Coaching?? He and combs together would be nice

Yes Coaching. 

[bstnsportsfan3]

nice game so for by katenda... on another note the ASN stream is crystal clear and no lag...love it

[GMG24]

My ideal lineup would be Reece, deckie, Holsten, combs, Katinda. Subbing the 3 freshman together Fuller, Brice, and Brown leaving a combo of Deckie, Reece, and Combs in the game. 

Katinda for 3!!!

He showed some flashes here and there, but I wonder if it isn't something more simple-every game could be his last.

Isn't that coaches job to instill this mentality in their players?

I'm (obviously) no fan of Benford, but it isn't unusual for players to find a little something extra when they know their run is about to be over. 

That said, his post rotations haven't made a lot of sense this year. Lack of production from Katenda could very easily be placed, in part, at Benford's feet.

Yeah, that's really concerning with Jeremy being limited!

Hilltoppers are punishing us inside right now.

Brice really needs to work on his defense in the off season. 31-21 WKU.  Not looking good with Combs on the bench.

I think a lot of it is the foul trouble and lack of depth we have with combs out

[GMG24]

36-24 WKU up 3:30 left in half.  Need to get it to 6 by half to have a shot.  A counter to their big dominance I'd like to see is some full court pressure try to make it a track meet

They owned us last time too. They had 17 offensive rebounds against us the last time we played

[GMG24]

Zone giving them fits

[bstnsportsfan3]

Wonder what Benford is going to say in his Half Time speech?

Several teams did just that to him and Combs earlier this season. Jeremy started making enough freebies to get them to stop. Fuller hasn't been playing many minutes in the second half of the season so no way to know if he's improved from the line...

[bstnsportsfan3]

these announcers....making it sound like benford has had to deal with a down program and he is "making progress" and "when they gel they will be special" ...give me a break..must have been so hard to rebuild a program after all those 20 win seasons that JJ had

Im wondering if this team will quit like last years team did against Rice

and they didnt. WKU was just the better team.

We gave a far better effort than last year against Rice.
