Where Is Josh White

Is it unfair to say he has completely disappeared?

Meanwhile, TT is showing to be the only one who DOESNT belong in the dog house.

Tristants man has had at least 2 open 3's and he has missed 3 free throws with no defense... both of them should be in the dog house

Josh passes up on KNox when the man is wide open! What a joke

I'd say Holmen is playing very well, but yes, Josh and Domo haven't shown up as of yet.

CMJ · February 12, 2011

Five free throw misses in 6 attempts aren't helping either.

Andrew · February 12, 2011

Correction 5 missed free throws and 3 turnovers

Tristan has had hi issues to go along with being the ONLY offensive threat. Josh has had nothing, nada, zip.

CMJ · February 12, 2011

Why aren't you on George's case? He has been even more of a ghost than Josh.

Besides...the leading scorer today is Hogans. Can't say Tristan is the only offensive threat. I'd say Hogans has been best in show by far today actually.

You can point the finger at any coach or player right now.

It's time for everyone to look in the mirror and decide how they want to finish out their season

Thompson is not disciplined offensively. He throws up more junk and forces too many shots, plus he is a defensive liability. I don't know if he is trying to do too much, but he is not playing well.

WKU passes to players in position to shoot and runs a true offense. We force shots most of the time and rely on a one-on-one, playground style offense.

If Thompson is not playing well, I would like your review of White, Oduduwa, Johnso and Shorter. Yes Thompson is forcing some shots but with this stagnant offense, someone has to score. As far as defense I haven't seem much from anybody. Thompson may not be the best defensively but that could be said for just about the whole team. Johnson and White try but their size is too much to overcome particularly when they are not any quicker than bigger players. Holman is far from a good defensive player but he does seem to have improved effort. Odufuwa generally played good defense but he is getting overwhelmed by more balanced front courts. Hogans makes some great defensive plays but is not overall that good of a defensive player. He has some great blocks but also get beat a lot. Ever Shorter which is supposed to be NT's best defensive guard is often matched against ether bigger or quicker players and is having a tough time with both.

Odufuwa's offense relies on being fed the ball, and they aren't getting the ball to him consistently. I honestly think one of the problems is our offense. Too much one-on-one/playground style and not enough discipline.

We shot 49% from the floor today.

But we still got blown out and embarrassed on national tv, not near as close as the score indicated.

My point was...offense was not the main problem today.

Serious question here... Did Josh re-injure his wrist?

He seems hesitant to shoot from outside, he doesn't seem to be very successful (uncharacteristically so) when he does try, and all of what scoring he seems to be doing lately is on drives and lay-ins. Also, his free throw average is down. The only time in his 4 year career that he did worse from the stripe than what he's averaging this year was last season, when he was basically playing one handed.

Either his wrist is hurt or he's lost confidence in his shot. I think maybe it started with the Troy game (?) that I noticed him passing up wide open looks from beyond the arc
