Yep! 17-33 at his JC for 51.5% on 1 attempt a game from three. Shot 61% from the field. 78% from the free throw line. Coaching took all confidence out of him looking to shoot from the very beginning with how short of a leash he had. Missed a shot and immediately got taken out.

What I see every home game Sather is turning around and telling each player to check in. I’ve seen Stevens suggest subs sometimes but Sather does the subs

Such poor execution down the stretch. By the coaches. By the players. By everybody. So sad

Where are the coaches telling them to drive it and get an easy 2?? Instead we get a 20 dribble step back contested 3

We didn’t need a 3 there!!!!

We need to score points and Norman is on the bench….

Sather does….

Starting lineup but put Norman in for Danielson

Eaglestaff and Omot need to take over this game

At this point I’d rather have Daniel Hong be the backup PG than Grant. He brings absolutely nothing. Hong is MONEY in warmups! Maybe would actually look at the rim!

Don’t get it! Why don’t they go to a 5 out offense and space the floor??

He’s better off the bench. Plays with a different energy

To be fair he has played solid since starting. Nothing great but not bad either

Hoping for big games from Eaglestaff and Omot again. Need a similar if not bigger performance than what they did against USD. Love when those two are ultra aggressive and looking for their own shots!

Nothing against Norman, but I just watched his Midco feature and in it he said that no other schools wanted him. That only UND was recruiting him. Seems like there are a lot of guys on our roster this year and in years past under Sather that had similar situations. How many guys on our roster had 0 other D1 offers or even D1 interest before coming here??

Troy Huff. It's sad that we can go from that level of talent to what we have now...

You're right on that! Kraft is listed as a PG. I guess I have always viewed him as more of a SG. Or at least that is the position I could see him playing more of in college

I absolutely agree that his ceiling is high and is probably higher than any of our guards other than Eaglestaff. He will go to a better team than UND once he's done in HS

Two of those players aren't PG's... Mason Klabo is the only PG listed

You are severely underestimating the physicality and speed of college basketball and how much of an adjustment it is. If you put him in a live college basketball game right now it wouldn't be close. A 15/16 year old vs 20 something grown men that have years of college basketball experience.....

Trent, Brooks, Norman, Danielson. All better guards at the college level right now. If we're talking right now. He's only a sophomore in HS and at 6'1" 160 pounds he would have a hard time competing with the physicality and speed of the D1 level. That's if we are talking right now like the question states. But if we're talking when he's done with HS and going to be a freshman in college he will be better than the guards we have at the moment.

It always is! It also solves a lot of issues!

I will add though, from experience, that this usually does not lead to team success or wins. Hence UND's record and being 0-4 in conference play. You can't keep doing the same thing (constantly switching who plays when/how much) and expect different results. At some point you have to just play the top 8 best players and figure it out from there. It can't get any worse than it is now!

People thought the last couple games were must win games. What does that make the next two?? I would think extremely must win. Only team in the league without a conference win. Against the other bottom two teams in the league. I've said this all year long, UND has the players to be a middle of the pack Summit league team this season. Hopefully we can start to see those players skills put to use for a couple wins!

That's correct. They don't always work. But at least you tried, instead of just sitting in the chair with your face in your hands shaking your head because it is all the players fault that the other team is on a run. Just like Sather did in the SDSU game.....
