PrintWake Forest Demon Deacons at Maryland Terrapins, Jan 11, 2012 7:00 PM EST
Game tips at 7:00 on CSN+ or ESPN3 - but El Tres viewers will be blacked out if it's on TV in their area. So check your local listings, as always. If you missed the preview, the blogger Q&A, or the gameday guide, well, they're linked right there.
Random, Baseless Prediction: Okay, perhaps it isn't really baseless, but it is sort-of random. Ashton Pankey seems to oscillate between really good and really bad performances, and given that he's been basically invisible in recent games, I'm basically randomly picking this as his bounce-back game. 10 points and 5 boards or so.
Prediction: This isn't going to be an easy game, but Maryland is probably the better team, even if only by thismuch. Add in home court advantage, and the Terrapins should have a bit of a cushion here. I'm guessing they'll come prepared - ACC home opener, after all - and keep things from being too worrisome. Terps able to push the pace, and win 71-65.
For today's guessing game, let's turn to the tortue du jour, Mychal Parker. This is a pretty tough assessment, given that I wouldn't be surprised if didn't see the floor, but the general consensus is that playing time is building. So, give me his combined total for points and boards, with minutes played as the tiebreaker.

2 ass, 2 steals, 2 blocks
It’s Mychal Parker….He had a pretty good game last time so IMO a bad game has to follow…

Oh I would too
and it’s better than some earlier games, but I still think he will regress after last game, maybe take and miss more shots or try to do too much…..he’s still learning

One of these days I'll get it right
And that day will be January 25th where John Auslander goes for 18. 15 points and 3 reverse slams in 7 minutes.
and it's not a guess either
i just happen to have one of these
Jake Layman+
Last game went for 41 pts 21 reb and 8 blocks. Thats a busy night no matter what league your in.
consistently so too
from another recent game as quoted in a MA article…
It was common during that quarter to see Jake Layman (33 points, 14 rebounds) on those breakaways. The University of Maryland-bound senior was all over Avon the entire game. The Panthers attempted some double and triple teaming early on but it was no use once all of KP began shooting on all cylinders.
A more athletic SIngler is cooking..
If this was 'The Price is Right'
you would have won.. congrats on your well thought out prediction!
I have Direct TV and they are offering a free week of the college basketball package
Channel 721 also has the game
People have to calm down
With the JALEN TABOR, I liked saying it to but if we say it to much its going to kill it, but if he commits here i will be saying all the time.

TOO MUCH AIR IN THE BALL
Lets get this verified.
On another totally might be related point; in the book “Personal Foul”, apparently Shaq would ‘persuade’ the officials to let air out of the balls so more of his shots would fall.

turge really wants them to give it to the bigs.. not sure if its just for passing for if he actually wants them to make a move every time

I’m okay with him getting to the line, but he never seems to go up strong. Might not have gotten it this time, but generally he really needs to be more aggressive with his takes to the hoop.

I was just about to say that
He’s having a hell of a game. 7 rebounds already. Ben’s RBP might be right, except more like 12 rebounds and 8 points
Substitutions
look really good. even if weiss is giving great minutes.. everyone is playing so everyone can play at a higher level when they are in.. Turge would love to have 10 guys to run in and out
Faust
Did he just complete a 3 point play? Must be in the twilight zone
I loved the leadership Mosely showed there
Pulling the team together after the foul. He’s been showing that a lot more the past few weeks.
Love the energy tonight.
After the tough loss Sunday, our guys seem to have come out with a lot of energy and focus. Love the attitude and body language.

Oh Jordan, why didn’t you stay another year?
Also, Maryland is still going to have some rough games this year. But next year, they’re going to make a lot of ACC teams look like Wake Forest tonight. I’m excited.
i was thinking the same thing
how awesome would this team be, and how much potential would they have with JW. but we’ve got to move on and look forward to years to come. i think layman and shaq will be freaking awesome, can’t underestimate them

biggest lead at any point of any game during the season probably
There was a 30 - 8 lead over Cornell in there at some point

I think the fact that they were able to maintain the lead is almost as impressive as their ability to build it.

