Bad loss. Blew a great chance to be ranked. Hopefully this doesn't screw the BE too much.

I think cooley will let them know losing to BC was unacceptable. I hope they listen and take it to heart and come out and go hard after URI . while not overlooking Brown of course.
Dunn needs to protect ball more and we need someone else to step in whe Henton is being shut down

Didn't see the game but the stats said that Dunn had only 3 turnovers in 31 minutes of action. 2 were in the last 4 minutes of the game- but the game was pretty much over by that point. Frankly a bigger concern to me would be free throw shooting(now for the season a pretty dismal 15-27) Was at least a 69% shooter 2 years ago and 3-3 last year in the 4 games. You need your point guard to be able to make those pressure packed free throws last 5 minutes of a close game(which you know you are going to have a lot of this year).

Also have to remember with Dunn- he's shaking off a lot of dust. Played all of 11 games in the last 21 months total.

good points. i expect Dunn only improve as year goes on. my hope is that the BC loss will be the wakeup call. i just hope PC wasnt looking past BC as an easy win. My impression is Cooley has these kids grounded and that they have bought into the system. that needs to continue
i guess i have to root for BC the rest of the year now to improve the rpi of PC! :lol:
