« on: November 20, 2023, 11:13:09 AM »To be fair, Lake Erie is D2 and they only lost to Utah Tech by 12 on Saturday, but the nonetheless that should have easily been a 30-40 point victory.
A lot better energy the 2nd half, but this team needs to learn how to play a 40-minute game. They really were bailed out the last 2 games by bench players in Bates on Friday & Lovelace on Sunday.
Not really sure what to think about this team after 5 games. Looks like Burns is a pretty consistent player and hopefully can be a force all season. Need more out of Rush as he just can't get going. Take out his 32-point game that he basically played the entire game against NAIA Ohio Christian and he's averaging under 9 a game. Some other guys are going to have to step up.
Coach Calhoun really seems frustrated. He said if he was going to rebuild he would have taken a job elsewhere so you have to go out and get seniors. Tough stretch coming up with Dayton, CSU, RMU & Ohio.
Thanks for correction. Was thinking they were D3. But still, 30-40 win is right but only losing to UT Tech puts into interesting perspective too. The games you mentioned against Dayton, CSU, RMU & Ohio will be very telling of what this team will be.
