Much better effort by the Cards in this game, especially the second half. Tough loss. Persons played with much more intensity. He will have to do that in upcoming games for the Cards to have any chance of a decent conference record. Kiapway is such a disappointment this season. Sellers also played a fine game.
Go Cards!

We fought tonight, which is good, but we continue to be situationally dumb instead of aware. And our coach still has no problem with Teague continuing to throw up 3’s while going ofer, no matter the situation. Otherwise it would stop or he wouldn’t play. We have some solid players, but we are NOT well coached. We display poor fundamentals, have the wrong guys taking the wrong shots far too often, and get lost/lax on D. Whitford is absolutely locked into his processes and systems and is too stubborn to change anything and is slow to react in games to make adjustments, call time outs, etc. He’s very similar to Pete lembo in terms of sticking to “the system” and “the process”. As RC so aptly put it after the Miami game, when the wheels started coming off our mechanics checked tire pressure and scratched their heads. But we put up a fight tonight and that is good. Hopefully we can do something good on Saturday vs Akron.

This madness with Teague has to stop.

I will also add we got nothing out of Tyler or Kip again. Keep playing the Freshman.

Mind blowing that our second tallest guy and rebounder has the green light to chuck threes instead of playing down on the block. Man have we hit the wall. How about the stellar guard play from our two seniors off the bench. What a sh*t show.

I actually thought we had the “W” when we took it to OT. I’m switching chairs for next game.....my back hurts anyway.

Did anyone just hear that stat from the announcers? 42-28 scoring edge in the paint for Kent State? Kinda hard for us two get points in the paint when one of our two bigs (well, taller guys) is busy leading the team in 3 point attempts (and misses). And our all Mac defensive team center can’t really guard.

Why in God's name is Teague allowed to shoot anywhere outside of the lane? Ofer 7-the last one a killer! Put a muzzle on him!!

One has to wonder if those 6 3-pointers Teague took had been shot by the likes of Sellers, Tyler, Mallers, or even Kiapaway, how many would have been made? 2-6? Even 1-6 could have won the game for us.

Come on coach get on Teague for continually shooting 3s! We did play hard but come on losing to somebody 15 straight in your conference. It's very frustrating to watch.

i had forgotten how much I hated that Kent screeching lady. Almost as bad as the Vandy whistling guy. I've noticed her a lot previously but didn't hear her this game. I did notice that the commercials were a lot louder than the telecast. Maybe they turn down the telecast to try to keep us from noticing that horrible woman.

After tonight Taj is a smooth 2-28 on the season from downtown. The good news is he’s 1-19 in MAC games though so I say GREEN LIGHT BABY!
