McNeese State stole our logo, let's kick their asses Saturday.

Trying to steal Steamboat and place it underneath the Michigan "M" is an unforgivable offense. They deserve a beat down.
 
Good link to their logos. I knew we had lawyered up and took Steamboat back. The balls on those guys to steal Steamboat and the Michigan M and combine them into one logo still amazes me.

They ran with Steamboat from 1990 to the early 2000's.

We still owe them a beat down for that.
 
A better reason for a beat down is to show their AD what a well coached team looks like!

When I lived in Houston I wore my Brown and Gold to work on Fridays. Encountered some McNeese alumni who were still sore that Wyoming sued them over the logo! :lol:
 
Just a little more history: The last meeting between these two teams was Pearl Harbor Day, 1989. Wyoming won 76-50 and McNeese had a new logo the next year. Coincidence? I think not.
 
Hopefully we find some offense in the second half. We can't make a single three, and we've missed almost every single free throw. Ugly half
 
McNeese plays a real physical game, not caring about fouls, and as long as Wyo keeps sucking at the free throw line, it's a pretty good strategy. It sure has taken Wyo out of their rhythm.
 
Maldonado being the only half decent ball handler on the entire roster is really hurting against the on-ball pressure and physicality of Mcneese.
 
Ike needs to learn to pass a lot better out of the post. He also needs to learn not to force it up everytime.

He tries to shoot it every time downlow instead of passing it back out and reposting his man. It is costing us possessions.

I like Ike taking it to his left, every time low post. When out higher, he does kick out.
 
Mcneese bailed Wyoming out by being a dumb team that takes bad shots. I would argue Wyoming won by 20 because Mcneese was bad in the second half rather than Wyoming being good. The first few minutes of the second half were great though. Linder makes great adjustments throughout games.

The good news is Linder saw some glaring weaknesses with this team today. Arizona is going to be an ugly loss if everyone stands around the perimeter watching Ike try to shoot over a 7'1" guy that is a significantly better athlete than Bacon. I'm excited to see how this team measures up because they generally play good defense and winning basketball which could make it into a competitive game. I still expect to lose by 15 especially if today's team shows up at Arizona.

Noah Reynolds looked good in his minutes. The kid has some ball handling skills that this team needs. Using him instead of Dut was a great call from the coaching staff.
 
A win’s a win. We didn’t play well, but still won by 20. It’s nice!

I think things are getting stale on offense. Having maldo and Ike take turns in the post is not the always best. We were best when we moved the ball and got open looks. Both Ike and maldo need to realize when they are not likely to score in the post and pass the ball.

Agree that Reynolds needs to play more. I thought Wenzel had a nice game. Dut looks overmatched and slow

He forces it too much and loses possessions. He needs to learn how to pass it when the shot isn’t there. He has missed many shots by trying to force something not there. He will be a much better player when he does that.

If he tries that against Arizona he will get his lunch eaten.
