    On offense: Pass the ball more, pass it quickly and make your free throws.

    On Defense: Full court pressure. You've supposedly got the bench to do it, so DO IT!!

    No excuses going forward.

    MT is 0-6 in conference play, but all their games are within 10 points. We CANNOT overlook them. This is a very important rebound game. HogDawg is absolutely correct about the full court pressure. It is our identity and we have to use it. Do that and cut the turnovers and we have a win. Hitting FT's is a whole different conversation, but that one is obvious.

    Dawgs cruising early 2nd half. MTSU is not very good. Well, CUSA is not very good.

    MTSU has creeped back into it...some. I would foul our lousy FT shooters. We can still lose this one.

    MT had a 13-0 run to pull within 3. Ledeux hit 2/4 FTs & Mo made 2 to seal the deal

    MT has no conference wins, but is always in the game. I was nervous about that, as we could have easily overlooked them. Almost every loss they have is close. Great job by the Dawgs!

    Going cold at the end of a game seems to have come a thing for us. Konkol needs to figure that out.

    He has said he doesn't want to panic but trust the system. I'm thinking we take our foot off the gas to score way too early in the 2nd period. I'm pretty sure against NTx we got around the 10 minute mark and started working to run the possession clock deep before pushing to score in the last 5 seconds. At least twice we didn't get the shot off in time. And if Bracey has the ball when time is short he's a sure thing to drive and take an out of control low percentage shot. It wouldn't be panicking to stay in the rhythm of the game longer than we are.

    It was an ugly ass finish. We had a 20pt lead on them and they got within 3. So frustrating to watch towards the end of the game.

    Last night we slowed things down and tried to milk the clock way to early. We weren't running plays. Our guys started to play against the clock and not against the team.

    I'm not surprised. So maybe running the possession clock isn't being conservative, maybe it's the form of panic we've adopted...and we don't even realize it.

    he has no comprehension of the kill shot; going for the jugular. He pulled the press off, which is the very thing that often creates easy shots. He traded it for walk it up half court, milk the clock stuff. 20 points later, the lead is cut to 3 in the last minute of the game...
