Wigginton

Honestly, I was fine with it. We need him to play well offensively. Give me a guy like him that tries to find a way out of a slump over someone who misses a few shots and is afraid to shoot.
I'm not sure why everyone wants Lard to start....
He looks very comfortable off the bench and see to embrace the role. Also, he brings that much needed energy off the bench. I'm going too default to the coaches on managing Lard.

He's fine. There was an adjustment period in the non conference schedule for him, and now he's going through another adjustment period as the competition is ramping up again. I hope he stays aggressive and plays through his mistakes.
I think he's forcing to much. Multiple times last night he got himself into trouble when he should have passed it to Donovan in the corner for a 3.
I am shocked Beverly averaged 16 ppg on a D1 basketball team
Yeah how bad was the team Beverly was on that allowed him to average that many a game
I wasn't crazy enough to think Wigginton wouldn't struggle in a game or two.
He's young and adjusting to Big 12 play. Obviously will 'wow' you in many games, but is going to struggle at times too.

Stop, he wasn’t trying to outdo anyone.
Both he and Jackson dribble too much and take tough shots. Wigginton is a freshman and more capable of making of them so it’s not that bad, but he needs to develop the skill of using his abilities to create for teammates. Jackson, on the other hand, needs to exclusively shoot 3Ps and only dribble to pass.
Lard needs to play as much as possible, which typically means starting
I'm ready for next year already. Injuries are really killing us right now. Probably for the better none of the Euro streams would work for me last night. Screw tv and their forced packages.
Fine, but JB shouldn't be starting. If not Lard, start Brase when he gets healthy. At least he is a threat to score from outside which will open up the lane more for NWB and Lindell.
I like Jeff, he works his butt off out there. But he just doesn't give us much. Similar to Holden last year, he had his chance early but should (and will imo) see his minutes get cut drastically.
This year is what it is and Wigginton taking some lumps this year is only going to make him a better player for the 2018/2019 season.
It was good to see Jackson getting back to knocking down 3's last night but man, the ball sticks when it hits his hands. He needs to let Babb and Wigginton handle the ball and embrace the shooter role.

Lindell's block last night was the stuff of legend.
He had some good shots too and if those fall ISU probably wins despite the fundamental issues.
That was kinda an issue with Clyburn I remember. He didn’t score a single point in the Iowa and Tech losses that year because he missed a few shots early in those games and became passive. Lindell is too talented to not let him find his stroke when he’s on a cold run.
When I re-tell the story to my grandchildren, Lindell will have hit his head on a rafter on the way down.
Probably because Beverly wants to keep jacking up misdirected 3's all the time.........
