Scruggs channeling his inner Q. Take care of the ball and stop settling for 3’s.

Once again X not prepared. Did the coaches and players go over the scouting report? They press and have shooters. We are going to get rolled in BE cause we can’t handle pressure.

End the first half with no play and the Naji isolation. How about a timeout running a play? A teaching moment.

Three seconds, up 3, 3.4 seconds, and X doesn't foul. Boy can Steele recruit.

Steele strikes again!

If not for 4 inches, X would have gone into double O.T. You can't make this stuff up.

Not to mention press in bounds to the corner and that incredibly stupid/worthless hedging, and I’d say X has truly found a coach!

I didn't realize you could win a game with 25 turnovers. LOL. That's a head scratcher. Onward.

That was a hot steamy mess. Couple quick takes:
- We are not that good, but hat's off to the EKU Coach. Had his team well prepared and energized.
- We are not that good, maybe we can develop & improve.
- We are not that good, if we do not improve on many levels, going to get our ass handed to us in BE.
- As others have noted, unless we develop some quality post depth, Jason & Free are going to get worn down every single close game.
- Our B-Ball IQ, ( a reflection of the Coach), is challenged at best.
- That display was both enlightening and foreboding......

Thank you all for allowing my cathartic moment

Preparation and execution two very different things. EKU has a good gambling press. It kept them in the game but they lost because the press also resulted in some easy baskets for us.
