    Xavier v. Villanova (January 10, 2017) Big East Game #4

    I agree, but it is usually the case that not every three is a great look. Sometimes, they just don't fall and the results are bad, as teams start clogging the lane challenging an opponent to make the outside shot that seems improbable after awhile.

    The early lead was fools gold, 20 of 28 1st half shots were 3's. Hope we never see that again.

    How frequently do you anticipate having these kind of bad dreams of yours?

    Ed will be too busy being drafted/developing as an NBA PG to start at X.

    Thought it's worth mentioning that Scruggs (in a similar fashion to Ed) is still learning how to play PG. He is a 2 playing the 1 now. PG feel is not why he is a highly touted recruit. If your expectations are that he is going to come in and run the team masterfully, you might want to change them. I'd say it's more likely Goodin is the PG day one.

    I'm convinced that will be the last time it ever happens. On a related note, I am also frequently disappointed.

    I'm frequently disappointed too... Personally, I believe we should have won 3 national titles by now and that we should win one this year. Did I mention that I tend to have what one might call abnormally high expectations for my sports teams.

    Okay coach Mack, let's crack that whip and "Win one for the Skip-per."


    EDIT: That last sentence sounded so much better in my head.

    Here's hoping 82 doesn't have the same dream again both this Saturday and next Monday.
