Drumgoole on fire tonight. Can't remember the last time we had a player conver two 4-point plays in the same game. If he can consistently prove to be a real 3-point threat that should free up some room for DBJ. Would be massive for the start of A10 play.

Really settled down to end the half. Went on a 20-5 run in the final 7:30 of the half.
Defense has looked pretty solid as well. Let's put them away early in the 2nd and get some bench players in (please).

Offense looks horrible. No one is hitting anything, so many lazy turnovers, and too hesitant in the paint.

Happy to get the W and very happy to see Trey Moss have a good game. Came away very impressed with Christian Jones off the bench as well. Team shot almost 40% from three which is fantastic, hope we can keep that up (or something close to it).
I was somewhat baffled as to how bad our rebounding seemed to be. On more than one occasion we seemed to watch the ball instead of chasing it leading to an easy Army offensive board. Something to be concerned about once we hit conference play.
Also, any idea as to what was going on with DBJ tonight? He ended up with 12 points but he seemed somewhat out of it. Didn't drive to the basket as much, left a handful of layups short, most of his 3s were way off (this is more normal), and just seemed to have less energy than he normally does. Hope he isn't hurt/sick.

Duquense loses at home to 6-5 Maine. Max Edwards finishes 4 points, 1 rebound, 2 TOs. Not sure how many minutes he played.

From David Korn:
"GW has now lost 21-straight road non-con games since Dec. 7, 2016 against Temple."
A very real possibility it takes us a decade to win a non-conference road game

DBJ came into the night shooting almost 75% from the FT line. Under 50% for this game which will end up being the difference (obviously not the only reason but a major factor).
Hard to win games when you shoot ~50% from the FT line as a team and 0% from 3. Not sure it's even possible.

Always foul up 3...

Autry and Drumgoole very clutch down the stretch. Not sure there's much more Autry can do to prove he should be starting.
GW Men's Hoops » GW BEATS Illinois St Game Thread » 11/25/2024 4:12 pm |
Trey Moss shooting 5 threes in this game is not a recipe for success. Time to have him come off the bench and start Autry.

Well, not sure if it's any indiciation of how either team's season will end up during A10 play, but Duquense just lost to Hampton by 5 (I belive they were 6.5 point favorites). We beat them 28

Made more 3s than 2s....would have never bet on that.
For those who were able to watch the game, anything in particular stand out besides the good 3 point and FT shooting?

I'd like to see Jones start over Moss moving forward. Also curious to see what a lineup of Jacoi-Jones-DBJ-Hansen-Castro would look like and if they'd actually get Hansen more looks from 3 in that set-up.

Nice to see some fight in the team. Not backing down or giving up. Criticisms in the 1st half were well deserved but some praise is definitely in order for this half.
GW Men's Hoops » GW vs Kansas State Game » 11/22/2024 9:00 pm |
Not sure that half could have gone any worse. A team that can't shoot 3s taking 50% of their shots from there. Getting outrebounded by 14. They are who we thought they were (minus Garrett)
GW Men's Hoops » GW vs Kansas State Game » 11/22/2024 8:33 pm |
There are only 3 guys (maybe 4) on this team who should be allowed to take 3s at this point and all three of them take less than Drumgoole and Moss who are shooting ~20% a piece. Those guys need to stop taking them even if they're open. They aren't falling and I'm not convinced they will at this point.
GW Men's Hoops » GW vs Kansas State Game » 11/22/2024 8:12 pm |
1-6 to start the game...not ideal. Not sure Trey is taking 3s when he's had such a hard time making them this year.
GW Men's Hoops » Other Games Thread 2024/25 » 11/19/2024 9:23 pm |
Duquesne is still winless on the year after losing at home to Milwaukee. Max Edwards finishes with 3 points on 1-4 shooting.
GW Men's Hoops » GW Beats NJIT Game » 11/18/2024 9:49 pm |
Was getting slightly concerned when NJIT stuck with us but was very relieved to see us pull away at the end of the 1st half and later in the 2nd.
DBJ again had a very nice game and had multiple calls not go his way which clearly frustrated him and Caputo (as they should). Castro with another nice game though I was surprised to see him miss 4 FTs as he's been very good from the line so far. Christian Jones looked good again as well and seems to be a promising young player. Big shoutout to Trey Autry as that may have been the most complete offensive game he's had (minus the 2 missed FTs in a row). He was aggressive on the floor, made two threes, and seemed very confident. If he could give us a real 3-point threat off the bench that would be massive.
I know Drumgoole is supposed to be a good shooter and proved that last season, but he's started the year 6/28 from 3. I think that's a large enough sample size to know that something isn't right with his shot. Many of his misses have come from wide open 3s as well. If he can't get those shots to fall we'll be in trouble against better teams. May need to have him not take so many.
All in all, I'll take a 20-point win any day and look forward to our first real test against KSU.

Our old friend Lincoln Ball and the American Eagles are hanging tough with UNC at the Dean Dome. Currently down 5 with under 6 minutes to play.
