Look at Daytons worst losses!! Oh my.
We can win… we need to play PERFECT though.
Go Dukes

Santa Clara beat #23 Gonzaga last night.

We cannot win if Clark and Grant continue to be missing in action. Good contributions from others. Great to see this from Dimichele again. Need to rebound the ball in half number 2.

Dambrot is killing this team.  Necas  has no business out there with dimichele and marhocic.  They cut it to 4.   Good time to rest dixon and clark.  Cmon man!!!   Might have ended their chance with idiotic substitutions.

Wow now we under achieve. I saw some predictions putting the Dukes in the top 50. Looks like that was an over estimate. Why watch or pay attention to this? Pathetic

Poor shooting, poor passing.  Plenty of floor mistakes by 5th and 6th year players.  That game should have been closer than the final result.
 

Really tired of watching this offense.  In the first half we repeatedly watched Grant and Clark try to go one-on-five!  Nice offense coach.  They need to play Necas and DiMichelle it was the only time the ball moved from side-to-side.  I’m really sick of this garbage excuse for a college-level offense.  It is an insult to anyone who loves the game. 
Don’t try and explain this away by claiming Dayton is such a great team; at least tonight they were very beatable.  Holmes could have gotten his points, but a competent team still wins this game.  Dayton left the door open so many times but Duquesne was unable to take advantage, mainly due to their own poor play. The substitutions made no sense.  They cut the lead from 12 to 4 with the ball and he pulls three guys off the court that contributed to the comeback!  Certainly these are well-trained athletes that can extend themselves now and then in a heated game.  I know you never feel tired when the game is going your way!  That’s when you find another gear!  Here we are halfway through the season and the coaches still don’t know who and when to substitute.  It looks like a year-long audition.   
Dave, save your money on the sports psychologist and spend it on a real coach.

Based on their history against Richmond (10-26) and St. Joe's (19-41), this team is looking at 0-5 in the conference. 

Well. same words we hear every year...gotta figure it out...gotta get over the hump...we have heard this for 7 years.  Why have the last 3 teams we have played figured it out Coach?  

It's time...

They did nothing to slow Holmes, allowed him to dribble and dribble to get into position to score.  They never attacked the ball when he was dribbling endlessly.  Holmes will never get away with that crap against any decent college defense!

The Dukes need a starting five that will give us a lead, not dig a hole. Dukes need to start using their advantage of big players. Start playing 2 guard offense and 3 bigs both in practice and on game day or we continue to lose.  Push the pace in transition and always to the hoop.  Dukes don't win scoring 60 points. Dixon got to the hoop, but passed it away? Even the announcers wondered WTF?  Drive to the hoop and make them foul. KD will continue to lose if nothing changes. One more thing. DiMichelle can and should play a lot going forward. This season isn't over, but it's time to do some things different. 

Holmes was a perimeter player last night until someone else shot then he sprinted to the basket, got rebs and put backs.   Our guys stand and watch the shot, rarely box out, never follow up their own shots.  Really bad fundamentals.
