Demin needs better scoring options to complement his game

nova_coug_fan

This is why Hall shouldn't be in lineups with him

Hall shooting 38% from the field and 34% from 3 isn't complementing Egor? Huh

ldssdl

Hall needs the ball in his hands touch get those numbers. He's not a spot up

Blueto

9:54am

I agree Hall would be better off as the backup PG, but with shooting #s that bad

ldssdl

9:59am

Demin is 15/56 (27%) from the Ole Miss game and on. That's six games and the ones against any real opponent.

CSoul

You're right. Egor has played very poorly and needs to get better, quickly.

Stucoug83

I like Joe Klatt's take on targeting.

VenomFarmer

9:43am

No to fines, no to penalty boxes. 15 yards is sufficient

Indy Coug

9:44am

Agreed. Even in instances of actual targeting it rarely seems malicious

reddead

9:48am

The refs can't even get the call right half the time, so even less reason to eject the player

Indy Coug

9:49am

if you can't get the call right, maybe they should get rid of it altogether

2FarGone

9:51am

The targeting penalty has caused malicious hits to the head to dissappear.

VenomFarmer

9:54am

Fair, but it seems like penalties for roughing the passer and blindside blocks

reddead

9:59am

And your reasoning?

VenomFarmer

9:50am

My reasoning is that the foul doesn't merit that kind of reaction

I think it's a bit more than virtue signaling - the NCAA needs to show it's serious about

Skeptical Optimist

9:55am

RE: My reasoning is that the foul doesn't merit that kind of reaction

VenomFarmer

9:59am

I think 15 yards is sufficient in most cases, but the refs should have discretion to eject a player

Skeptical Optimist

9:53am

It's a personal foul and just like every personal foul, the first offense should be a 15 yard penalty...

Coug

9:54am

The ejection is for multiple unsportsmanlike personal fouls, not late hits or illegal hits

Indy Coug

9:56am

Intentionally using your head in an tackle should be viewed as unsportsmanlike

Coug

10:04am

Do you give refs special headgear to divine intent?

Indy Coug

10:05am

The noncall targeting call in the ASU/Texas game in my opinion should be a no call...

Coug

10:12am

I love the penalty box idea.

Seemed impossible for ASU to commit holding after Texas jumped on them early

You can't fix targeting until you fix football's fundamentals.
