Players aren't good enough. Coach didn't coach them well enough. disagree. we have good players. Coach didn't put the pieces of the puzzle together properly...and in year 3, they are HIS pieces to put together. Correct. The coaching is abysmal and it goes beyond on the court. To lead a program you need wear many hats and he doesn't seem to wear any of them well.

Coach didn't put the pieces of the puzzle together properly...and in year 3, they are HIS pieces to put together. We don't have very good players. It is obvious. Ash doesn't coach them and talent is not good. He can't recruit and can't coach.

St Joes is a better team than us. Plain and simple. I said this weeks ago. All the people on this board that thought otherwise, are you still out there? I am glad the season is over. Was was a struggle to really be fully engaged this season.
Have a good off season explorer faithful!

Another year. Another A10 tournament we don't sniff the weekend. I'd settle for a Thursday game.

Clark is a good player in the right position. Beatty, Spencer, and Moore are all HIGH major transfers. Ray is as hard of a worker as anyone in the conference. Ash hasn't done anything with them. I didn't expect at top 3 conference finish. I also didn't expect this undisciplined disoriented shit show of a team. Just playing hard and disciplined would have gotten this squad to a middle of the pack performance this season.

Another season ending in huge disappointment. Have a safe off-season my fellow Explorer faithful. 72-66 Final.

Had a chance, could actually taste possible victory but fell apart in the 2nd half.
I don't care what the records might say. I think we should be crowned the worst team in the A10. Guys just not consistent enough, teasing flashes but ultimately we fizzle.

Haven't posted in a while, last couple of weeks haven't even been worth engaging in la salle basketball talk. this team has been that atrocious.
All year the coach has not figured out who his key players are. when it comes to the final crunch time he has our jv squad out there running one on one plays. This is what happens when you don't establish a rotation and key players to lean on.
Also if I were Clifton Moore I transfer the second the clock hit zero. How can a 6'10 center who can step out hit 3s and has long arms to block on defense not be significant playing time on this team ?

Disappointing but probably not an unexpected end to the season. Not being able to see games in person created a disconnect that I hope never happens again. I'm not sure how to evaluate our talent but with the wide open offense that most teams run today we have to develop some consistency in shooting the three. When we shot well we proved we could beat anybody in the conference and when we didn't we showed we could lose to anyone too. Not certain who will be back next year but whoever that is has to spend hours practicing the three.

The first team in Big 5 history w/o a single double-digit scorer. Great work

Howard was not outcoached by Lang, Howard just under coached! Second half bombs away, don't understand, Rush shots, failure to gusrd double tesm more consistently, playing point guard who was terrible for most of game, inexcusable loss!

So you think it is all bench coaching? I don't care were kids were ranked. Schools make mistakes all the time. Beatty, Spencer, Moore flat out stink. I don't know how anyone can argue that but if your opinion differs than we just agree to disagree. Kenny has potential but how long do I need to wait for him? I am willing to give Clark some slack for this year I like Brickus but he actually can be better and needs to be more aggressive. Ray is hard worker. I agree and that is great. However, like I said in another post he is like the 40th best player in the league. He would be fine on a team with more talent but he is not good enough to move us in this league without help. Too many ifs and not much we can rely on. Much less than many other teams in this league. There is a reason we are at the bottom. There is no way in hell there is enough talent in this program and the coach has not helped them either.

I lean in the direction of 88 but I think we could have been a .500 team. So that leaves coaching as the #1 culprit. Gents, I made up my mind with that loss at Fordham and it isn't going to change. Time for a break from La Salle. We have to see who the new president is. That's the first step for me. Have a nice Spring.
Don't forget to set your clocks back an hour before you go to bed on 3/13.

He made 0 (took 2) three pointers at Indiana and 9 at La Salle (took 28), converting 32% of them. The data doesn't back this up.

St. Joes took 17 more foul shots than we did, they made 15 more foul shots than we did. We lost by 6. Do the analytics on that. Get the ball to the fucking rim, win the game there or on the foul line. We have done that twice this season.

Glass half-full observation - with as cash-strapped as the school is right now, at least they don't have to spend extra money on hotel rooms in Richmond this week.
