No more Brock please!

Wow, we bring him in cold off the bench for some 3 point shooting and he chucks up 2 ugly 3's. Please leave him on the bench at all costs, thank you! I can't remember the last time he's even hit a 3.

Not sure what Coach McD is thinking. He does a great job late in games with the offensive and defensive switches, except for Jacobsen. News flash: Jacobsen is not a Big 12-caliber shooter.

Hey, at least he hit the backboard on his second one!

Do we not have anyone that can shoot better than he can? Has he even made a basket in a game since exhibition season? He has no business being on the court.
I understand he can probably shoot well in practice or shoot arounds, but standing in the corner waiting for a pass so you can shoot your shot that takes 4 seconds to get off, it isnt helping.
The depth next year will be extremely welcome.

I agree!!! Brock would make a nice NAIA player, please keep him off the D-1 courts unless he wants to be a team manager or something.

I wouldnt want Brock on the floor at Wartburg.

Next year can't come soon enough!

I wish you guys could see Brock in practice. The dude is lights out. Too bad he can't carry it over during games.

Cyfan322 · 02-10-2007, 02:52 PM

We saw the same thing the past couple years with John Neal. He sits on the bench all game and then is expected to come in during crunch time to hit a big three. Give the kid a break.

I've heard that too. He probably gets nervous or something in games and loses focus.

We seem to have players with that problem (see also: kickers).

I don't doubt that. Seems like he definitely has some mental hurdles to overcome. Confidence is a powerful thing.

I went to the rec and did a three point shootout (5 shots at the 5 different spots) and made 15 out of 25 (60%) I was lights out then too. Put me on a Big 12 court in front of 10,000+ fans and I'd be lucky to hit 2. Brock is the same way, anybody is a shooter when you don't have a hand in your face. Is this kid on scholarship???

Neal played better defense than Brock.
