2011/12: Game 6 Stony Brook @ Eastern Illinois

Coming out of a close loss against Northwestern. Stony Brook
looks for its second DI win of the year. In my opinion, a very
winnable game.
Lets go Seawolves!

Eastern Illinois beat Maine last night in OT, but it shouldn't
have been that close. They were up 10 pts late, then basically
collapsed before their best player scored all 9 of their points
in OT. This is a difficult road game; should tell you a bit
more about your team....someone has to step up offensively, as
defense/rebounding is pretty certain. 3 point shooting % may
tell the story (for both teams).

Another loss. So far, the hype has been more than the success.
Dougher's FG% is hurting the team. He needs to put the ball in
the hands of someone who's shooting better.

That might be Rapier, Jackson, Bracey...all of whom are shooting
over 40%.

Lot more to the game than just fg %. Two of the guys u mention
have alarmingly high turnovers to minutes played numbers...which
might be one of the reasons the coaches who get paid to make
these decisions may be reluctant to just "put the ball in their
hands." Bracey in particular, who has some talent, is having
some early difficulty getting acclimated...but he will no doubt
improve as the season progresses. Collectively, the guards need
to shoot it better...Dougher is 36%, Hayes 29% and Rouse 36%.
But also keep in mind that everyone's fg% has been somewhat
impacted by tough road games at Indiana, Northwestern and EIU.
It will get better.

Astute observations and exactly what I had hoped to convey. A
low percentage is a problem, but is rarely the only one. In my
mind it's a confidence and chemistry issue. The more the team
works those factors out - either through lineup changes or time
in general - the better we'll be. Pikiell teams have always been
weak out of the gate, then improve. While that's not a great
quality, it does bode well for some exciting upcoming games.
