Pickard for Pack Part of being a good coach is to have your recruits improve. Sitting on the bench with a team 5-12 in conference play is not inspiring at all. Rowan has the shooting ability but could have used another year in high school. He is not consistent and primarily plays well only at home. Kirk left his man because of the way State plays defense. They would be better off with everyone staying with their own man and forgetting about helping out in the middle. Why do you think the reason we give up so many open three’s… Read more »
You are something special…well delusional. Kirk left his man open 3 times while he was in for his 3 min. You focus on the one easy shot to win game, but leave off the 2 big 3’s Rowan hit! At this point in the losing season could Kirk get a few more minutes? Sure wouldn’t hurt. But for Freeman not Rowan! To complain about how bad you think Rowan is as a freshman is ridiculous! He’s one of the best freshman we’ve had in years….and should never be out for Kirk.
Pickard for Pack Rowan averages 33.4 minutes a game vs. 3.5 for Kirk. Rowan shoots .354 percent. That is the worst of all players with more than 3.6 minutes a game. Given Kirk the same chance at playing, he may have been able to hit some big shots. We will never know, because he probably will transfer. Maybe he will transfer to Kentucky to play with BAM BAM?
Pickard for Pack My grandmother could have made that shot after pushing the defender away. You, probably not.
