Looked bad. Feel really bad for the kid, and his father who went into the locker room with him. He is the conference POY. Regardless, Temple's too good for La Tech.

Great run by Temple and a wild circus shot by Cummings to cut the Miami lead to 56-55 with 43.9 seconds left.

Temple the 4th worst shooting team in the country missed their final 20 3 point shots and lost by 3. Cummings who has hit 23% of his 3s on the year was 0-3 including 2 late. This happened to Temple repeatedly this season. If you got the personnel then the 3 point shot is nice-when you don't then there is no reason on earth to force it. Temple has a great PG. If Temple worked the ball around and shot 10% on those opportunities they win. If they shoot 40% they win going away. The 3 point shot in college basketball is overrated unless you have multiple guys that hit 38-48% or so of their threes. For 80% of college teams they are better served by taking only the uncontested 3 and instead move the ball around, drive to the basket and get the ball to your interior players-and get 3s the old fashioned way with a bucket and a foul
"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
