Stokes, Brown, Iwandu, Wade, and Johnson the rest of the way. Edwards needs a wake-up call, so that maybe he can focus and improve from the 3-point line...has been awful from there.
Weber needs to get in Hurt's jock strap with some red-hot until he starts playing like a guy his size should play. He needs to get tough underneath rebounding and stay away from the 3-point line until he has the balls to battle underneath on offense. He had a couple minutes (far too few) when he did this both on offense AND defense, so he IS capable of playing to his size and being WAY more aggressive. I hadn't seen that at all until today. But it needs to happen 20-25 minutes a game instead of 2 minutes.
With these changes, I am convinced we could be a reasonably good team the rest of the way. Certainly not as good as OU, but good enough to make the tournament. With one of those last 2 scholarships, we REALLY need a good, strong big man for next year.
