RE: Game on ESPN

[Mick Bergman]

If anything I think most people think UC is better than expected now...
these same people don't realize how bad UD is this year.

In terms of the outcoached statement, how did they get outcoached? UD
did everything they could to keep the ball out of Hicks' and Max's
hands, therefore making UC shoot some outside shots. I don't see that as
outcoached since pretty much everybody expected them to try to take Max
and Eric out of the game. At that point you have to hope your guards
shoot the ball well.
Unfortunately, instead of passing the ball around until UC had an open
shot, Mohammad decided to try to penetrate and make dumb passes and
shots. That is why the fans are jumping off his bandwagon. If you play
out of control, you hurt the team, and right now Mohammad is playing big
time out of control.

That is just my opinion of course, but until Jihad slows down and lets
the guys get open I think the team will continue to play better under
Moore.

Subject: [UC Basketball] Game on ESPN

Too bad that game was on ESPN yesterday. More people got to see how bad
UC  
really is this year. Was nice to see 24 by UCs name but that was about
the only 
 good thing all day except Kirkland had another good game and UC finally
won. 
 Looked to me like UC was out coached. Anybody else think that? Hasnt
taken 
long  for people to get off Jihads bandwagon. Reality has set in for him
and 
the team.  But so far so good. As long as you got that 0 in the loss
column you 
can still  fool people. Don
