Lowery Interview on 1350
« on: April 09, 2012, 05:57:04 PM »
So this guy Lowery comes on and is like, "these guys are OK on defense, it's our job to get them easy buckets that they weren't getting last year."

Basically saying Frank couldn't coach offense, and oscar and Chris can.

Illinois had the 11th best offense in the Big 10, SIU had the 9th best in the Valley. These guys are awful.

Not wanting to be a oscar defender, but Frank couldn't really coach offense.

Frank's offensive efficiency was better than oscar's 4 out of 5 years.

Really? Touche, didn't check that. Of course if we're talking the last 5 years, the talent level wasn't at Illinois (Thanks to Weber). What's his average offensive efficiency in his 9 year tenure at Illinois?

Two questions: Is offensive efficiency measured on a possession by possession basis?  And does a possession start over when a team gets an offensive rebound?

someone who makes me uncomfortable and Seasoned Salt are perfect for our rough ridin' dipshit fanbase.  "look at that inbounds play!"  "now THAT'S an offense" "no backdoors this year". 

I want to be right more than I want the cats to win.

offensive efficiency is points per possession. the possession does not start over when there is an offensive rebound (or a foul). Possessions only end w/ a made basket, defensive rebound, or turnover.

This.

Teams did fear the physicality of Martin's Cats.  Mizzou is still dealing with the vaginal tearing due to the lack of lube.

Let me guess, you've voiced your displeasure far and wide on . . . goEMAW.com.

Regardless.  Frank had to defer to underwood's rough ridin' pinwheel.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

Your defense will never be good enough. Just be lucly that BAM will be doing the post game interviews because C-Lo(wn) will throw everyone from the starters to the towel boy under the bus, and instruct the bus driver to back up and run over them again. :runaway:

Illini fans are pretty one dimensional when it comes to their criticism of Weber etc. etc.   We're going to need some better effort because this is getting boring.

I'd say Frank threw his players under the bus a lot. He won though so nobody really cared except for some tucks. The new coaches can back that bus up as many times as they want as long as they win more often than not.

The difference is Frank didn't get fired for performance. I will excuse any and all questionable behavior if the end result is wins. Conversely, I will nitpick like the Dickens if we lose. I think it's my right.
