he's soft.... tried to take over and forced a lot of shots. he actually made some very good passes in transition, the layups were just missed, but still too many turnovers and bad shots when other guys are open. |

That's impossible. Everyone keeps telling me that he is so much improved because he had a few good halfs of scoring towards the end of last year. So he is turning it over a ton against an NAIA school?...........what's going to happen when he goes up against actual D1 talent? I didn't see the game, but it sounds like his basketball IQ/decision making is no better than last year.................and that's not a good thing. I guess the only good thing is Crean took my advice and moved him from PG to a wing.......the fewer decisions you make VAG make, the better. |

If there was a turnover that resulted from Pritchard not being able to catch the ball.............then Pritchard gets credited with the turnover. Sounds like VAG is still dribbling/driving with his head down. You would think he might consider working on something like that in the offseason. |

I believe the line here is... Maybe you should watch the game instead of just assuming everything can be understood from a box score. Did I get that right? |

dribbling with his head down..... wonder if VAG3 ever dribbled straight off the court and by the time he looked up he was in the parking lot? |

He did have 5 turnovers. But I thought when he quit forcing stuff and just looked for his teammates, he played better. It looked like he wanted to take the game over by himself and just got into trouble, but learned as the game went on. He only had 2 or 3 turnovers where he tried to force the issue. He did make some really great passes and a couple more where Pritchard stop his cut and it went off Pritchard's finger tips. Those got charged to VJ3 but they should go to Pritchard. |

Absolutely, I didn't see the game so tell me, how many times did VAG pass the ball to someone who had nowhere to go with it? If he passes the ball to a guy in the corner with nowhere to go, and the guy turns it over, guess who gets credited with the turnover....................when in actuality, it is VAG's fault. This happened a lot last year. Daniel Moore would do the same thing when he drove it past the basket and threw a pass while going out of bounds...sometimes he threw it to someone who had nowhere to go with the ball which resulted in a turnover....but Moore doesn't officially get credit for the turnover, even though he caused it. I can't wait to watch this team, I can see some of the homers are already formulating opinions after 1 game against supposedly inferior talent. Hopefully they've improved, but from the sounds of it VAG is still the same old VAG. He will do his Ratliff impersonation and have a good half here and there which will make the homers believe that he is the 2nd coming of Cheaney. |

Yes, you will get homer posts but then again you will get constant criticism as well like this team should be in the top 10. It was the first PRESEASON game and you are already out to crucify the coach and the team. Get over it and root for the team. Yes, there were turnovers and as expected and if it continues into the season, then sit his ass on the pine but until the team has time to gel and work together against opposition instead of themselves at practice, quit throwing stones. It just baffles me, how so called fans can constantly critique a young team and never have good things to say, yet they still classify themselves as fans. |

I think it has been proven time and time again that Evil is a hater. UB likes to point out the obvious. Damn, a sophomore that has flaws? KICK HIM OFF THE TEAM!! |

No, I think what Evil is trying to say is that Crean fails for not having 13 5 star players on the roster. WASTED I SAY! WASTED! |
