Three tough games coming up. Two road games and Bakersfield is no easy out.

This UCSB team is pretty terrible. Not sure we can take much from this win relative to good play vs a good team.

Need to figure some other offensive weapons. Future teams are going to throw a blanket on semi and make us score in other ways.

Only complaint about tonight is the free pitches. It seemed like we had overcome this problem but our free pitches were just terrible tonight and at some point it will cost us in a big moment.

Other than that nice game and pony up!

One additional comlaint: our defense wasnt great. We need to not give teams so many open looks from three and we got driven around more often than we should have. We seemed one step slow much of the time. It's not as obvious when you are up 20 but we can't let that happen if we want to dance. Much more obvious against Michigan but still apparent here.

We seemed to really rely on the 3 and that concerns me. We made a lot of these which can conceal the problem, but it seems to me that we are just settling for the 3. Maybe we just took what they gave us, but we just don't seem as polished offensively. It is early and roles are being developed so I am certainly not worried at this point. Just don't want to see us shooting that many 3's going forward. Very impressed with Jarrey's game to this point. He has really developed. Semi is a beast. Free throws reminded me of the old days. Miss the first make the second. Got better in the second half. We did what we needed to do. Now we need to go on a nice big run before conference play.

Our post play is horrible. We can hardly throw the ball inside. Semi should be playing the three but we have him at the 4/5.

We don't have anyone that can drive to the basket at will. And we still don't have a true point guard that can get everyone else easy baskets.

I hope next year we get a center via Juco or Grad Transfer.
