Discussions about the "starters" for a college men's game is high-schooly. The ceremony of being named a starter is over about 4 minutes into the game when the matchups become recognizable.

Since there was conversation about lineups and about Chuck dominating the ball, I’ll throw this in here. In the Belmont game it appeared to me Chuck was making some effort to facilitate when the opportunity was there. He drove to the basket and then made a good pass to Haffner in the corner. On another occasion he drove into the lane and the announcer said he was way short with the shot (airball). I was pretty sure he was throwing it up for Hughes for a dunk but Hughes wasn’t ready for it. Just my observation but I saw this as some some growth in his game.

Bailey is a freshman and some take longer than others to adjust to the college game. This time last year he was in high school.

He needs to play w/ a team of SHOOTERS! Ragland's half-court style is like turning racehorses into trotters!

He needs to play w/ a team of SHOOTERS! Ragland's half-court style is like turning racehorses into trotters! In Lickliter’s last season we averaged 59.2 ppg. This season we are averaging 72.4. We are exactly right in the middle of the MVC in scoring. I’d like to see more ball movement at times but we are light years ahead of where we were. The defense is a much bigger issue.

Since when is it reasonable to use Lickliter as a model of comparison? Geesh. Frankly, I see alot of ex-ISU HC Greg Lansing in Ragland's X's & O's. Ask TH/ISU people today what they think of Lansing's impact upon the program..."Design the racetrack then go after the horses."

So far we are looking pretty good. Only problem is we are having some trouble keeping Myles Foster from posting too low and off the offensive boards.
