FU Alum.- that is an idiotic statement to make. My comments and Joe Stags were about our game against Tulane. We won by 12 points and the comments were how the team against them. When you shoot 54% or so from the floor, you should win the game and we did. Middleton showed a presence against Tulane. That doesn't mean he will against all opponents nor does it mean we will shoot 54% from the floor against everyone. I don't know how many games you attend, but if you went to the first 3 games and then to Iowa, you would have seen an improved team. What else do you want us to say? We told you what we saw. Your comments seem very critical and sarcastic. If you don't want to believe us, don't.

FU Alum,

I agree with Rave. If my recap sounded mostly positive, it should have been, because we played that good. If we did not miss a whole bunch of inside layups vs Iowa, we could have won this Tourney. I did list the following weaknesses below, the only thing I would add is that we still had trouble stopping talented Big Men, and that will remain so until Middleton continues to progress, but the Tulane game was a very big step for him.

- we still did not get a lot of inside baskets. We got to the inside vs Iowa, but were intimidated by a good defensive 6-11 Hansen, and Todd and Ogeslby just could not finish.

- (we) struggle at getting an inside rebound.

- Todd...... Struggled going to hoop vs Iowa, and then stuggled again in 1st half vs Tulane. IMO, Todd is stuggling with his role in the new open offense, some players need more time

- Oglesby..... has to control his turnovers

- Carter ...... He might not get the rebound but he battle's

- Herbie ..... IMO, Herbiew is similar to Todd and he struggling a bit to learn his role in the open offense.
