Hmmm...... Interesting stuff happens when you have your team start attacking the hoop instead playin' hot potato hand off 25 feet from the hoop or waiting for cutters to get open as the shot clock runs out.
Which seemed to happen way to often in the Big East vs. the" hack you away from the ball" ploy being used by less talented squads like Providence, St. Johns and Seton Hall.
Especially with the putrid referring by these veteran Big East refs. Who seemed like they never read the "freedom of movement" initiatives put in place by the NCAA a few years back. Broken down refs like Anderson last night are still as bad as ever, but big shout out to Tristen Newton who seems to be taking it on his own lately to gain real estate towards the hoop and create offense. More Newton and way less Jackson on the offensive end should be the formula from here on out. Still can't believe DH loves AJ so much he let'm miss 7 shots in a row to start vs. Xavier, B4 yankin' him, which cost a 3 point loss, SMH ! Better late than never.
PS. Also props to Nahiem Alleyne who finally showed some of what he was brought here for from
Va Tech, on both sides of the ball.
