    And if we play against a team that knows how to press and play zone in the first round of the tournament, we could be going home early. It's our Kryptonite. Can you imagine what Houston would do to this team. Yikes. Hopefully we just get teams that like to run.

    Samuel and the other bigs are costing us this game. There is no sugarcoating their effort. We should be cruising right now but we can’t make simple put in baskets, won’t dunk it, and shooting free throws like we are blindfolded.

    Lunardi is great at nailing the field, but he isnt great at seeding, because no one really can be.

    Challenge with new players every year...nothing to play for but themselves. Not real Gators. Guns for Hire.

    Mike White admitted they don't even know how to play zone and Golden still hasn't solved it. White is mucking up the game and has his players crashing the offensive glass and we are standing around fumbling the ball out of bounds. Golden can't shoot FTs for us, though, or 8 ft bunnies, otherwise we would be up 10 right now, so the players have to do their job as well.

    I agree. Our depth and their second half fatigue should allow us to pull away in the second half. We’ve got to come out strong though - put them on their backs.

    If you haven't noticed every team has guns for hire nowadays so that is just a dumb thing to say

    Proof that we need to recruit new players just as hard as we acquire transfers.
    Who is next years' Pullin and Samuel?

    I don't agree. Haven't seem that from this team. They really seem to play for each other. Just in a funk right now.

    Yes. Most teams. Not sure how that makes it dumb.

    Hope you are right. Who people really are shows up when the pressure is on.

    You're falling for the narrative. We have missed 6 layups. Layups are a sign of beating the zone.
    MAKE SHOTS. They are beating the zone.
