Thoughts: How will we respond after the shit show at Rhode Island?

They are young! No seniors play any important minutes. 3 freshman have started at times this year. 7 guys average between 6.3 and 11.2 points per game. We will need to concentrate on Roberts Blums, who leads them in scoring despite playing only 20 minutes a night coming off the bench. Their leading rebounder averages 4 boards per game. I think it’s pretty safe to say they do things by committee and any success they have comes from the entire team.

They started the season 7-1 and are 5-5 since.

They can shoot from 3 averaging over 9 makes per game with 4 guys shooting over 40% from deep. Interestingly, they are not great from the foul line.

Discuss.

I'd be ok if we started a third 9 game winning streak with this one. Nine wins and then a road loss has been the trend this year.

White? I have Green, Black, and Gold Shirts that I have worn and some Grey sweatshirts with a small Green and Gold emblem. But I haven't any gear that one would consider fitting for a White Out game. Whose idea was this?
