Outside of the ft's being a little off --a pt or two more per half would have made it a bit more comfortable-- things went well considering the five +1 depth.

Oh yeah...I love the flex offense and the discipline the players have to get the shot they want. They also run the high ball screen (or no ball screen) for Cotton to do his thing.
The only negative (to be picky) that I saw today was the team was slow to get back in transition and Xavier scored numerous times because of that.
I watched St. John's play Seton Hall the other night and for all the talent on those teams they really lack effective point guard play.
That brings me to the BIG POINT: I just can't believe how good Bryce Cotton is. He has just willed himself into learning to play the point effectively and still gets his shot when he has to.
He really is AMAZING.
I just wish this team could somehow make the NCAA for him.

This is it he first year where I have seen the flex be so effective. It looks like a very frustrating offense to play against.
Best half court offense I can remember since Gomes' junior year.

The students no longer sit behind the basket. They are elevated now. An awful showing, still, but you don't see them now that they are sitting in a different area.

I am guessing the students. But there used to be empty seats behind them on awful showing games.
It's a pathetic section. Just saying that the few that do come sit behind the seats on the floor.

See my tweet 5 minutes into the game.. Students were an absolute no show for todays game. An absolute insult to the long standing Friar fans and no appreciation of the achievements of Stacom, Hassett ans Lis and what they have done to make PC as well known of a school that is..

Ok, so we have a plan in place. Semantics I guess, but Cooley is working a plan/system..We may not see his system until he has every player he recruits actually suit up and play substantial minutes..

Terrible move to have the halftime celebration at a noon game.

Think that's all we have with the students in session on the weekends....although eff the students at this point...
I think we're seeing it on offense...guessing he'd love to push tempo on d if he had the horses...
Gary Williams is pretty good...

students aren't even worth discussing at this point. fill the seats with real fans and move on.
