Also, aside from Grandison & Green (who have clearly separated themselves) and Niego's first half vs Michigan, the play from the "outstanding" Sophomore class has been pretty abysmal against the Top 100 teams. Players 3-6 in that class have yet to show that they can ramp things up when the talent, size, and athleticism of the opposition increases. You hit the nail on the head! They are sophomores playing against Top 100 competition. If they were as competitive or beating the Top 100 competition, they wouldn't be at HC.

Some interesting analysis--it's almost as if it's harder to beat the really good teams than the mediocre to poor ones.
Looking at Sagarin
LY: 12-19 versus the 278th most difficult schedule in D-1
TY: 4-3 versus the 93rd most difficult schedule.
Call me Pollyanna, but that looks like an improvement to me. Lots more basketball to be played, and anything can happen, but I remain optimistic

bbc, I am glad you do not buy the "fine and dandy" since I never saw anyone say that after a loss. Why put words into other people's mouths? I don't think any HC fan felt/feels good when the team loses, even to some good competition. Why do you seem to want folks to think they do?

Playing well...good assists (way up from last year), scoring dropped off a bit, still a force on blocks and forcing opponents to alter their games with his defense. Needs to shoot more.

Sorry if it has been discussed previously but what's up with Floyd so far ? Not a point of emphasis in the style Carmody is playing right now. Nothing on offense is run for him to get good shots in or near the paint. His best chance at that is to go 1-on-5 for an offensive rebound and put back.

What's up is that he has 20 blocks and an almost 6:1 assist/turnover ratio......the team is 4-3, but it's the end of the world.
Oh, and no one cares because we play in the PL, and should be in the Big East where we would draw thousands upon thousands to games....if I may borrow from hoops, play it again Sam
