*** Official Southern Miss VS IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

Unable to watch but you’ve gotta be happy giving up 20 in a half, right? Looks like we’re shooting a decent rate but not much for points. Is USM slowing the tempo to snail’s pace?

Yeah and ISU playing good defense. Lots of shots with less than 5 seconds on the clock

Looking at the boxscore, MJ's not a factor. Is he not not on the floor much in the 1st half?

He’s rebounding. Which is what we need him to do.

 

[isualums]

MJ was not happy with Nixon twice when he failed to reverse the ball and then near the end of the half when MJ had his guy posted up way low and did not pass the ball inside.

 

[Sigmapolis]

Nixon just needs to not shoot unless it is a wide-open three or a layup.

Let Bolton and Tyrese be the ones to try and make something up.

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Also can’t watch. 8-2 OR in favor of USM. I’m guessing that was a big factor in them keeping the game close for much of the first half.

No, he’s just not providing much.

First 10 min could be summed up as we couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn, and kept getting lost on D. We were lucky they couldn’t hit shots.

 

[pulse]

He’s got 1 rebound.

Yeah but he’s kept some alive and is actually attempting more this game.

Nixon basically needs to be Jaycee Holloway then. Which is saying be a disciplined hell of a player.

Southern Miss with only 4 made 3s on the year...
It can always be worse folks

 

[Rabbuk]

Nixon basically needs to be Jaycee Holloway then. Which is saying be a disciplined hell of a player.

And just not shoot other than layups

God I hate Nixon.

Using a Roku on a 75" QLED. Is awesome. Have dedicated fiber optic however.

Yeah I have fiber coming it to my house. We often have 4 screens going no problem. I love it.

 

[FinalFourCy]

Does this team compare to the 2004-05 group?

Overwhelm the opponent playing downhill on both ends, accepting it’ll lead to some bad possessions, but avoid the inherent half-court shortcomings. I don’t think we want to be a halfcourt team against quality opponents

 

[xboxfever]

Prentiss Nixon should not play the minutes he does. He’s just not good.

 

[cyclonedave25]

Nixon should only be taking layups, no more jump shots.

 

[mynameisjonas]

I got to hand it to Nixon, not many people put up more beautiful bricks than he does. The king of bricks.

 

[isualums]

I just don't think coaches notice how bad nixon is playing. He is still in...

 

[NorthCyd]

God I hate Nixon.
