Where was Delk?

Akron 83 - State 72

Gordon had a rough game, going 2-9 from the field, and the Zips lit up the Pups from behind the arc hitting 11 threes. Sharpe had a fairly productive game, getting 16 points on 4-8 shooting and 8-12 from the line, but also picked up a technical foul, during his 22 minutes on the floor. Not sure what happened to Rhodes, he got a whopping 10 minutes and was 0-3 from the floor during that limited time.

But, what I really want to know is, where was Delk? One Delk had 10 points, the other had 3 (all free throws). One Delk (I assume Reginald) was 1-2 from three point range and 4-6 from the field. Why did Reginald not get more shots? We've seen what he can do, note the Santa Clara game. Stansbury has to turn him loose in the future, especially when Gordon is having a bad night.

I figure this team has three more games to act like freshmen, then the gloves come off. No more excuses. Stansbury needs to build their confidence during the rest of this pre-SEC schedule and let them play, shoot and run. And I don't know what's going on with Sharpe and Rhodes, but they both need to grow up fast, or this is going to be a painful year.

The Pups play Holy Cross early this afternoon. Holy Cross has lost to Harvard and Siena this season, but they drubbed UT-Chattanooga by 17.
