Dia is so soft, his flop actually hurt that Vegas kid

Dia's fade away angers me

You should probably remove the Doh from your user name.... I have a sneaking suspicion he won't be with us too much longer.

really like it when a 6'9 guy fades back and to the right to shoot a left handed shot.

One bright side. We have been to the line A LOT more and are 11-12. If we took away our points from the stripe, we would only have 26 Points.

Doh has a massive job trying to get this team together in time for conference play. Obviously, UNLV is going to make most teams look bad; however, most of those of us on this board are just looking for signs of anything that would make this program look like they are capable of doing anything correctly. Right now it is all a jumble and the prospects for the future are not bright with this chemistry of players and coaches.


That's one reason I really like the '10 class. They are all multi-skilled, can shoot, and play fairly smart. It's like they are cut from a different cloth. Unfortunately, the more I watch this team, I realize we need more then a 3 person class, which means a few kids need to hit the road. Vicious cycle


I will accept you positive outlook for the class of '10. Question is whether or not this coaching staff has the capability to properly use those talents and create a viable team. I opine that Doh is lacking those personal qualities to inspire, instill confidence, properly utilize/exploit available talent, command respect in his coaching decisions.....etc. for success. All of those UNC issues that caused him to lose the those players and cause him to be fired. Doh will be back next year so we will see if the class of "10 can break through and over come the obstacles. I personally think he is lacking those personal skills to overcome the myriad of issues.

Great to hear the Mustang Band at the game. They are the highlight of the game for me.
