disappointingly far away from the Grand Canyon.
Watch the last 10 minutes of Duke-Louisville during Zions year lol.
GCU up by 2 over ASU with 23 seconds left. ASU is close to falling to 3-3 to start the season.
Running this back
ASU wins it on a 3 by Remy Martin with 6 seconds left. GCU had a last second shot rim out. Huge game by Martin, 31 points with 29 in the second half.
Martin is legit. Very exciting guy.
#BuildTheBrand had 11 on 3/9 shooting. Did chip in 4 boards, 3 assists, and 3 steals. Despite my jesting I’ve been fairly impressed with his play this far.
Josh Christopher is rumored to transfer because he didn’t get to take the last shot. Check out his Instagram stories this week to learn more.
Check out all social media platforms at 11:24, 8:24 Pacific to find out where he will be transferring
Christopher would be a massive boost for our roster this year. Clearly lack an alpha shot creator. Franz, Brooks and Livers play much better off of a ball dominant guard and he’d have been perfect alongside them. Wish it would’ve happened still honestly.
Yeah, as much as it annoyed me with how things played out, he definitely would’ve been a huge help to this year’s team.
Same. A dynamic scorer who can consistently get in the lane off the bounce is still something we’re missing.
The teams best ball handler is Zeb. But he is not quite ready for prime time who I think can get anywhere on the floor on the bounce but just not ready to know what to do when he gets there. Although as I have stated before the team is going to need him down the road for ball handling and team foul trouble. It is to bad there was not a real preseason to get more run for guys like him.
It felt like in the first games, all Zeb had to do was twitch and he had his man beat. But whereas Burke, or Walten or Simpson would just take it to the hoop when they had their men beat like that, Zeb seemed really tentative.
Biggest difference now between Zeb Jackson and Terrance Williams right now:
Terrance Williams - “We’ve been playing in tough games like these since elementary school.”
Zeb Jackson - Didn’t start for his high school team last year.
