Not sure why Tre Clark didn't play more - he's a good defender and thought he'd see more action on Magee. Gurley had a bad shooting night and Mounce had some nice drives early, but they didn't fall in. Just too many second chance opportunities for Wofford - sometimes the balls fall your way - nothing you can do about that.

Mounce and Gurley need to get involved early - there is a lot of potential scoring there that I think is underutilized. I love Lyons, but he is very hot/cold..would be great to get more consistency out of him.

Wofford is definitely beatable - not sure I'd take the odds of them beating us 3 times in one season. Gotta go all the way.

Yep. Regardless of how the seeding ends up, I think FU will need to beat WC either in the semis or final. I'd prefer the semis so that confidence is sky high going into the championship.

One game at a time. Take care of Samford and UTC.

That’s 2 games.

After 16:24 left in the game these are the baskets made by Paladins other than Matt Rafferty:

12:47-2 pointer by Jordan Lyons to make it 46-49

2:36-3 pointer by Mounce

1:47-3 pointer by Mounce

0:05-uncontested dunk by Gurley

Ten points by everybody other than Rafferty the last 16:24 of the game. Including 13:48 where Paladins not named Rafferty scored 2 points. No wonder we lost. Those are ugly stats.

True we have potential and “on any given night” can beat anyone but one thing we have lacked this year is consistency-where everybody shows up to score every night.

I wonder if Andrew Taylor would have made a difference this year? Wonder if he is interested in coming back to Furman?
Not sure if you are serious about Taylor but that ship has long since sailed. He is now at Marshall.
No I completely missed that he not only is at Marshall but practicing with them.

I had heard he was homesick and wanted to go back to Corbin to be with his girlfriend. Makes me think now that it might have been academics.
