This. I do not understand why he has Maggie taking the ball out so often. She’s flirted with 5 sec SO many times this year already.That finish almost bit us in the butt. They were fouling us as we called that late timeout. Why call a timeout when our in-bounding of the ball this year has been atrocious.
Very nice win, but why didn’t Bill have one of his experienced players throw the ball in. Maggie has struggled all year making inbound passes. Great defense by AD
So I went back and watched that 5 second. It was five swishes from the refs arm but they were fast and Bill was asking for a timeout next to the other ref.
It was one swish then a change in angle. I counted that as one and then there was 4 more with the last one being the 5 call.Impossible to tell when the ref handed us the ball because the camera work didn't show that. But I tried to time it several times with a stop watch and came up with about exactly five seconds on average. So may or may not have been a bad call.
Mack going down was very unfortunate for OSU. But as Sherri Coale says, "Sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're the bug."When Mack went down and OSU lost a 20 pt 11 rb and 6 blocks a game player I thought we might win by double figures but OSU was pretty scrappy on defense which statistically hasn't been their jam in league play so far. They had good defense stats overall (but NC wimp schedules can be misleading at times) and showed it at times today so we were able to beat a team with a defensive pulse which was good.

Have you watched our out of bounds plays?? Our players never run hard anywhere. They jog. They never sprint to an open space, ever. They do not go HARD off of screens. Its pretty darn hard to pass it to someone when all they do is amble around. And, they need to grab the ball with two hands!! Geez.
