And as long as students are on campus then getting butts in the seats shouldn’t be hard. To get 4K per game barring weather shouldn’t be hard. And 4K is under selling imo. The problem is priority seating. Call the ticket office and let them break it down for you and then you’ll realize why attendance so far is trash.

mikescherrer8 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Let’s get back on topic, did anyone catch the Harvard game last night? Bit of an ugly offensive performance from Harvard. I gotta say, UB has an opportunity to come away with a win tomorrow if they don’t beat themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harvard did not shoot well from 2PT% - (45% - 14/31). In addition Harvard had 20 turnovers. I did look at the box for Northeastern and Maine and Harvard did shoot better in those two games and took better care of the ball. UB definitely has a shot at winning, but they need to play better than they did against Dartmouth. One interesting thing from the box - very few personal fouls (both teams combined for 25) / free throws (both teams combined for 13 attempts) in the game.

While our at-large chances are extremely remote, the game means more to just getting our feet back underneath us after last Friday. It will also build confidence in the fan base. I've heard from many locals who are already off the bandwagon after last week. It's disappointing and unjust to the current team. This would help put some positive back in that fan base. No matter what the fans say, the team could really use a well-played victory. It will be interesting to see how the game plays out. It will be interesting to see what kind of attendance the game draws. I'm going to guess it will be on the low end, both for UB fans and in general. I'll weigh the pros (decades long fan) and cons of attending (cost of tickets, uncomfortable general admission seating, terrible parking and even worse traffic control by inept campus public safety personnel) once the conference portion of the season is close. Meanwhile, I will attend every women's home game, as I have done through both the lean and the rich years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the guess on number of UB fans there? Probably a few, but I wouldn’t imagine there will be tons. Not a marquee matchup. If we beat Harvard, I’ll be very surprised. Injuries or not, this is a senior-laden class and they got a good coach. if we are going to win, we will need a big game from an unlikely player—in addition to Jordan, Graves, and Segu playing lights out. We miss Perkins most of all, even though CJ was the better player by a bit. We just don’t have a reliable, get a bucket down low guy yet. Hopefully one emerges this year. Next year we should have players who will have bulked up and can play against big D-1 guys in the post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloppy game so far Considering all the 2nd chance points harvard has and the poor shooting percentage by ub if they can clean it up thus becomes a very winnable game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promotherobot Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 It's getting obvious hiring Whitesell was a mistake. Totally undisciplined team. If they were going to hire from within FLJ world have been better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been 1.5 division 1 games thus far A lot of the undisciplined actions have been from freshman or sophomores, they'll learn. Besides Johnson who has tried to do too much hero ball and whitesell seemed to have sat him for stretch that half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BasketBull Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 It’s easy to look good when you’re hitting shots, but since about 8 minutes to go in the first half the defense and ball movement has been much improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ubbulls84 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Very nice win. Segu had a coming out party this game wow extremely impressed. I think we’re gonna see him and Jordan on the court a lot at the same time. Even got the Harvard guy Aiken frustrated and committed a flagrant foul. Johnson finally started to hit his shots, hopefully we see that every game. With the exception of Gabe Grant who just looked kinda lost out there, everyone else played well. Impressive win, just gotta work on being better on the boards and clean that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BasketBull Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Segu should be getting 30 minutes a night - he’s going to be a star in the MAC. Williams still taking too many 3 pointers but I think he’s developing nicely. Great to see Johnson break out of his early season shooting slump.
