That stretch where RM turned it over a couple of times in a row did some damage to us but EMan should help next year. At any rate good season by the Mustangs.

Manuel should never be in the game again if it looks like the other teams even thinks about the press

That's kinda harsh. And I disagree. His speed creates mismatches everywhere. Just a few mistakes.

Yes, it creates a mismatch for his hands when trying to interact with the ball

The press shouldn't of bothered us in this game. We had two 3 on 2 at the free throw line and got zero points. That's unacceptable and there is no reason for it.

Sorry I agree Ryan should have been taken out much earlier...he is a liability on offense. His D was good but he had no business being in the game at that point...very weak play and he can't shoot to save his life.

We beat the press ok but no reason to make dumb mistakes or rush things once you get past half court. Lost our composure like we did against Lou.

So we did not handle the total press well regardless. It tempted us to rush things. Had they not gone to it we would not have turned the ball over. Regardless, we are 0-4 when playing pressing teams. Next year we should do better. We''ll see against Arkansas.

i know coaching 101 says you have to rest Nic, but no doubt there was more minutes given to Nick and Ryan then there needed to be.

Nic Moore was playing when Manual failed to execute on the break. Moore did a great job breaking the press. Nick Russell also had a key turnover in that sequence
