I have never seen a 6th grader shoot that bad from the line!4-14 from the foul line is like an average 6th grader.
Lose by two and can’t even get the f’n ball in bounds for a shot at the end. Horrible. Waiting for the Chambers followers to explain away another loss. Be lucky to win 6 or 7 games in conference.
His recruiting isn’t all that great either. Carr and Stevens...outside of that his recruits are average to below average. If his recruiting was as great as some posters make it out to be, he wouldn’t lose so many games.Chambers needs to go......or hire an assistant to handle ALL the game prep and plays as he is an absolute joke! He can recruit some players, but coaching them up and putting them in position to succeed and draw up plays he is ABYSMAL!
After the TO that was the play with 2 sec. can't even get a shot up.
Who do we have in two years? Can’t build a team around a bunch of little guys. Lose Stevens and Watkins and there’s not much left. And I can’t imagine recruiting is going to pick up with a .500 season this year.To be honest, hard to really expect much this year after Carr left. We should be better in two years when the next classes are established and playing. Hopefully even good next year if Stevens stays. Nice to at least get the NIT banner last year though, shows we probably should have made the NCAA!
This is obvious. He has shown that some talented players will come to Penn State. It’s not the basketball wasteland that many paint it to be. Get a young, ambitious coach who can recruit and knows X’s and O’s and they could build something here.Chambers has been a failure. His teams are sloppy and undisciplined. He is not the future of PSU basketball. It's time for Sandy to get a clue. He's had ample time to right this ship.
Maybe not great recruits, but better than the previous few coaches were able to bring in...if he could develop them at all and run an actual offense PSU would have a made a few tourney's over the last several years.His recruiting isn’t all that great either. Carr and Stevens...outside of that his recruits are average to below average. If his recruiting was as great as some posters make it out to be, he wouldn’t lose so many games.
I sure hope the new coach can shoot free throws better than Chambers. He sure did miss a lot of them today. With a new coach shooting free throws we win this game easily.
People need to lower their expectations for 2019. The B1G is gonna be tough but if they can go .500 in league play maybe they have an outside shot at something in the post season. Next year should be nice and the year after really special
If you think this is just about missing a bunch of of FT you dont know what you are watchingI sure hope the new coach can shoot free throws better than Chambers. He sure did miss a lot of them today. With a new coach shooting free throws we win this game easily.
No I'm not deflecting. Sometimes the players have to take their share of the blame. The coach doesn't shoot free throws. Make even a mediocre percentage and they win easily. The game plan was fine. They tried going inside much more this game and drew a good number of fouls. The plan that helps draw the fouls, that's on the coach. Making the foul shots, that's on the players.You're deflecting blame. As a B10 HC, you are responsible for the product on the court. If we lose due to a single player missing 1-2 foul shots st the end, no blame on Chambers. The team shot terribly from FT line. The team makes so many errors on the court, they are unwatchable at times.

It’s always something...if it’s not foul shooting, it’s turnovers or missed shots or too many fouls. That’s the problem. And what game plan is fine that doesn’t include Watkins the whole second half? At some point, the losses have to fall on the game plan and the coach. If they lose one or two games because of falling short in one area, then I agree it’s in the players. But this is always something in almost every game.No I'm not deflecting. Sometimes the players have to take their share of the blame. The coach doesn't shoot free throws.

So when the team shoots 80% from the free throw line I'll expect to see you here proclaiming how great the coach is. Sorry, not buying it.When the entire team is missing foul shots, that's a coaching issue, not player issue. Get a clue.
They won’t even sniff .500 in league play.People need to lower their expectations for 2019. The B1G is gonna be tough but if they can go .500 in league play maybe they have an outside shot at something in the post season. Next year should be nice and the year after really special
15 or 16 wins won’t get them in the NIT.A BAD loss AT HOME to a MEDIOCRE Indy team. PSU is gonna be an underdog in 4 of 5 early January games.
At this pace they may not even be given the opportunity to defend their NIT title.

This loss will not hurt us come March. It's still early. This team is young and will get better as the season progresses. Just wait until Watkins is at full strength. CLIMB. WITH. US.
So kids in year 5 should be able to shoot free throws better than kids in year 1. Sorry but I think that's ridiculous.In year 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or maybe even 5 you'd be right. We're past the point of blaming the kids for Chambers inability to coach. It's fine though, wait another decade and Chambers will have us within 5 years of making the NCAAs
