Beat the press, 3 on 2 and they back it out, crazy

IIRC after the review on the 3 or 2 pt basket the hawks were down 2 and OSU pressed. A pass to Jok just over halfcourt and a buckeye failed to steal it.

That left Jok with a 3 on 2 and he took a couple dribbles to the 3 pt line but he did not attack. He backed it out and the hawks had an empty possession.

This team is not being aggressive. I dont know if during the official review Fran diagrammed a play for them to run but hell, if they take a chance on a steal and miss it and you have a 3 on 2 then go to the hoop.

Not only are they not being aggressive, except Gesell today who most people on this forum wanted to throw under a bus and bench, but they seem to be mechanical and thinking too much.

Not very aggressive on the boards and not strong grabbing the ball.

Oh well. the hawks need help now but they can still get two big wins.
 
Im guessing Fran told them to hold the ball so they could run the patented run the clock down and get a terrible shot
