Really like the move to have Green defend Dixon. He may get muscled inside at times, but he lets us play the drop coverage and has the length and agility to make Dixon work to get open

Some of the best minutes I've seen from Green this year

8 min in and Ashworth hasn’t attempted a shot

That is 100% not a foul on Ashworth

I get perimeter defense envy watching some of these Big East teams.

Struggling from the line and from 3 so far.

And yet winning each four minute stretch and leading …

I agree on the perimeter defense. They are just smothering out there so far.

We are going to find out how good Ty is as a freshman

Nova goes to a press immediately

I’m sure Ty will be good but that’s a lot of pressure for a freshman

My concern is that Nova will warm up eventually. Left 4 it's at the line so far. I like our D and rebounding so far.

Villanova is not good. One player who’s worth more than nothing, and a bad coach.

Stop turning the ball over.
