[NU Sports] hoops and walker

Rebounding practice will help - and maybe find out what Seacat ate/drank for breakfast or lunch Saturday and be sure he and everyone else gets the same before the Buckeyes game on Wednesday :-)

>From where I sat, on my couch watching on TV, it appeared that PSU was more
animated in their play than we were. They were going to get every rebound [they
had practiced that all week] and made us contest every shot.

I almost never saw an opening in the middle, I don't think Mo and Vedran ever
got losse inside, and Jenkins and Williams seemed to get stripped every time
they tried to drive in.

Doyle had a few plays inside but it seemed that once Craig Moore missed his 3rd
straight 3 from the corner, the game was sealed as a loss.

We didn't get any help from the refs either.

Maybe we need to run the same rebounding drills PSU did last week?
