I don't think Vee passed it immediately to Oliver (can't remember, memory is a little fuzzy). One more pass and it ended up with Oliver, and driving would have been risky time wise. To those who thought Derenbecker should have been in, yeah, probably true. I'd rather him taking a contested shot than those other guys. I would have been happy to take my chances on Benson even though he didn't have a good game. |

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
I have also been impressed by what I have seen in Khari Price, and it looks like we may be seeing a lot of him on Saturday: UD's Dillard Out Indefinitely With Back Spasms (Doug Harris, DDN - December 20, 2012) UD point guard Kevin Dillard may sit out a few games after back spasms forced him to leave the Flyers’ game vs. Illinois State on December 19th. The Dayton Flyers called timeout to set up a final shot while trailing by a point against Illinois State on Wednesday, but the player who would have been their first option was in the trainer’s room getting treatment for a back injury. Best of luck to Kevin Dillard on a speedy and full recovery. It appears that the Flyers will have only two scholarshipped guards available for tomorrow's game.

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
Luckily it is only back spasms. I think it was Blackburn Review that floated a rumor that it was a herniated disk and he was done for the season. That would not have been good.

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
The Flyers catch a lot of flack from being a perenial NIT team and a team whose play degrades once the conference play begins. Some of the criticism is deserved, but there is also a bad luck element.
In 2007-2008 a Dayton Team with Brian Roberts and Chris Wright knocks off an eventual elite eight Louisville team on the road, beat a #6 ranked Pitt team, and then Chris Wright gets injured. The Flyers muddle through the conference, and finish with an RPI of 35 and just miss the NCAA tournament. Last Year Josh Benson goes down, Dayton goes 9-7 in conference and Dayton ends up in the NIT. This year, Kevin Dillard ..... |

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
Illinois State was very good. I felt they were the better team. We were fortunate to have a chance to steal that game at the end. We are weaker inside than I thought or hoped we would be.
Pierre is going to be a fine, fine player.

From growing up playing sports all year, and now being an avid golfer, I get back spasms about once per year. It basically keeps you in bed for a day or two, and then really sucks for a week. Hopefully it's the same for Dillard, only he has first rate S&C people to work him through it and I stumble my way through basic stretches on my own. He could well be ready to go by the USC game. Great time for an 8 day gap between games. I really like Khari Price, and I don't think Archie will put too much on his plate. I imagine Vee Sanford will guard Canaan tomorrow for the most part, with Oliver getting time on him as well. Hopefully Murray State doesn't respect Khari's shooting and he can knock down a couple of open threes. No one can replace what Dillard does, but there are ways to be productive without him. Will need Vee to have his best game thus far as a Flyer, I would think. He's been passive at times, he needs to be the man tomorrow.

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
The issue as I see it is asking Price in particular, but also Sanford, Pierre, and Derenbecker probably getting more minutes and in the case of the last two, at positions they haven't had alot of time at. I wonder if UD will play alot of zone even periods of box and one?

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
I don't think going zone against a team with an all-American point guard and several shooters is really what you want. I think the key is limiting Ed Daniel inside. Keep a body on him at all times and take away offensive rebounds. If Murray State is one and done all game, Dayton has a great chance to win.

Re: 2012-2013 Dayton Flyers
Early in the second half of the Murray State game they had a two on one as Dillard couldn't get to the ball. Pierre trailed the play but appeared to stop when the Murray State player had a clear path to the basket. He missed the shot and the trailing MS player got the rebound and easy put-back. I believe Miller pulled Pierre, talked to him and sat him down. I don't remember him going back into the game. Did he ?
