Shocked that the announcers, and maybe few here, did not notice we had all 5 freshman in together, and it wasn't horrible !

When you have played a half and only one of the starters has scored - Gardiner - that is a problem. It may be time to change the starting lineup.

The slow starts are because we continue to start games 4 on 5. Mannen is not and will never be a Pac-12 player. Everyone sees it but Rueck I think this is an example of the coaching bubble, in which they really exist in their own little world and see things from that perspective. Fans are usually all over the map as far as opinions and just general knowledge, but once in a while they hit on something that a coach might be overlooking, glossing over or just plain wrong about. I think the "Mannen needs to play a lot of minutes" is Rueck's coaching bubble issue.

I don't think they're particularly exhausted. Just can't match Colorado's team speed. I'm not talking about acute exhaustion but an aggregate emotional exhaustion. It feels like there is a complete lack of connection between players and staff. Completely out of sync. Very astute. Absolutely right.

Id start AJ she's tall fast and she is a streak shooter. That is better than not having no shooters at all

After awhile you can only laugh. Its almost like rueck is playing a certain player just to piss people off.

let the reader understand: /s = sarcasm sorry hoopheritic , I don't know the codes (/s = sarcasm). All I do know is that when Martha entered the game, Martha immediately broke down the defense and dished to multiple teammates who finally had enough time to set their feet and get a clean shot. Martha is the only member of this team who can play against this type of perimeter pressure. Rueck better start Martha at PG in 2nd half. Umm, no. Yeaney.

Rueck starts the second half with the brilliant move of Mannen at the point going up against Sherrod.

I do like that he's getting more playing time for Blacklock and Hansford. Really paying off for Blacklock especially.

Its interesting watching Colorado pressure us and when we are on defense we step back, step back until the dribbler is in the key or alone at the three point line.

I don't understand the reason rueck got an extension a year ago. In the last six years the team has gone from 3rd twice, to 5th twice. To 8th last year to likely 10th or 11th this year, was Barnes being lazy?

Not sure what you are basing this on. You said Colorado's perimeter pressure. Yeaney is easily quicker than Martha and is a good ballhandler. She's most likely the second-fastest/quickest player on the court after Sherrod. Yeaney just broke Colorado's pressure with ease a minute ago.

Our 4 non-frosh guards a collective 2-17, 3 Of whom are scoreless. Just brutal ability to do the most important thing in basketball.
