That's Why You Foul

[Clone5]

I have no doubt we would have won if we would have fouled before McLemore's 3 point shot. I do not understand why more coaches don't do this, especially with somebody like him on the court. Great effort (pre OT) from our guys tonight.

Jeebus fing Fries WHY DIDN'T they F*ING FOUL!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to ask, even if we didn't want to foul, why in the **** did we have guys standing BEHIND the screeners? Did we give a flying **** if they drove for a two point basket with 2 seconds left in the game?!?!?!?

 

[cyfan964]

I foul within 10 seconds every single time. No question. Good effort regardless. I don't think any of us expected this game to be that close.

We were lost on defense and didn't identify McLemore at any point during the possession. You're right.

Totally agree. Even if that doesn't go in, I still feel that way. It's too risky, especially on the road. Nobody else would have made that shot either, can't let him shoot it.

 

[isucubs]

Agree 100 percent... Makes ZERO sense not to. I feel coaches don't do this because its unconventional... If you are afraid of them rising up and shooting do it while they are near half court..... Not mad at Fred. Great game plan but next time we are in that situation I better see some of the hardest fouls of the game

 

[cyclone101]

As soon as he made it you knew we would't win in OT. I agree always foul in that situation. Anyway, see you on Feb. 25th KU. You have it coming.

 

[Clonedogg]

That was a wasted opportunity.

This loss is absolutely on Fred and the staff. You just have to foul there...you don't even give them the chance to go into OT, especially at Phog.

 

[Clone9]

Yep, gotta foul.

Guys played their guts out, Fred lost the game. Bad decision especially on the road.

Would have been nice for Lucious not to miss the front end of the first one and one with about 20 seconds to go as well. . .

 

[RayShimley]

Great effort by the team. Can't blame them for running out of gas in OT after the effort they put out and without Niang. I doubt CFH will make that mistake again.

Unbelievable I just don't understand. I haven't been this devasted since Hampton.

**** happens. He made 2 right after that which should've sealed the game.

 

[stevefrench]

that's the thing with hindsight, you're always right.

 

[cowmaster1]

That is why you make your free throws... When you miss the front end of a 1 and 1 you miss two free throws.

 

[isuno1fan]

Good effort by our guys...can't complain. Too easy to 2nd guess right now. Just gotta let it go and move on to the next one.