I'm extremely happy with Turge
And he could be better than Dixon.
But this is what Jamie Dixon has done at Pitt since he got there:
2003–2004 Pittsburgh 31–5 13–3 1st NCAA Sweet Sixteen
2004–2005 Pittsburgh 20–9 10–6 5th NCAA 1st Round
2005–2006 Pittsburgh 25–8 10–6 T–4th NCAA 2nd Round
2006–2007 Pittsburgh 29–8 12–4 T–2nd NCAA Sweet Sixteen
2007–2008 Pittsburgh 27–10 10–8 7th NCAA 2nd Round
2008–2009 Pittsburgh 31–5 15–3 T–2nd NCAA Elite Eight
2009–2010 Pittsburgh 25–9 13–5 T–2nd NCAA 2nd Round
2010–2011 Pittsburgh 28–6 15–3 1st NCAA 3rd Round
Hasn’t taken them to that “Elite” level, but those eight years would stack up against every other coach in the country besides 7-8 guys.
His resumé is definitely fantastic, and he'd have been a fine choice
But this is a seriously concerning stretch.
Well Pitt also lost a lot of players
In my mind, they only returned one proven starter in Gibbs

Nah, I think he's still a really good coach
He probably should have taken this job had he known this was in the offing.

Good D in the 1st half
Wake certainly helped make us look better with all the misses, but they’ve really disrupted things a number of times. I hope this is a sign of more to come!

i didn't think we were looking good early on
but we built a pretty nice lead pretty quickly. and maintained it. we haven’t had too many terrible mistakes. pretty good defensively. i’m hoping this is us looking good and not just wake forest being bad
was about to mention that
this is not something i like. he doesn’t get the ball in a position to score much, and when he does he doesn’t take advantage. gotta work on that
and still up by 16.

Good passing, but...
He isn’t looking for his shot. Another lob to start the 2nd half to boost confidence?
Bench vs. Starters for the game
They’re winning 21-19 right now.
I'd still take 16 off the bench
pretty good balance for scoring.
Yeah, but Len hasn't really contributed much in that respect either
I’m looking for him to heat up in the 2nd half.
We look good.
Few points.
When we look good…all our starters gel well on D. Pankey is ACTIVE. Looks like Len. We get assists other than Howard. Mosley gets buckets.

I see we’re up 40-24 at the half and Len and Howard have no points. Looks like Pankey is more than picking up the slack with 9 pts and 7 rebs from a quick glimpse of the box score

Hockey on versus?
They seriously need to show more games.
And show games other than Boston or New York for once since they’re always blacked out. (This applies triply so to ESPN baseball)
Whose job am I supposed to call for now?
So do we wait til we're up 25
to start chanting “WE WANT THE TWINS, WE WANT THE TWINS!!!”
When we're up 25
that’s when we start the Amen Chorus!
Last time we got up 20+ points it ended up getting down to one before it ever got to 25.
Whose job am I supposed to call for now?
I know this seems like a no-nonsense comment,
but I really think Turge likes this team and really feels like they can do some good things this year. Turge is used to coaching teams that weren’t expected to do well, and our team this year falls in that category. You can tell he thrives on situations like these.
And the decision not to start Stoglin; priceless. Tonight these boys seem to be really buying into Turge’s game plan, and that’s all he wants. Really looking forward to the heights we reach with him as coach.
For as raw as Len's moves are for the moment
He’s shown me even more promise with his passing game today than past games – the anti-padgett if you will
Most impressive thing tonight
Is that he’s staying on the ground and not going for pump fakes. Using his height to block shots and not jumping.
Yeah too bad
his block differential is probably negative though
Well, we played the half like we were not afraid of making a mistake
Let’s see if we can keep going with that attitude
Wtf

BTW Scout updated their football rankings today
for the final times
Diggs moved up to 6
Darby to 9(!)
Goldman up 9 spots to 31
Brown moves down from 58 to 91 though.
Maradas went down for some reason as well.
I have no idea what DJ Reader and Albert Reid’s rankings were before though so don’t know what they moved to.
They have Madaras criminally low
He’s pretty easily a four-star, IMO. That’s where they others have him and his tape makes him look like a potentially elite RT with enough development. Put another way: average three-stars don’t start at LT in the UA HS AA game.
They do have him as a guard
So i think we can all agree they are just idiotic.
I wonder what they see in Goldman that makes them rank him in the 30s
as opposed to top 5 by Rivals and ESPN
Scout loves elite pass-rsuhing DT's
They always have. Goldman isn’t an elite pass rusher but he’s an elite just about everything else.
My bad wrong post reply
One above you is who this was intended for
I'm pretty sure
that an elbow to the face is an offensive foul no matter where you are on the court

if we could keep the lead above 10
the rest of the game… i’d be thrilled. an easy W with no drama is exactly what this team needs. big confidence boost.
I'm calling stoglin beast mode
in the next 2 minutes, get us to a 20 point margin
I like Len looking for the cutters tonight.
Should open up his game.
So far a bad half for stogs

he airballed earlier in the game

I don’t think it’s accurate to say the other team went on a run. It’s more like one team kept scoring at a normal pace while the other started sucking.

