Kab Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I just want one of our players to take charge, not one on one but be able to shoot, drive, pass and get some excitement going on this team someone needs to be able to set omot and eaglestaff up for jumpers or dunks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows that all the guys like him but the head coach doesn't for some reason... We need to see a lineup of 1. Trent 2. Norman 3. Eaglestaff 4. Omot 5. TT for extended minutes and see what they can do. A lineup that can be a threat to score more than 20 points in a half against your in state rivals, at home, with the biggest crowd in 5 years... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kab Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I watched a few games in person and it seemed then that when Trent got the ball he was going to go one on one and the other 4 players just stood and watched. I thought something will be changing unless he learns to pass. After those games Trent has been in the dog house. He has the skills to be that versatile player, needs to prove it on game days.

Trent is the only legit PG on the team. He is a pass first point guard at that. Part of the reason why he posts up and backs his man down is 1. Because he can't shoot so they sag off him, but usually he has a mismatch with a smaller PG on him and 2. Because of the offense and spacing that Sather runs. There is no room for him to create off the dribble for others. The offense needs to be a 5 out spacing offense with tons of pick and pop with the occasional roll with TT and Trent. Eaglestaff and Omot creating off the kick outs from Trent. Norman spotting up and letting the 3 ball fly. They need to get out in transition and create easy buckets. Picking up the pace and tempo for UND would do them wonders!! The pass away and then double pin down for Brady Danielson offense that Sather is forcing them to run is just atrocious and not going to get it done at any level with the type of players that UND has. It is such easy fixes and changes that can be made to make this team competitive in the Summit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The results show? What are the results? Go look at stats. Shooting the ball around 60% and has the least turnovers on the team. (Which has been a problem) Not sure what the problem is about Danielson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kab Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Not sure why the hate on danielson hardest worker 0n the team, May not be flashy or athletic but seems to be in the right place when you need a rebound so many say we have nothing but d2 players but are worried if one of them transfers heres hoping coach has figured out an 8 or 9 player rotation for Thursday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt he is the hardest worker on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more. That is no personal knock on him. It is just a fact that he is a D2 level guy. And no one is worried about anybody leaving but 3 guys. Omot, Brooks, and Eaglestaff. Those are the only 3 guys that anybody is worried about keeping. If any of the other guys want to go find a new home, then be our guest! I'm sure there will be some D2's that will take them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only three that I would hate to lose are those three and I would add Trent. I really like his game despite him not being able to shoot the outside shot. I would actually miss Danielson's hustle, but he is a very good D2 player. But sometimes he is the heart and soul of our team and we need that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
