In response to rbg
Cornell hung in due to the slow pace of the game and neither team was able to score on a consistent basis in the first half. CU played good defense, had a few steals, and played hard during the first half. I know they wanted to slow the pace but watching both teams is like watching paint dry. CornelI passed up some good looks with about 8-10 seconds on the shot clock on several occasions and then ended up taking some poor shots as the clock expired. Jimmy Boeheim played well scoring 25 points but took some tough shots that had little chance of going in.
On a positive note, Jordan Jones played well and made some shots when CU really needed them. He looks to be a stand still jumper shooter, SU was daring CU to shoot, and to his credit, Jones did. With the exception of Jones, the CU guards did not do much to help. McBride, Knapp, and Noll played 59 combined minutes and had a combined total of 2 points, not going to win many like that. Overall, a respectable showing by Cornell.
