Penn Gameday...

was at game n honestly first march drew up that pathetic end of reg time out call. Gait wasn’t doing much on side lines. 2nd the entire bench even players coming off were dead moping the crowd getting up n cheering seemed to spark them playing little better. D was good they made so many stops n gave ball to O who just did not do anything with it. Some calls by refs were horrible. Timeout by penn when dude didn’t even have ball n another one they never were in box. The one timeout where guy didn’t have ball even the one ref was confused why other gave it.

They missed few offsides n outside screaming bout it. The hit to leo should been looked at to see if was in head but they refused. Offense has been the big culprit lately. Yes mullen struggling but d has given the ball enough O has to make their chances count. Every team is sliding early n from middle. Why arnt we following the middle slide guy n quick pass down n quick pass baxk up to open middle shot. Also no off ball movement.

Really the lack of any life from team on bench or players was concerning. Mullen at one point was by himself just staring into space no interacting with anyone. Think a lot of things wrong is mental but they need to man up. Ultimately was an ugly ugly win but win no less. Like said if wasn’t for syracuse crowd who was louder n better then penn couldn’t even tell if was penn fans there for most of game. But the crowd seem to give boys some energy. Every time mullen did win big faceoff when he came off all of us cheered n said positive things.

also only coach i saw so any kind of emotion or talk to players was coach O. Few times he was telling kittleberge he wasn’t doing what he was suppose to. Coach O wasn’t screaming at guys at times but he was talking in raised voice trying to light fire. Gait all see him do was stand n smile even if was bad. He talk with refs but mostly none of coach besides O talked much to players n none gave them any lip for poor passing or poor effort.

Mean the passing without anyone on them was into ground n had to save it at times. Penn was begging team to take midrange to longer shots n we didn’t n if did was high wide or save. Ball has to move faster n quickly. Also to much watching guys dodge instead moving to open space. This offense needs to get on track in a hurry. This D has been solid but can’t play D the entire game. Thought beck down low n chuck baxk at lsm was big. Chuck was doing what he does in middle of field.

Last thing this team needs a leader. Someone needs to get these guys hyped pumped or pissed off. I’ve never seen a team just stand so still during a game before. Penn players on bench all hyped for most of game on even small plays. Someone needs to step up n be the leader.

Sure some notice ochoa did not touch the field at all from what i saw. Mccarthy mostly played dmid. Thought beck did great job at close also n gave us chuck back at lsm.

Really need to fix the offense not sure what they’re even trying to do half time. Just looks unorganized n lost. Also when can’t make simple passes clean you can see hesitation on trying to thread needle or skip pass. But these are plays gotta be able to make. Joey had nice one to geb maby lofted it lil to much. But there were good amounts of looks for skips passes or threading it but as said barely make simple passes n could see they didn’t wanna risk those kind of passes.

Grant was just warm up but kraftson looked really good. Really like to give that kid some runs. Maby even give rawson some runs also. This O needs to find themslves. As said to much standing still and watching. Not enough off ball movement not enough quick passing. Also guys need to move their feet with passing n catching. Specially when teams pressing out a lot. Can’t just stand there waiting for ball so second ya catch it dude right there to check ya. Move your dam feet run to ball.

Had some good looks n either went wide or high or good save. Need to bury our chances. Also felt times when got good look n goalie n D moving we took to long to get shot off. Sometimes gotta catch n rip in one. Had few where we caught n ripped it but again missed.

Very happy with defense n even mccools play. But the offense and faceoff need to get better. Not sure if offense use to getting ball so much from faceoffs n lately not happening their playing diff or just not getting into groove or what. But this offense is to talented to look how they have. Also can we clear out n give space to dodgers. Get times trying to set pick but lately seems turns into a double n we have no idea what to do with ball. Also feel we telegraphing our pics to much making it simple to read n go around.

Wasn’t great hustle today maby towards end was least better. But needs to be hustle all game. Can’t keep digging urself hole n trying to climb out of it. Need to start game fast n finish fast n strong. Need to give it everything you got on every play. Not sure some guys are worn down as did see a lot of guys bending over or even quick getting checked out by medical stuff. But need to rest recover n start playing with some intensity.

On to hopkins.
