Loyola coach Porter Moser went to the video to help solve his team’s body language problem.
With the Ramblers 0-5 in the Missouri Valley Conference, he sent Montel James, Milton Doyle and Devon Turk to the bench. He showed them video of what he considered energy-draining demeanor as the Ramblers lost close games and fell to the bottom of the MVC. Loyola lost three games by a total of five points, leading to a crisis of slumping shoulders, blank stares and quiet.
“The last three games those seniors have taken it to heart coming off the bench and their energy level’s been much, much better,” Moser said.
