Does anyone give up more "And-1"'s than us?

Are there stats for that anywhere?

Colemans the king of fouling but fouling so weakly it does nothing to disrupt the shot. Probably lead the country in banked threes against also

This is something I was thinking of when I made my 'soft' thread. If you're going to foul, make damn sure the guy you're fouling has no chance of putting the ball near the rim.

Lydon can do nearly everything on the court.

Sadly, one of those things involves fouling the shooter just softly enough that the shot goes in.

Richardson had a really bad one against Pitt. Just lightly bumped into the guy for no reason, when he was about to score.

It's just this season. Lydon's attempts on a defensive play near the rim are comical. He should be learning more but can't really blame the guy. It probably would be VERY comical with Chino in there, actually. He has size and some muscle but no lift and no instincts whatsoever. Sometimes Coleman does ok and sometimes he's a disaster. He's still so rusty.

Right after they didn't whistle Pitt for hacking Lydon on our end? I'd like to see a replay of Richardson, I didn't perceive contact on that one, just reached and missed. Rough sequence of plays.

i think that the placards left behind on the baseline by the cheerleaders which stopped play read " AND ONE"

we get the least return on our investment when fouling down low. if you are going to foul someone going up for a bucket...modified assault (while making a play on the ball) is in order.

I was taught if you're going to foul, make sure the shot doesn't even get off. Very often I see our guys brush an opponent's back on their way to a dunk or layup. Either lay off or make a hard, clean attempt at the ball/hand area.

Craig Forth was by far the worst at this, by the way.

Yeah, I had to work and dvr the game, when the banked three occured I just shut it down and went to sleep, well tried to, I was thinking exactly the same thing , how can these and 1's keep happening? The banked threes, well thats just rotten luck. Side note, how do these guys who do nothing all career all of a sudden look like nba all-stars. For example, the Milon kid had a career high 16 pts and lights us up for what 22 in the first fing half? Wierd, Ironic.

and just to add salt to the wound of giving up gratuitous "and one" fouls is the hallmark characteristic of the Jim Boeheim era at Syracuse for crappy foul shooting on our end. That's what you call a lose lose. Not typically a Debbie Downer type, just venting a little after the back-to-back disappointments of losing to Louie and Pitt. BTW, Saturday's game against Pitt was the first time I attended a Cuse game on campus since graduating in 1977- been to a couple of dozen games since on the road around the northeast, but this was my first game on campus at the Dome. Really would have been sweet if they could have won. Scored some good seats- Section 124 Row DD. Took my daughter who was raised a Syracuse fan, she loved the seats but was real disappointed by the lose. As an aside, we got to the Dome about an hour and a half before the game and while watching the pre-game shoot around was surprised to find out my daughter knew Pittsburgh's Jamel Artis- he came over for a minute to say hello to us. Also saw Scoop at the Sheraton and at the game, very nice guy.

did you get yelled at by nine ushers like that embellished letter to the editor a few weeks ago?
