Are we bad or is LeMoyne decent?

[hoopsupstate]

I don‘t think this team will ever become good defensively. Number 1, there’s no urgency on the part of any of these players to want to stop people. They also have no rim protection. Number 2, this coaching staff, in their second year have shown no ability to coach defense. They were awful last year and this team looks worse. A good defensive coach DEMANDS effort and accountability. It was shown last year that certain players were not held accountable for either defending or getting back on defense. Until this mindset changes of not sitting players who don’t guard, nothing will change.

We are not good, talented or play defense. Lemoyne is probably solid for their league.

LeMoyne down double digits to CS Northridge in the 2nd half.

CS Northridge lost by double digits to the Bonnies in their first game.

Villanova down ten late at home against Columbia. Newton is not long with the Villanova job.

Based on LeMoyne getting destroyed by CSN, I'm going to go with we are that bad. We can't defend, at all.

 

[dwilmont44]

LeMoyne loses by 22

 

[Cuse4455]

Yikes.

 

[kcsu]

I stand by my take. We were awful. Red was beyond bad

Is LeMoyne bad or is Northridge decent?

Lemoyne made a grand total of 6 two point field goals tonight.

 

[jncuse]

The Lemoyne rightly brings up concerns -- especially defensive -- it should be a source of worry and no excuses can be made.

That being said I think its too early to fully dismiss this team. We do need to see something of substance in the next 3 games. We need to get some blowouts against these Q4 teams like almost everyone not named Nova or South Carolina is doing.

And they were home tonight…

Transitive property never applies in cbb.

Villanova down ten late at home against Columbia. Newton is not long with the Villanova job.

Nova lost by 10 to Columbia

 

[Jcuse_44]

Really difficult to tell if we’re a bad team that struggles on the defensive side of the ball or if LeMoyne is actually a decent team. They did seem to have some decent players out there.

So early in the season I really can’t tell. Very concerned about our defense. Yikes.

Yes.

LeMoyne lost 90-49 to UConn last night. They are now 346th in KenPom.
