That's a good point that 6 of these 8 guys are new and do need as much time together as possible. Hopefully that serves us well come conference play. I do think our freshmen will see some more PT come in December. With that, I think the issue is more that Hodge doesn’t trust freshmen.
Regarding this, that's a good question. Would I trade one of those wins for Mason? No. Would I trade it for Vice being a 15 minute/game contributor? Yes. The post is my biggest area of concern with Sissoko being so inconsistent. Per ESPN, we are ranked 321 out of 362 in blocks per game and for as good as we are on defense, we are 1 of 4 teams in the top 20 of scoring defense who allow a shooting percentage above 40%. I think that's a direct result of our weakness in post defense. We allowed 26 points in the paint yesterday and who knows how many more from three throws generated by committing fouls around the rim.
May be odd to talk about Vice when the focus has been Cotton and Mason but again, we are struggling on the interior.
Unless we’re sitting at the top of the conference, year after year, this is going to be a regular occurrence. And that’s not a slight at UNT. It’s the mark of today’s youth/families.
Grass is always greener. My kid deserves better. It’s easier to jump than it is to fight.
We’re talking about 2 different scripts here. The NT script on the helmets isn’t ideal. The MG script on the BKB uniforms was perfect….for that application.