sometimes these droughts start on defense
if we can get some good stops, we can get some transition buckets. can’t just rely on halfcourt offense when we’re struggling

If my airballs are rebounded and laid in, does that count as an assist? If so, I have several.

Nikita Mescheriakov 3
C.J. Harris, 3
Ty Walker, 3
Chase Fischer, 3
Carson Desrosiers, 4
McKie at 0 though..
This is the most "Unfinishing" team this year
We drive to the basket and can’t finish. We get rebounds but can’t finish. Problem is, WE SUCK AT FOUL SHOOTING so put those together…wasted offensive opportunities.

Can we put this game away already
so I can go eat a bowl of cereal.
Interesting fact of the game: Len has the least
boards of every Maryland player who has entered the game..
The good news is,
WF has so many fouls, fouling down the stretch might require going DEEP into the bench.

It wasn't a bad drive, but with someone like Walker in the game you can't lean away from the hoop
You have to be able to take it toward the net, lean into him, something. If you can’t, pull it back out.
Not exactly.
I liken his IQ to me near boobs as he is toward shooting. Is he shooting? No? Good he’s smart. Is he shooting? Yes? He be not smart.

I don't agree. He makes some bad choices--more so on the offensive end--but he's a freshman.
He also does things, though, that reveal he can be a crafty player.

He kinda paid the price
for Parker’s foul. But Parker hit the clinching FT
Pe'Shon needs to take control when things are getting out of hand
Too often he looks like he is trying to make something happen
Pe
is not looking for his shot at all, and when he does they are bad decisions. I know he is a pass first guard, but he can take some shots out there when they give them to him. That’ll be one more player opponents will need to account for.
*All Terp Everything*
they had 26 defensive rebounds
we had 18 offensive,…..that’s insane
We hit our FTs, we win by 15+
but we’ve been preaching about that for several years now. Hope that changes some day.
I’ll take the win.
GO TERPS!!

better FT shooting and having a better shooting night for Stoglin would have given us a much more comfortable victory

He was a real game changer, although I am still mad that he has to make a move every time he rebounds the ball, just go up strong. Plus he hit his free throws.
*All Terp Everything*
I agree...
Man it seems like he freezes before he gets to the basket, if he was a half a second faster to the basket he would easily be a 15 points a game player.
Len was bound to have an off game...
But Inspector Padgett and Pankey did a great job picking up the slack. Hopefully Len is back feeling it against GT, but I’m feeling good about our front court options.
GO TERPS!!
The first time was educational, now it's just stupid
Call a timeout to stop an opponent’s run. That’s why you are the coach.
Turge ran out of timeouts
He called a few in the middle of the run.
No he didn't.
Didn’t use one at all in first half. He let them go on 10-2 run before he called his first timeout of the game. Then did not call a second won until it was a 3 point game. He had all the timeouts he needed.
Wake still used 3 more timeouts than Maryland
for the game. I was talking about when the lead went from 18 points to 3 points. That’s kind of when you want to stop that from happening.
A bit of a valid point.
Betcha MT addresses it during his radio show. But I agree, not using TOs to teach a lesson is soooooo last week. Its ACC season, and the goal is to win no matter what and whenever possible….PUMMEL.
It seemed to me as Wake reduced the lead to 7 then 5 then 3 that the TO call was due at 7, ok at 5 he’s showing balls, but then at 3, “wyjanotdoitat 7?”
I missed the first half but from the score it seems like we WERE pummeling Wake for a while.
Glad to see it
Wasn’t worried about Len. Was a lot more worried that Pankey would vanish for the rest of the season. Pankey and Padge together amassed 20 points and 17 boards. Hope this becomes typical AND Len’s game steadily improves (and hope Len learns that he’s really got to battle for rebounds and bang harder for shots – think Ty Walker and McKie got to him this game).
