I'm kinda shocked that Renaldo hasn't played at all, in the past 3 games.......He was started before that, after all......
Does anyone know if Coach Pearl is mad at him for something?? I think Stephen is a good passer usually, and makes some hustle plays, but really got crushed in the post tonight........So, where's Renaldo?? And if you're not sure, please don't rip the kid.......

Oh, nothing, just jacking up pointless three after pointless three in practice instead of in games.

He played some in the first half. He wasn't in long, the time he was in he didn't do anything really.

He played tonight. In his minute on the floor, Tyus drilled one in his grill and he dropped a pass for a UF breakaway. CBP, quickly gave him the hook.

Bruce Pearl said that he's not fully prepared offensively. He tends to make careless mistakes such as routes and cuts on offensive set plays. And that he needs to work on his ball handling skills.

On the damn bench where he belongs. What a complete bust and waste of a scholly. But he can damn sure make a rap video about it. Im sure thats what he's thinkin about game after game of not rebounding and air-ballin' shot after shot after shot after shot.

McBee didnt help Renaldo. When McBee got into trouble he threw a turn around bullet pass from 1 foot away which was a turnover.

Have you ever seen Woolridge hold his own down low?? Pearl plays way better defense than Woolridge...Woolridge is just taller..But he gets handled down low too..
Woolridge is a better shooter but after the 0-20 he has been I am starting to wonder??

The turnover wasn't Woolridge's fault, Mcbee didn't really give him much of a chance with the pass. I hope Woolridge is able to get some confidence here in the near future, I kind of feel bad for him at the moment. I still think he should be getting some time, it's pretty much a wash right now with Pearl.

that's too bad for him.......I really was hoping he'd have a great year after he drilled those 3's against Kansas......great genetics and athletic ability......I hope he gets his act together soon.....

I blame McBee for that turnover, not Woolridge. I know that Pearl plays better D than Woolridge or at least tries harder, but Woolridge is taller and can do better in the post and get rebounds..but all around terrible 2nd half. We have to beat Arkansas and Miss.St, no question

Total waste of a post.

He'll develop, but until then- Don't hate.

Woolridge is softer than Hopson. At least Hopson shows flashes of ability and intensity. McBee and Woolridge need to be on the other side of Josh Bone in the bench sitting order.

It appears to me that when Swipersuck is on the floor he is clueless and completely lost about what is going on around him. I think he decline in play time is directly attributable to his changed mindset of "trying not to make a mistake". When you are trying not to make a mistake, more often than not, you make one. It appears Swiper has fallen into this role of just another body on the floor instead of trying to make himself a scoring threat. I think he has some talent (he has to given modern genetics) but he has to decided that he CAN play and not just run around trying not to make a mistake and inevitably being a liability when he is on the court.

When every mistake might get you benched or produce a public complaint from your coach, the mindset is inevitable. You can only kick a dog so long before it either bites you or curls its tail.

I suspect he is getting the sit your but on the bench till you can go out there and do what you are capable of treatment from his coach. Long over due in his case...He will be back he comes from good stock....Hopson got a little of this treatment last night and responded with a pretty good game.
