Based on the last 5 galves against the Moubtain West it looks like the Jays would really struggle in that conference.

Yuck. Why don’t we show up against these teams?

we're still scoring at a high rate 1.3 PPP now. Need to play better D


And look how much effort we are expending to get looks. They are running us off the 3-point line and our backcourt is struggling to dribble past the elbow. Something needs to give one way or another.

Trey has got to get it together fast.

I mean he is just getting killed out there.

The way Mountain West Point guards are killing us it could be a really rough year in conference play. We can’t guard them at all.

I don't want to hear anyone say we don't miss Art or R2. For all their weaknesses, they are sorely missed from a offensive creation and slashing standpoint.

And he is still unable to make more than an occasional shot on the other end.

We better get another guard or wing in the portal that can create and slash to the basket. Outside of Johnson, the guys we have coming in as well as some of our recent targets don't seem to fit the bill. Just more skilled shooters, which we will have a glut of next season.

This team needs a Damien Jefferson-type player like nobody's business.

Tell me if you’ve heard this one before: teams are shooting a really high percentage against UNLV this year. Creighton couldn’t make a shot if nobody else was in the room. Mountain West basketball.

We’re a 6 seed at best. Really pathetic defense
