Lard

[RagnarLothbrok]

When you need a beast to body up and not take any **** down in the post make sure you bring your own junkyard dog. We got ours.

I loved watching him not take anything from the crap Ohio State gave him. Twice, at minimum, he was hit with an elbow to the face and he still battled like a spartan in 300 taking names and kicking ass. I'm so glad for Cam to come full circle this season. For all the haters and doubters, Cam is a beast and can't wait to see more of him in the Cardinal and yellow.

That is all.

P.S. **** Ohio State

Cannot love this more. Lard is the man and is under utilized.

I agree with this. Lard battled. Jacobson disappeared. Surprising.

Lard was playing great at the end of last year with some monster high double double games. He is the the x factor for next year.

Lard 5, Jacobson 4. GC heavy minutes spelling them.

What a low effort thread title

He stepped in mightily tonight, behind the back pass aside. I wish we'd had him in more and fed him more, he was scoring easily inside.

We lost

I thought this thread was going to be about cooking in the 1950s.

Played great tonight. I really hope this is a boost for him to work his ass off this off-season. I hope these underclassmen get into the gym like shayok did to improve their games. I hope Prohm goes to some coaching clinics to use his players to their full abilities.

Lard is fat from a pig, in both its rendered and unrendered forms. It is a semi-soft white fat derived from fatty parts of the pig, with a high saturated fatty acid content and no trans fat. Rendering is by steaming, boiling, or dry heat

Lard did well today. Need him go the the 2nd session of the wellness camp to avoid the dog house. Also, needs to avoid the home run block every time, getting into foul trouble, and stopping with the fancy passes. That one game worked with the passes but that was it.

 

[Dingus]

Why we don’t get Lard the ball more on the low post is a mystery to me. He either scores or makes a good pass.

Cam has all the skills to be a great college player. Passing, blocking, touch, athleticism, all there. Just needs to keep his head straight.

Hard to make baskets when his head is crooked

He played great tonight, but deserved so much better for his efforts. I have no idea what the defensive player in his position can do anymore? He was standing his ground the best he could, but Wesson would put his shoulder or elbow right into his chest and knock him back. That should be a charge, but it's never called. So I guess you need to fall down, but if you do it's still only a 50-50 chance you get the call because the ref thinks you're flopping.

And if you fall down and don't get the call, it's a dunk for the other team. Lard did all you could. He tried to stay his ground when getting shouldered or elbowed to the chest as Wesson backed him down, but he just wasn't a match for him. So tell me, how do you stop that? It's a joke.

Complete BS when he (and Jacobson) are standing their ground like it is taught in Jr High and that's a foul because Wesson does this weird movement where he looks in pain backing up over the defender. Someone please tell me what conference these refs are from.

Lard played well tonight and did not get all of the "phantom-touch" fouls he normally does. Probably due to the physical play they allowed tonight.

I am hoping that Solo is developing his game this year. We know that he brings toughness and can help with the team "softness" issue. Young also helps Lard rebound better by taking up space and allowing Cam to use his athleticism. If Cam moves on, I think George can help fill that void.

I am also hoping the refs let Cam play a little more. Upperclassmen usually get better calls.

 

[CloneZone13]

Guards need to be better at getting Cam the ball off pick and roll. MJ, too. Coach needs to be better at telling guards to look for Cam on the pick and roll. MJ, too. All season they've been wide open. Frustrating.

To be honest I think we need just high basketball IQ. Cam is only 2nd to LW in athleticism. That behind the back pass works great when you're hot dogging up 20, but down and 6 minutes left, C'mon man.

Prohm takes a little too long to figure out who should play I feel. For instance tonight he wanted THT so bad to be hot, but in the Kansas game he was like NOPE, made the decision to bench him and we killed them. Prohm is still a great coach just I believe we can all improve.

Prohm is a great recruiter and an average coach at best. I am really interested in understanding his philosophy because I never hear about it. I truly think he would benefit greatly from having a former great head coach at his side like Fred did with Lutz.
