Did not listen to any of the post-game recap!
Compiled the conference "road" record for all teams having played thru 01/31/19 & the best & worst offensive & defensive teams:
Won-Loss record:
#14 - Tech (0-5)
#12T - MTSU (0-4)
#12T - UTEP (0-4)
#9T - Rice (1-3)
#9T - UTSA (1-3)
#9T - Charlotte (1-3)
#8 - USM (2-4)
#4T - FAU (2-3)
#4T - Marshall (2-3)
#4T - WKU (2-3)
#4T - UAB (2-3)
#3 - UNT (2-2)
#1T - FIU (3-2)
#1T - ODU (3-2)
Worse offensive scoring for road teams:
#14 - Charlotte (56.8 ppg)
#13 - Tech (57.9 ppg)
Best offensive scoring for road teams:
#1 - FIU (80.0)
#2 - UTSA (78.5)
Worse defensive scoring for road teams:
#14 - FIU (83.0 ppg)
#13 - UTSA (81.8 ppg)
Best defensive scoring for road teams:
#1 - WKU (62.8 ppg)
#2 - Tech (65.8 ppg)
Where is the blame for the inability to win on the road - head coach & staff, players, or a combo of both?
Personally, if this team does not perform well for the remainder of the season, I see a similar team for next season. Hopefully, the injury bug does not hit us as hard next season! Hopefully, the acquisition of Kalob LeDoux (guard), the two incoming freshmen (guards), and return of Derric Jean (guard) will provide better shooting and depth.
I don't understand why Tech went for two guards in the Class of 2019 with only one senior (D. Jean) on the team, and LeDoux was sitting out due to transfer. Had Jean not been injured, was LeDoux going to fill Jean's spot next season?
In the meantime, reckon I will remain optimistic and hope for a better outcome on Saturday!
