LasVegasIrish Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 ND vs Colorado tonight at the Barclay's Center tonight. Play either Texas or Northwestern tomorrow depending on outcomes. First big test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Beachem is unreal! His size and shooting is damn rare. Take note football program at ND, the basketball program is showing you how it's done. Post season success and beating bigtime teams, love the program Brey is building here. When we hit the three we can beat anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Two straight elite 8's and we aren't ranked? This program has shown the consistency that we should get the benefit of the doubt. I don't like how they base it off recruiting so much when we have relied on winning with upperclassmen. We will prove the voters wrong again though. I like how there is no Grant or Jackson on this team as good as they were. These guy seem to play as a team, so many contributing parts playing certain roles.

irishrb Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 This team looks really good right now. They can definitely shoot the lights out. Will be an entertaining team to watch this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasVegasIrish Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Team has so much depth this year. 9 and maybe 10 guys later on during the season that can contribute. I wanna see some more Mooney and Burns, especially with Colson in foul trouble. Gotta get these guys some experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Farrell is the man!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Looks like Brey emphasized making free throws in the offseason. We nailed them all down the stretch, last year our free throw shooting probably would have lost us this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasVegasIrish Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Win tomorrow and we should be ranked going into next week! Great win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Looks like we get Northwestern tonight, beat Texas and their only loss is to Butler and that was only 2 points. Should be a great game. I think Torres is a major liability on offense, I think we should shorten his minutes for someone like Burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasVegasIrish Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Yep, at 6 pm eastern. Northwestern has been much better under Collins. It's my dads alma mater, so it will be fun to watch with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Matt Ryan might be the best 3 shooter Brey has had. I feel like we should play him more because he hits such a high percentage from 3, would make our offense so potent being able to hit the three any possession.

irishrb Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Nice win tonight by the Irish...Struggled in the second half with shooting and grabbing some boards, but managed to pull it out! 5-0! BTW Farrell is a freakin' baller this year! He really makes the team work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Nice win tonight by the Irish...Struggled in the second half with shooting and grabbing some boards, but managed to pull it out! 5-0! BTW Farrell is a freakin' baller this year! He really makes the team work! Farrell is legit! People underrated his athletic ability and I focus that on ND fans on other boards mainly. Just because he is white does not mean he is not quicker than 90% of players out there. If he was black he would be getting a ton of hype, I saw this same athlete in last years tourney. I knew he'd be great but he was just in a lesser role at the time. Beachem has not dominated like I have expected, he needs a little bit of the grit and toughness Farrell plays with. Give NW credit, they played unreal defense in the second half, not many teams can do that to ND. Reminded me alot of the Wisconsin game! ACC champs, 2 elite 8's back-to-back, and now Legends Classic Champs. Another accomplishment to add to Brey's and the basketball programs list.

BrianKellyWasNotTheMan Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 VJ and Bonz have both only played 1 bad game, but it was also against the best team we've played. Still, Burns needs to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donjuan Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 If that's a bad game for Bonz I can't wait for his good games. (Duke 30-point game circa 2016) VJ was face-guarded the entire game which limited his play. He's always been a better offensive player when teams play in front of him. He's going to need to learn how to rub his man off screens better and shoot quick shots coming off said screen. Team are simply going to repeat this defense against him. Great win though!
