Duvivier is playing better tonight than he’s been playing, he just can’t get a shot to fall. Reid just has zero clue offensively or defensively. Crazy how little depth this team has. If GPII isn’t doing a whole lot offensively the team cannot score.
Yeah gp2 not doing anything hurts a lot. Coach is yelling at the starters “jogging back, jogging back”. The D is ten times better thsn last year already
GP-2 has been sitting out for awhile. I didn’t see anything wrong with his game…..Portland is not going to let him score….his teamates are missing wide open looks. Duvivier needs to get a stroke pretty soon. Kind of an ugly shot.
Weird thing was last year in limited minutes he was a good shooter. 49.3% from the field and 45.2% from three. Surprised to see his percentages drop so much in more minutes. He looked much more confident last year. Very hesitant this year and looks to be lacking confidence in his game overall.
Maybe it’s just a slump, but on a team with limited options, he needs to find his shot again soon. Frustrating game, Beavers have had good looks, need to tighten up the perimeter defense.
There are a few UP fqns in line for an autograph too(its a solid 30 people deep right now). Get your own legend! Or at least teach reid how to shoot FTs. Fair trade.
Ok State was, Beavs just aren’t playing near that level tonight. Olaf has hardly touched the ball in the 2nd half. Not a recipe for success. Need to run the offense through him right now.
I know not much is expected of the team, but Tinkle may need to figure out an alternative to Duvivier. He’s been brutal lately. They should be winning this game. Would Chai Baker have been the PG?
I’ve heard Reveno is a little bit annoyed by all of the attention with Tinkle and the Beavs in the media, he feels like this is one of the better Pilot teams and they get ignored. I guess if he loses, he’s got nothing to complain about.
Yeah he is. Crwzy series there. Good game so far. Had the winning possession but missed the shot. Still, 7 point favorites? Only if we keep playing reid and duv.
Beavs need to run some stuff like that for Payton on a regular basis, I’d rather see him take that shot then Duvivier. He can score inside like his Dad.
The missed layups, Robbins taking three seconds off of the clock and shooting a fade away jumper……we’ve been programmed with CR to think this way…gives us a break!
Funny I just wrote that below (CR thing). I really think there’s something to that. Every team misses layups it’s all about effort plays in the end, and the beavs were getting tons of rebounds and hustle plays.
Tinkle threw his clipboard on Robbins shot…I bet Robbins doesn’t do that again. On a strategic note, they played much better with Duvivier out of the line up. I would guess that Tinkle took notice. I also understand that they have serious depth issues so Duvivier will have to play.
Down 7(?) at one point in the second half and finish with a win. How many blown leads did CR have last year alone. And did he have any come from behind wins?
Yep. He would go INTO second half with a nice lead and still fucking lose. Here the guys fought back and got the win. For effort and D, this is a much better team than last year. They lack in talent, and scoring punch, but maybe that can develop — figure out who can shoot and from where…. the UP team had that….
First true road game, UP favored by 7.5, missed about 100 layups and still pulled out the victory. I am excited for the future under Tinkle. CR would have lost this game by about 20.
That was enjoyable to watch. I think some of you have scars from CR (and maybe even MR) because you’re predicting loses when the team wasn’t showing any signs they quit or couldn’t win it. I saw the opposite…dudes trying really hard and wanting it. I’m not saying I knew they’d win, but I didn’t see any reason to think it was over. Have some faith in these guys because they’re earning it with the effort.
That Connor dude over at the boycotted fish wrap predicted 5 wins for the entire season! I’m going to say it….how can all of these journalists in Oregon be so fucking stupid and not understand poor or even mediocore coaching when they see it. Bitch and moan about Corvallis and facilities and airports….it always boils down to fucking coaching!!!!
Yer hittin the nail on the head. Its not really all that common for a sports writer to actually do indepth analysis and actually have insight to why games are won or lost. And….in the writeup they are expected to do, superficial works just fine.
And nice guy behavior by a coach is very welcome, and so they tend to give that coach a break.
Hopefully Robbins can play at that level each night. If so, with Payton they could be decent even in conference. The point guard is a good driver but can’t finish to save his life…that’s going to be a problem.
Good win. Looked a little short size wise, but that could be the video.
Seemed poised down the strectch, made FT’s, and played good D.
I thought too much dribbling and one-on-one play at the end of regulation.
Question: can Tinkle design a play for the end of games, or does he rely on the players ability to make it happen?
I expect they have worked mostly on fundamentals, unlearning CR tendancies, the D’s they shift in and out of…..but at some point ol Tinkle will for sure work up some clever scoring plays for various situations.
Game wasn’t pretty but the Beavers found a way to get it done. Robbins was good, his shot selection at times was poor but he also made a lot of big plays when the Beavs needed them.
Olaf played a really good game on both ends. Played solid defense and hit big shots to keep the team in it in the first and second half. His defense to preserve the win was nice. Like the fact that Olaf isn’t trying to be something he’s not. Doesn’t gamble on defense or try to be a shot blocker. He just focuses on being solid and contesting. His improvement has been enormous this season.
