Exactly right. My biggest issue was all the open shots from range we missed. If Mayo, Jamil, and Jake hit their shots yesterday, I think many people would be praising Derrick. The problem was they missed their shots, so Derrick doesn't get credit for creating since there weren't assists to back it up. And as they missed, someone had to take shots, so Derrick started throwing them up, which isn't his strong suit. He put some guys in position to score and they didn't do it, he had a couple nice drives, I really think he's doing okay.
The second half was the type of game that will make DeWil look bad. OSU closed down passing lanes and packed the inside since no one on Marquette could hit a shot. With the lanes closed, Derrick either had to force bad passes or throw up bad shots. He got no help at all. Cadougan, James, Diener...none of them would have looked good in a situation like yesterday.
