Just back from KSU game. Can't believe the lack of effort/energy in the first half. Clear advantage in the paint, but we did very little to get the ball to the rim. On defense, they were sleepwalking. Angel was getting beat off the dribble repeatedly. Will can't play and BW stayed with him way too long. Gipson was asleep the entire game.
If they bring the same defensive intensity to the first half that was there in the second, it would have been a double digit game. Angel was awful in the first, and awful throughout on offense. However, he shut down Galloway in the second, which just illustrated how little effort was given in the first half. Game was lost in the first half, despite the frustrations at the end of the game.
Bruce was terrible....just terrible. Team wasn't ready to play, no adjustments in the first half, way too many minutes for Sprad, no execution at the very end, and not using a TO for a last shot. I get that sometimes your best shot is the scramble at the end, but that's assuming your PG has made a FG during the game.
Really loved this senior class; good dudes who gave their all for KSU. Hate that Rodney's last shot was a 3 that was all but in that would have iced it.
