       If I had a guys in the league that I like team, Dell'Orso's on
       it. Off the top of my head, I'd put Carlos (Hofstra), Dubar
       (Hofstra), Moore (Drexel) and Shell (UNC A&T) are on there too.
       Yeah, I know, we're small, but I just like them. Dell'Orso's
       just really good and has a good frame, and if he can improve his
       shooting, I wonder if he'll get G League attention, although
       Europe or his native Australia are probably the more likely
       route. He's this rangy guard who can beat you off the dribble,
       finish with both hands, knock down the jumper, and even post up,
       which you don't see a lot of. I thought his assist totals would
       be better given how often he has the ball in his hands. He's
       really smooth though – always under control. He had 29 in their
       big win against Hofstra, which like in our case, came on a
       Saturday with just one full day to prepare.
       Their core guys can all handle the ball and they shoot it
       exceptionally well, and even though they're undersized as a
       whole, they're still looking to get it inside. Even at just 6-6,
       a lot of times that's Dell'Orso going to work. It's rare,
       though, that you encounter two trees like we have here, whether
       it's one-on-one or coming over to help, so I wonder if that
       continues. The matchups will be interesting to watch. Campbell's
       happy to go with the five above for long stretches, so again,
       who do the bigs guard, and who guards the bigs? The answer's
       probably Vaistaras, who has some width to him, but is still
       giving up size.
       Walsh is a kid whose numbers don't look like anything special,
       but he has ramped it up of late in the scoring column, and they
       need him. He had four first-half threes to help Campbell stay
       close to UNCW in a game they ultimately lost by three.
       I like what we've done recently on the offensive glass, and this
       is a team that can be beat up down low too. To combat the lack
       of size, they'll play a lot of zone, which has yielded one of
       the highest three-point attempt percentage in the country.
       Nearly 45 percent of their opponents' shots come from three, and
       I'll say that their zone is a less straightforward than the 2-3
       we blistered yesterday. The zone has created pathways for
       unmarked players on the offensive glass – inordinately so, with
       Campbell giving up an average of 10-plus offensive boards per
       game. Yep – Snoddy time. What a nice get he's been.
       I thought that our rebounding numbers were better than they've
       been, but we also faced the heft in the conference early in the
       season. Elon, against which we were plus-11, was flimsy
       underneath. I see Campbell the same way too. We've been better
       from three, and there will undoubtedly be opportunities against
       the zone, but I'd like to see us maintain a balance and take
       advantage of our advantage inside. We can't lose sight of it. I
       think the balance has been pretty good, and I've been mostly
       pleased with the looks we're getting. Noll in particular has
       been a pleasant surprise from deep in CAA play as it seems like
       he's the guy we've been able to skip it to for a lightly
       contested or uncontested three.
       Looking at TSM's spot on the all-time scoring list, I'm curious
       why Steve Hayn went from being an 19 point guy in his first year
       to just 11 in his last one. And it's too bad he never came back
       here to coach, yet is on Pikiell's staff now.
       As for how this one goes, I think we're too big and physical
       down low. If anything, a team of their stature should want to
       speed up the game against a bigger team like us, but they've
       been content to run through their Princeton style sets. I don't
       think this is a game where TSM marks Dell'Orso but that would be
       fun to watch. Who knows; we'll see. We're in a good spot right
       now.

       23-3 run for Campbell. This one could get out of hand early.

       Might need to go small in the 2nd half. They have too many guys
       in that 6’3-6’6 range.

       That missed TSM alley-oop leading to the Campbell buzzer beater
       just encapsulates how the final 10 minutes have gone. That was a
       4-point swing right there.

       The missed alley oop into campbell going 94 feet to lay it in at
       the buzzer was crazy

       This is a game we were leading by 10 points with 12:55 left.

       Campbell finished the half on a 34-11 run in the final 11
       minutes.

       We needed to get it down to like a 10 point deficit at this
       point in the game instead of letting the deficit balloon to 20.
       This is just ugly. Campbell is picking us apart everywhere.

       This is going to be a 20+ point loss to a team in the KenPom
       300s.

       Is this the worst game on both ends of the ball we’ve seen Tyler
       play? One game after one of his bests.