Team would be decent if Duvivier ever gets it going. I’m higher on him than most. He has talent, he just seems to be lacking confidence. I think that turns around at some point.
His talent seems to be getting into the lane and getting good looks. He just can’t finish…you’re right, though, sometimes just one of those falls and a guy goes on a streak. Hopefully soon.
They’re going to get killed in Pac-12 play if they start off the way they started off tonight. Luckily Portland was cold too and that was the difference.
Really impressed with what WT is doing with the team. Seems to be making a silk purse out of a…
Really we have like 4 legit players. If reid or duv can get something going we’ll steal some conference wins.
Super duper impressed with WT live. Always teaching. And yelling plays and schemes to the guys. Also schmoozing with fans before the game and halftime. That guy is a diamond.
It’s down to 7 players for the most part…Ironically, they are going to be crazy deep next year. Tinkle may have the problem of not enough minutes to give.
I have felt good about Tinkle and his ability to develop this team all along.
I think that we will surprise the PAC12. I predict .500 or better. Crazy, yes.
Me too…. Just the business of not coaching what is at halftime a win, into a loss, like CR seemed determined to do, should get us a few. One thing needed is finding who can get hot and score a bunch. We kept UP from making a basket for long stretches but I cant see that happening in conference play. We gotta work up ways to get more scoring. I think that will happen, as the coaches learn better who can do what. We’ll see. But right now, very happy with the progress.
If the PG can just finish in the lane on easy shots we’ll see a huge boost in offense. For now he should get in the lane like he’s been doing and dish to whomever’s open, until he finds his shot.
Go Beav’s
No tv? I’m not finding anything
No tv but this stream is linked from osubeavers.com so I guess it’s the only legit way to watch.
http://portal.stretchinternet.com/up/portal.htm?eventId=186164&streamType=video
Yes, only stream is through the U of P website, not airing on P-12 network.
Thanks GoBeavers
At the game. Coach walked by the fan section early on and gave a big smile and “go beavers!” To everyone.
UP has a lot of tall players it looks like. Could be interesting
The women are 8-0 and killed Sac State today.
UP’s intro video kept stuttering. Love it lol
Hopefully LMW start getting it going tonight
What the hell with no tv??? Pac12 shorts on all P12 channels? Wtf! Gd p12 channels are worthless
UP favored by 7.5
Olaf is so skilled in the post. His footwork is impressive. Gotta get him the ball down there a lot tonight.
I’d like to see him get the ball “down” if you know what I mean.
Rebounding hard, playing hard “D”…shooting like shit…..I hope the shooting comes around at some point.
Jarmal Reid is so bad
So is duvivier. Just dribbles around. Coach was pissed after that pnr alleyoop dunk.
Duvivier is playing better tonight than he’s been playing, he just can’t get a shot to fall. Reid just has zero clue offensively or defensively. Crazy how little depth this team has. If GPII isn’t doing a whole lot offensively the team cannot score.
Reid….so far….wild jump hook that wasn’t close…1 for 4 from the foul line…..did he just foul a three point shooter again?
Also fumbled a ball out of bounds
Yeah gp2 not doing anything hurts a lot. Coach is yelling at the starters “jogging back, jogging back”. The D is ten times better thsn last year already
GP-2 has been sitting out for awhile. I didn’t see anything wrong with his game…..Portland is not going to let him score….his teamates are missing wide open looks. Duvivier needs to get a stroke pretty soon. Kind of an ugly shot.
At least Schaftenaar is shooting well.
Schaft might be a real impact player next year.
Jarmal Reid with another boneheaded play
Fuciing reid again. Foul on a 3. Hes horrible
Holy, holy shit.. Reid just fouled a three point shooter again!!!!
Reid is so strange. His freshman year he looked like the only one on the entire team that could play D.
Difference in the game is Portland is playing smarter
Also getting and hitting 50 FTs. Thats the entire difference right now.
Can Duvivier shoot or is this going to be a problem all year? What good is getting open if you can’t convert?
Weird thing was last year in limited minutes he was a good shooter. 49.3% from the field and 45.2% from three. Surprised to see his percentages drop so much in more minutes. He looked much more confident last year. Very hesitant this year and looks to be lacking confidence in his game overall.
Maybe it’s just a slump, but on a team with limited options, he needs to find his shot again soon. Frustrating game, Beavers have had good looks, need to tighten up the perimeter defense.
All duvivier does is dribble dribble pass. His D has been ok. But he cant shoot and seems to barely drive. Just not a threat at all.
GP version one is getting mugged at halftime lol.
There are a few UP fqns in line for an autograph too(its a solid 30 people deep right now). Get your own legend! Or at least teach reid how to shoot FTs. Fair trade.
Unfortunately for the Beavs, the Pilots look like the best team they’ve played so far.
Ok State was, Beavs just aren’t playing near that level tonight. Olaf has hardly touched the ball in the 2nd half. Not a recipe for success. Need to run the offense through him right now.
