The reason why I used the word compliant is that the policy at the Coop is to wear masks.

“You gotta score to put points on the board.”

I see that face masks are required unless eating. 

His video looks good, but they all do. Much prefer someone with better size who can do the same things. That said, coach knows a lot more than I do about him. 

Instead of responding to coaching players can easily opt out. They would benefit from accepting discipline in the long run. As my mom used to say " You can't put an old head on young shoulders." 

Agree that he will  be an asset especially if he doesn't have to be the starting point guard. Like most shooters, he can be streaky, but when he is on, we don't have anyone else who can match him.

Fordham has their scalp.

When we don't shoot well, we need to play great defense. Too many open threes.

This is no surprise. Duquesne is a rising mid-major. Such teams typically have difficulty scheduling games with power 5 teams and if they can get such games, they are usually on the road. For the power 5 team, the risk of a loss often is not worth the gain.  Their conference games gives them the strength of schedule to get to the dance, so they don't need to play it. Although Pitt's recruiting is at a higher level than ours, and they should win, this game is much more important to us than to them and they want to avoid the potential blemish.  Pitt has cried foul for years about how Penn State treats them in football, but in hoops, they are in the same position with us. 

Amazing that we won a game where the other team had twice as many rebounds as us. 

I listened closely to Coach's comments after the La Salle game and without coming out and saying it directly, I had the impression that he thought we matched up well with St. Louis. In his interview tonight he said that if you out rebound them (I think we did by 10), most nights they are going to lose. He has confidence in his big men inside. Now we have to handle St. Bona, who is always well coached and who always gives us a good game. 

Dukes O line was over matched in the first half. Run game had trouble getting going. QB had a sub-par day, forcing some throws. On the radio show coming back from the game, the announcers kept stating that we are as good as YSU, but simply did not execute. In my view they are a superior team. I think they have a chance to go far.
