Re: Boston University 2010-11 part II - The Hunt For Red November
Where to begin...(I purposefully have not read any write-ups yet, want to give my uninfluenced impressions)
- save for the 1994 pasting at the hands of LSSU, I can't recall a "good" BU team looking so inept. It honestly seemed as though either a) 4 years of player development were taken away from every player on the team or b) the whole team had been drugged. Just terrible decisions, inability to catch a pass much less make one, players falling down for no apparent reason (I swear Escobedo fell on his butt four times by his own doing). To call it frustrating would be a major understatement. It almost got to the point that rather than be upset at the team, I was feeling sorry for them.
- Joe Pereira should be in the stands tonight. I am sick of players taking penalties in the first minute or two of a game. Then he took at least two more, and they always seemed to be right as BU was gaining momentum. That is inexcusable for the captain, and he needs to take a seat for a night to think about it. And his goal doesn't sway me. Sahir's stick was two inches behind his and would have put that goal in if Joe hadn't.
- I think if Parker had a JV team to pick from, that is the team we would se tonight. He'd sit everyone.
- The team misses Connolly, Do they ever.
- Needless to say, BC looked awesome (well, other than Muse).
- What a wasted opportunity- that arena was hopping iike I haven't seen in some time. At least until the puck dropped. I told Scarlet before the game that I hoped there were some recruits on hand. I withdraw that statement.
- I'd say the Escobedo cough up was a good summary of the whole night. You expect to see that kind of play from Mites and Squirts, not from D-1 college players.
- It's been a few games since I have seen this team play. Coyle didn't seem to have much mojo tonight.
