Author Topic: Kyle Wiltjer scored 45 points last night eleem Player Member # 884 posted 02-20-2015 01:31 PM                     This whole Gonzaga thing is really working out for Kyle Wiltjer. Last night the former Wildcat scored a career-high 45 points, the most by a Bulldog in 54 years and the second-most by anyone in college basketball this season. He went 15-of-22 from the field, including 7-of-10 from beyond the three-point line, and scored 18 of the Zags’ 22 points during a stretch in the second half. “I was just in the zone,” he said after the game. Don’t look now but Gonzaga has won 20 straight.

The WCC is weak top to bottom and Pacific is the bottom. lol The bulldogs are not a bad team but its about who you play and defense and they're mostly an offensive team.

People said Wichita State did not play tough competition last year on their run and look what a game they gave us enroute to the final four. Gonzaga are on a 21 game winning streak and played some tough competition in the non conference part of their schedule. They have a very good team regardless of what league they play in.

No disrespect to Kyle, but that's just a fact. Posts: 10338 | From: Erlanger, Ky.

I am just happy to see Wiltjer having a good season and will wish him continued success until such time as he meets our Cats face to face on the basketball court If that happens, I would like to see us hold him scoreless.

My opinion is wiltjer would be lucky to start on either of the platoons if Poy was healthy. Not saying he wouldn't but not sure who he would play in front of. Just too slow and IMO still a defensive liability, but yes he can shoot.

Purdue has beat them twice this season, it's not all about scoring, don't get me wrong, I wish Kyle was still a Cat, he was a good kid and I think a good teammate -------------------- Whatever you are be a good one Abraham Lincoln Posts: 1204 | From: Hagerstown, Indiana | Registered: Dec 2002  |  IP: Logged bigbluerev Player Member # 1633 posted 02-20-2015 10:27 PM                    Andrew needs to learn team play?

We are fortunate to have two very solid point guards. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186359 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged Tiptree Administrator Member # 844 posted 02-23-2015 02:59 PM                     With Ulis suffering from shin splints, and after a season of Cal urging him to "play agressive", I think that Andrew is stepping up to the same level of play that he had last year during our run to the championship game. I really like the way he has been playing the last few games. I mean, he had nine assists and one TO against Auburn, and he looked to attack the rim and make the interior pass more often. I hope this is a trend. Now, if Aaron and Booker can find their shooting eye again, we win it all, hands down. -------------------- Tiptree “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson Posts: 13615 | From: Terre Haute, IN | Registered: Sep 2000  |  IP: Logged m hamilton Player Member # 127 posted 02-23-2015 09:39 PM                     The first thing out of Coach Cal's mouth this evening on his call in show was what about Kyle Wiltjer! -------------------- The potus is planning 1st major tax hike since '93 in next economic package!
