The amazingness is that Holmes registered not one, but TWO assists in the game. Amazing!<br /><br />This single game represents 4% of his 4-year career assist total and is just one shy of his career high (3) which he accomplished in his second career game.<br /><br />Excellent work Mr. Holmes. We salute you. If there was a college-basketball-reference.com where you could sponsor player pages, I'd have snapped you up along ago to go in the trophy case along with the Mo Sanford baseball reference page (formerly scott stahoviak).WWWWWWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13029975451902509241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-57124599582589874122009-12-30T14:34:03.408-06:002009-12-30T14:34:03.408-06:00NOTE: He doesn't owe you an apology.NOTE: He doesn't owe you an apology.WWWWWWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13029975451902509241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-88862943239699071892009-12-30T12:40:20.232-06:002009-12-30T12:40:20.232-06:00If the Clem scandal is still weighing you down I d...If the Clem scandal is still weighing you down I don't know what to tell you.

Both teams shot the ball well, we had an effective press when we used it, and made most of our free throws down the stretch. For me an ugly win is one where both teams shoot 35% percent and the home team wins 52-50. This was D1 ball as it should be, talented players making open shots and trying hard.<br /><br />I agree with you on substitutions with a couple caveats. First, the second played great in the first half when they came in after the first TV timeout. That kind of subbing makes sense when you're going to use a full court press after most of your made shots (Nolen looked absolutely gassed at the end of the first half). Second, Cobbs looked much better at point than Devoe did last night. Joseph seems to stagnate the offense, holding the ball too much on the perimeter. He's a gifted scorer for sure, but he needs to either not play point and then if he is the two guard look for his shot way more.<br /><br />Finally, I booed Clem last night. Holier than thou? I never ran a D-1 program into the ground via an academic fraud scandal of biblical proportions. The 2000s were essentially a lost decade for Gopher hoops because of Clem. No Clem, no Monson, no Molinari, no Mitch Onstead, no Ryan Wildenborg, no Kyle Sanden, no...you get the picture. He set off a butterfly effect of damaging basketball that will take decades to purge from the collective memory of the Barn faithful. <br /><br />Don't forget Mr. Haskins got paid very handsomely on his way out the door.Kevin Logenoreply@blogger.com
