Seattle 54, SJSU 38

It's getting bizarre and ridiculous.

One almost expected Phil Ford to appear on court running the Four Corners offense as the shorthanded Spartans were game against Seattle, utilizing a delaying type strategy of letting the shot clock run down by holding the ball but ultimately simply not enough skill and size was available and the Redhawks won 54-38 tonight.

More talent appeared in street clothes than in uniform on the Washington Square roster as Jordan Baker, Rashad Muhammad, Frank Rogers, Jaleel Williams and Matt Pollard didn't dress due to a rules infraction. They are under indefinite suspension. The lack of elder leadership is disgusting at this point -- that's three upperclassmen and a critical sophomore. Baker and Rogers also missed the initial three matchups of this season.

Plus, Jalen James is out for the season and Leon Bahner has a foot injury that may have him joining James.

Freshman Darryl Gaynor II led the Spartans with a season high 20 points. That was a plus although he required 18 shots to reach that total.

Two of Ron Caragher's guys, wide receiver Tyler Winston and tight end Andrew Vollert took to the court as a necessity for Coach Wojcik.

Jimmy Durkin tweeted this: "Tyler Winston and Andrew Vollert's status on the team will be handled on a game-by-game basis. Both could be needed next week at Wash. St."

Durkin offered more.
