GBAU83 212 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 We have got to learn how to close out the close ones. Two games we should have won this week but can't close. SEC is going to be tough when we start going up against teams that are bigger in the middle. Pearls first year and the guys play with heart and hustle, but we ain't there yet.

FUZZYAUFAN 134 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 When is Mason expected to be back. The last two games might have been wins with another legit scorer on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTiger 12,796 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 When is Mason expected to be back. The last two games might have been wins with another legit scorer on the floor. The bigger question is when does Bowers return? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apraser99 168 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Bowers is soft and surely we have a better player than Canada. I know his story is heartwarming but how is he a D1 basketball player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUB78 1,354 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Well, that was disappointing.Didn't think we would lose at home to this team, but the lack of depth was telling. Hopefully when Mason gets back and Reed joins the team, AU can hang longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattarcara 0 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 We are missing two of our better players due to injury and we have a 7-1 defensive big man coming in. We are gonna get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigeremt 6,560 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Two games in 72 hours.......we lost our energy in the second half. It's pretty easy to see how we lost this one. Tired..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfernoOrangeSS 321 Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share Posted December 6, 2014 This is our foundation year. This is the season that our championship teams will build off of. Coach Pearl will have us in the promised land when he gets his players in. Enjoy the building of a powerhouse. War Eagle!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Lebo,, Barbee and now Pearl....and still we can't shoot foul shots. Had plenty of chances to win this game too. Guess it's modern basketball....where few players can hit a decent percent of their shots further than 5 feet from the basket. And as noted, some key guys still missing....need their points...and some depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,545 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 We are missing two of our better players due to injury and we have a 7-1 defensive big man coming in. We are gonna get better. His trial is scheduled for December 19th. If he's sentenced to jail time he won't be coming. There's a thread about that here in the BB forum.

douggwilliams 61 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Seriously, what has happen to Bowers? From double doubles in first 4 games to invisible. Its got to be mental. Everyone was talking about what a beast he was. Has CBP addressed this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was talking about what a beast he was. Has CBP addressed this? Bowers had foul trouble early on and seems he's gun shy about being tough close to the basket. Not near as aggressive in the past two games as previous....just my observation anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as noted, some key guys still missing....need their points...and some depth. we were hitting FT in the first games. CBP has said he is testing these guys via this schedule. They are tired and their legs are shot hence hosing up their shooting ... At least I hope that is what it is ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowrider 0 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I don't think these college kids are losing their legs 3 weeks into the season. Unless they came in completely out of shape. We just don't have an inside game at all when Bowers doesn't have a mismatch and trying to make a living from the perimeter is tough when you only have one real scorer from out there. If Mason is not hurt we win the last two games. Getting him back 100% is the only goal right now. We just don't have consistent scoring without him and the offense looks completely out of control. He is our best one on one shot creator. We should have won that game at home last night regardless but it didn't go that way. It's going to be a long season.

AU64 10,122 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Some interesting commentary on AUC about Bowers...might explain his disappearance the past couple games....and why he could be a future problem. Won't go any further than that...if you are interested just check the AUC site...most of the details and commentary about his tweets and snapchat videos are open to the public Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,545 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Can someone summon up enough courage to give a brief synopses of what's there? I see no benefit to all the hush-hush stuff. If it's public info, please make it public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,388 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 A profanity laced tirade directed primarily at football players that are questioning his manhood ...

mustache eagle 2,388 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 A profanity laced tirade on open social media (which of course was copied) directed primarily at football players (and the greater world) that are questioning his manhood ...
