Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
Wondering if our new coach will have any luck in reversing the trend of the last 10 years of losing to byu-provo? In the last 10 years we're 2-8. I know they're not in our conference, so perhaps the losses don't matter as much for some, but consistently losing to those tools is an issue for me. Just like losing to Utah, Weber, UVU or SUU consistently would be.
As bronco mendenhall said after UVAs victory over VT last week, creating a successful program starts with winning the state. I don't think basketball is any different.

It does start with the coach BUT the players themselves HAVE to believe they can beat those tools.Aggie19 wrote: ↑December 3rd, 2019, 10:46 amWondering if our new coach will have any luck in reversing the trend of the last 10 years of losing to byu-provo?

Re: Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
And I must admit, I don't think we're going to do it this year either. They're a pretty solid team once with Childs back at Center.
Their transfer from Arizona, Barcello, has been really good for them. They weren't sure he'd get a waiver to play immediately but tried anyways and it ended up being granted.
It sure would've been nice to have tried to get (a receive) a waiver for Marco Anthony this season.

Re: Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
I think Toolson has been a good edition as well. You take Toolson, Childs, Barcello, and if Hawes gets hot shooting, they're a really tough game.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Punch haws in the head, and guard the three, just enough to keep them shooting them, but missing. They shoot over 50% from three, they are hard to beat, but they are huckers from 3.

Re: Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
Of course it matters that we beat byu. We haven't beat them since. . . the apology game.

Re: Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
Sam is going to want to beat them at least once, I think the team will be fired up for it.

If you shine a light at him will he scurry back to his rat hole or burst in flames?
I'm going with flames.
I'm not saying Haws is a vampire. I'm just saying I've never personally seen him out in daylight.

Re: Another Monkey We Need To Get Off Our Back
Quality coaches plan for the future. Whether it's an idea of "just in case I'm still here" or just doing what's best for the school doesn't matter. I'm not reading into it at all. They're just setting USU up for the most success possible.Aggie in Boise wrote: ↑December 3rd, 2019, 6:31 pmDoes this mean they're planning on sticking around for a while?aggies22 wrote: ↑December 3rd, 2019, 6:11 pmThe coaching staff didn't want Marco for this season.

I think he's saying that they're living right, on and off, the court and magic happens and they make a lot of threes by throwing up trash shots and having then go in because of the aforementioned "magic".
