We have no go-to guy in the offense. A three point shooter as your scoring leader is a horrible design.

Shaka's got a great deal going on at VCU and it would be difficult to get him. Amaker would be interesting

I'm afraid Turner would hire Rob Evans

One kid who can slash on the whole team, and that's Manuel. He get's fouled and can't shoot FTs.

We have a shot doctor on our bench and yet this has been a problem all season. Boggles my mind

For the first time in a long time, I'm pessimistic about the ability of our basketball program to be anything more than what we are today (or once we are in the BE, what DePaul is)

Fair enough, I'll open a thread over the next day or two because I'm actually curious to know :)

If you are not diehard or not related to a player, why would you return to another game after seeing this?

DePaul will get better under coach Purnell. Jury is out on this SMU team. Appears we are going to be up and down this season. Can only hope they come together and reach their potential at season's end (in time for tourney)
