Thu 11/21 BE Game Thread (2 Games)

I'm at work so didnt get a chance to watch the game but I just looked at the box score. Whow, pathetic display. Josh Smith scored 9 points and only 6 rebounds.

We should not be losing to teams like Northeastern!

I think folks are focusing way too much on Josh Smith Think we played much better vs Wright State when he was out of the game. Get way too bogged down when he's out there.

The fact is that Smith has the potential to compete with Dough with BE Player of the Year and he is not living up to his expectations.

I would love to see the plus minus stats when he's in the game/when he's not in the game. I just know what I saw the other night vs Wright St- the team was much more effective when he's not out there. That's all I'm saying.

But doesn't that makes sense given he's played less than 10 competitive games with these guys.No one knew he would be available this soon either. If JT3 doesn't work him in (& out) now how will they ever start looking better with him on the court? The goal should be to have Smith be a big part of this team this year IMO not now but as soon as possible.

The question though is at what point does it become counter-productive? My point is that his style I don't know if that meshes with the rest of the team at all...

So he transferred to GU instead of all the other schools recruiting him just to ride the bench after 3, 4,5, 6 regular season games. You do know he has pro-potential, how many other hoyas do?

no. they already lost to Boston U and Stony Brook.

I don't know- but I just know what I saw the other game. We were almost dynamic with him out of the game. With him in the game, we weren't at all..

If JT3 sits Smith like you're saying how do you think that's going to help recruiting transfers or players in general going forward.

Easily the worst Big East loss of the year by a long shot.