Maybe best is the wrong word, but I think the smartest team. Reveno is a good coach.
duvivier is hilarious. he drives the lane and misses like 10x per game
Yup. Those were not hard shots.
robbins langston and olaf came to play though
I don’t understand how he’s on a team. Was he a walk on? 1 star recruit?
No, he was a CR recruit, I think from Canada. He actually looks like he’d be a good football player.
Dont we have like 5 walkons? GP2 brings the ball up sometimes too. Thats a much better alternative. Coach had been yelling “move olaf!” Alot lately…
I know not much is expected of the team, but Tinkle may need to figure out an alternative to Duvivier. He’s been brutal lately. They should be winning this game. Would Chai Baker have been the PG?
Any chance GPII plays a little bit tight when his father is at the game?
Doubt it. He was at the games in Vegas and GPII played well there. He just isn’t playing well and Portland is playing him tight.
That blonde Portland cheerleader is pretty cute.
I like the announcers too…they actually know their shit about the players.
Robbins and langston came to play! Reid is sad sitting on the bench. You can stay there until you learn at least one basketball skill!
Wide open on the baseline again for 3. Duvivier and reid on thr bench. Finally!
GP with the lazy pass for a dunk. Thrn comes back with a sexy move into layup. Tie again!
I’ve heard Reveno is a little bit annoyed by all of the attention with Tinkle and the Beavs in the media, he feels like this is one of the better Pilot teams and they get ignored. I guess if he loses, he’s got nothing to complain about.
well he can STFU now.
Gomis blows a layup. Been an ugly game. I’d like to see some pick and pop with GPII and Olaf down the stretch.
How did Gomis miss that lay-up?
Duvivier out. Coach must want to win now
Oregon State has lost Portland big men numerous times at the rim tonight. Not communicating and giving away free points
I fee like they are going to lose and they really should have won this game.
Where has this Robbins been this season?
Robbins is pretty good.
Yeah he is. Crwzy series there. Good game so far. Had the winning possession but missed the shot. Still, 7 point favorites? Only if we keep playing reid and duv.
Now reid is in wtf!!!
Robbins is an athlete! Tinkle coaching his ass off.
Good D from Reid on that forced switch.
Tinkle needed to take a timeout there. Beavers had nothing going there.
Mike rikey tribute there
I was wondering if he didn’t have one to take?
He had 1 timeout left. So I thought it was odd that he didn’t take one.
That was not a good last 30 seconds. I feel like they waited 3 or 4 seconds too long to start the offense…they will learn.
Beavs really want this one. I love how they’re playing.
Is…is this what it feels like to have a real coach that actually takes timeouts to draw out plays?
Beavers are too small right now. They can’t get defensive rebounds with Reid playing the 4 right now
GP2 with some offense, good D…A THING OF BEAUTY.
Beavs need to run some stuff like that for Payton on a regular basis, I’d rather see him take that shot then Duvivier. He can score inside like his Dad.
Tikle threw his clipboard after that robbins jumper
That was a CR play by Robbins….what the hell was he thinking?
Jarmal Reid misses layups worse than any player i’ve ever seen
It was hideous. Are he and duv roommates?
How do you not even hit the rim from 2ft away?
Who’s the geezer rockin out on the guitar in the UP band?
Make your FT’s boys and you got this!
Hit yo free throws, Payton!
GP2 is crazy athletic
Awesome defense by Olaf. He’s been really good on both ends tonight.
Beavs are going to win.
Why did you guys think they were going to lose? They were playing hard and clearly wanted it.
The missed layups, Robbins taking three seconds off of the clock and shooting a fade away jumper……we’ve been programmed with CR to think this way…gives us a break!

Great work down the stretch. Refreshing.
I was thinking exactly the same thing.

He would have lost by at least 20, but also would have had his head down moping.
Nice win boys. Well done
Ballgame! Go beavs!

Yeah, he’s not really forcing shots, getting pretty nice looks.
They’re going to get killed in Pac-12 play if they start off the way they started off tonight. Luckily Portland was cold too and that was the difference.
Really impressed with what WT is doing with the team. Seems to be making a silk purse out of a…
Yup, they played better with GP at the point. I think the line up was GP, Walker, Robbins, Schaft and Reid at the end.
Gomis for reid sometimes.
Really we have like 4 legit players. If reid or duv can get something going we’ll steal some conference wins.
Super duper impressed with WT live. Always teaching. And yelling plays and schemes to the guys. Also schmoozing with fans before the game and halftime. That guy is a diamond.

I can’t believe women’s BB is 8-0 and demolishing opponents. Several 50 point wins. It would be nice if these sports could bring in actual revenue.
Just think of what Rueck could do if he were able to recruit to Corvallis.
Don’t they play North Carolina on the road soon? Big test. How the hell did Rueck do this? Coaching!!!!!
Go Beavs!
Women”s Volleyball won again tonight in the NCAA Tourney 2nd round. They are in the Sweet 16 now!
Wayne Tinkle just favorited my tweet.
@waynetinkle Great job tonight. Players had a visible desire to win that game. Never saw that once last year.Great work doesn’t go unnoticed
Go Beavs
