Mayfield hit 4 of his last 5 FT’s
yeah, it’s amazing when 5-10 from the line brings your FT shooting % UP
just noticed, Mayfield had a double / double also.
If he could just learn to hit from the line!!

mayfield double double 4-11 fg 0-6 3pt was garbage pts came after we are down 20+ under 6 min left :
Henry 6 turnovers :o must be tough having to play 30+ min
Major plays does not start Braz and only plays him 17 min :o
Briscoe only gets 3 shots and 17 min when were getting blown out for 40 min. He scored 24 at Arkansas as a freshman 50% shooting 3 ball … I guess Major Size King didn’t get the memo. :o
0-2 OOC/BCS, But the bright side is … WERE REALLY TALL :))
Guys fought til the end, made the score respectable. If we hit FT’s and get a little more from Braz, it’s a much closer game.
Arkansas’ tempo made us play faster than I believe Major would have liked early in the game and we forced some rushed looks.
PH struggle tonight with the pressure, forcing too may weak passes out of double teams.
Our defense was really poor and half assed for long stretches tonight. This was yet another fast, athletic team and we didn’t get equal officiating, but we have got to get past that. We’re just not going to get calls against these teams and we cannot play scared or with anything less than maximum focus and effort. We’re not good enough to compete against this level of athleticism unless we play all out. And everything good for us starts with good defense. It’s imperative that we make a good effort all the time. We did against Miami for most of the game and lost anyway to a hot shooting, good rebounding team, but that doesn’t mean we should give up on D.
KJ and Terrence Williams both played pretty well and had good stat lines, but fouled too often.
I dont know the details about Bras’ mom or what’s in his head, but he is doing us no favors right now. If he doesnt turn it around on the court, then we’re already just playing out the string for the entire season. It is a shame we have no other post options other than him. I like KJ but he’s a 3-4 tweener, and I am tired of asking him to be a 5 man. He cant seem to stay healthy as a result of playing out of position.
Aside from a couple of drives, one of Pierria’s weaker games this year. Too many TO’s, some lazy passes, and was worried he got hurt tonight. He’s playing too many minutes as well. We need Luka to take some of the load off him.
EVic played well but just cannot finish his aggressive drives on the basket. He needs strength to become effective.
I don’t know what else to say about this team right now. Braswell not playing with maximum effort and focus just throws us off so badly.
At least they didn’t give up. I will say that.
We need Luka, and we need 100% from Braswell, and someone else besides JB has got to step up and become a reliable scorer (and not a defensive liability). We really should have 3 double digit scorers on this team. I thought it was gonna be Mayfield, but he has to put some arc on his FTs or its never gonna happen for him.
only kept up with the game online but felt this was going to happen vs ark since ecu blitzed us with their late game press. love henry but he has serious flaws in his game…hes more like a sf than a pg on offense and struggles with turnovers. 3rd straight bad game for bras…if that trend keeps up we have no chance.
Iron, we handled the press pretty well IMO. We had too many TOs, but most of them did not come against it.
Henry made some pretty poor passes.
Without Braswell playing well, this team isn’t going to achieve much this season, unless some other post players really step up. Hope it’s not necessary, and Braswell is able to come back to form (because the other issues he’s dealing with improve).
The parts I saw, guys seemed to be forcing plays and making poor decisions on passes against the pressure D. I don’t think Arkansas is all that good, but a road game with poor play and a missing post player and it’s a blowout, no surprise there. Arkansas got lazy and let the Niners get it closer, but they never really seemed in trouble. Barnett was the only guy that seemed to be making plays (with a few bright spots from Henry), until the end when things got easier.
I also agree with above, Henry needs more rest in game, he’s going to hit the wall in conference with the intensity that he plays with.
Not sure what else to say, this game was not fun to watch. Hope the guys figure some things out for Memphis. A10 play, while they may lack the dominant post players you’d see in other conferences, is going to have some really tough teams. If the team plays like this, expect a finish in the 11-13 range again. But I just have trouble believing Braswell is going to struggle like this the whole season.
Well, I enjoyed watching it, but not for our play.
<3 Mike Anderson. Best coach.
is football here yet?
Braswell needs to get slapped in the face and told he’s a pussy. Sorry to be the one to say this, but damnit he is 6’9 and gets pushed around like a little biatch. Either you’re tough or not, and we need a center who can actually bang with people. Braswell has a ton of talent and potential, but he is a pansy.
Conveniently left out the rest of the line from that game eh?
[pre]0 BRISCOE,Jamar… g 9-19 6-10 0-0 0 2 2 4 24 3 6 0 2 37[/pre]
That’s 6 TOs to 3 assists. Great team effort, scoring 24 in a 98-70 loss. But hey, who’s counting W’s as long as your ccousin/nephew/whatever gets some PT.
And that’s why Anderson is the coach of Arkansas and not John Pelphrey. Good try though.

You clearly dont have a point here in regards to our game last night. You also clearly don’t understand mine.
Briscoe has had more success playing against Arkansas in their gym than any present member/PG on our team.
Major should have been smart enough to take advantage of that, and he was not. End of Story.
If your comparing freshman PG play vs Arkansas Briscoe and Henry
Id take 24pts 47% 6to’s 3ast (Briscoe) in a loss over 6pts 33% 6to’s 4ast (Henry) in a loss any day. This is not even close.
You seem just as confused in regards to comparative numbers as you are about Briscoe’s relation to SOKOOL. :
Lets not turn this into a Briscoe thread because its obvious that this team is no better bringing Briscoe off the bench for 16-17min… we are much worse !!!
Charlotte vs Arkansas, Major vs. Anderson, is the topic.
We sucked… Anything typed other than that is a waste of key strokes and bandwidth.

Briscoe (and all the other guards) was having a tough time dealing the Arkansas players that swarmed around them.
Let’s face it, they were simply a better team. None of our guards would start, or probably play much for Arkansas.
We sucked. Our TOs didn’t start piling up until the second half. At one point late in first or early second they had more TOs than us. We just could not hit anything (FTs…). Oh well, lets just move onto the next one. The whole team sucked. Could not finish, could not hit free throws, couldn’t do anything really.
Sokool–A lose is a lose no matter if you score 40 or 1. You say lets not have it a Briscoe vs. whoever thread…then don’t make your first post about Briscoe and MAJOR SIZE KING blah blah blah. It is not Majors fault Briscoe took 3 shots…it is his.
Sanchez get a haircut. Dude is whiter than me, & has an Afro. You look like a dumb a55!
[quote=“49erCC, post:1, topic:26114”]Mayfield hit 4 of his last 5 FT’s[/quote]It’s not a difficult shot and even easier when it doesn’t matter.
The good news is - we showed a team effort. The bad news is - the team sucked at almost every stat.
If Braswell doesn’t get his shit together, it’s going to be a long and sorry season.
