Yeah that blows my mind. Maybe Akron couldn't afford chairs for them to sit in?

That foul on Hornbeak looked questionable at best.

Give them credit. They sound pretty good.

2 on Hornbeak early. Not the recipe.

All we're doing is chucking threes and it's not the guys we want taking threes. Akron's defense is dictating what our offense will do right now.

Yeah. I think it’s time for Jacobs and Payton to be the front court offense.

Defense looks good so far.

I mean... While Jacobs was touching his elbow Freeman was moving while screening him.

Come on guys... There was absolutely as much contact on that layup attempt by Hornbeak as foul #2 on Hornbeak. 2 fouls on a very hands on defense from Akron this far in?

#1 needs to develop his skills.

Especially whoever the female is, she just doesn’t shut up and her stories are dumb. Their player wouldn’t dive to draw a foul because he came from Chicago…shut up!!!

How many air balls we gonna see tonight?

That was a bad half. I'm surprised we're within 5. We're playing hard. We are not playing well. Carry's dribble looks extremely shaky.

Depth will now be an issue. Depth and defense!

Connor….Onion?

Oh boy

The first two possessions summed up how badly we're getting worked. They leave Jacobs open for a three, miss. That was by design. We leave Castenada open. Not by design.

And how the hell are these announcers confused about what happened? There was an obvious flop but they waited for the dead ball.

Omg someone explain to these announcers that they aren't going to stop action for a flop. They are always going to o wait for the dead ball. Come on zoom announcers. CBB IQ please.

This is not going very well now down 40-30. I have a bad feeling about this one.

Also the injury sucks.

Lack of 3pt shooting killing us!

Some of these fouls being called with little to no contact and/or impact on the play are being called on us, yet we get hammered and no whistle.

Yup, 5-19 beyond the arc when you’re not getting to the charity stripe either isn’t going to get it done.

They've evened it out a bit in the second half. But we're just getting worked on both ends by Akron. They are getting good offensive looks while they're forcing us into either tough looks or open looks from the guys they want shooting the ball. They're just beating us badly on both ends.
