  1. Vok needs to process quicker or kick it back out … that hold the ball for 2 seconds and elbowing his way into 2 ft range is not good …
  2. Mark is our only player with a negative +/- (-8) that half … Weav leads the team with +16 [emoji41]
  3. What’s with all the touch fouls now?
  4. We aren’t bad running off a defensive rebound but our guards are rough viewing in the half court and getting the ball inbounds after dead balls
  5. We know what we have with Vok and Swain. Pope and Mark are consistently inconsistent. They are not guards who can run an offense or handle a press/trap. If Wilcher and Heide continue to gain minutes and confidence, and can provide consistent points, this team could be good enough to fight for a tournament spot. We run the fast break fairly well and probably need to do that as much as we can to keep the pressure off Pope and Mark. Mark did look better last night in the small forward/swing role with Wilcher and Weave on the court and Swain at PF. He seemed more comfortable passing and driving out of that lineup. The smaller line-up with this team is probably as big as our large lineup last year, so we can run that without getting punished if Traore and Vok defend and rebound ok. We are basically as team with 2 guards, Wilcher and Pope. Mark and Weav are basically small forwards, though Weav can defend 1-4. Tonight's game should provide a good glimpse of what Miller thinks will be the most effective line-up(s) in SEC.
  6. The early roadmap to beat Texas is to press and trap our guards on defense and screen the fuck out of them on offense. When Traore is in the game just work it inside and get fouls. We don't have a guard who looks comfortable with the ball in his hands (except maybe Weav, who is more a small forward), which is a giant concern. Teams will double and muck it up with Vok (who needs to tamp down the emotions at times) and live or die by our guards outside shooting. Our front line is solid, though Traore looks like he is new to basketball about 85% of the time. Our guards are currently probably bottom 1/4 of the SEC level and need a lot of work. Gaping hole at PG is gonna be a problem all year.
  7. We are hurting at the guard spot and Az St is now pressing and trapping … somebody has to be able to bring the ball up the court
  8. Bevo gets the souvenir ball
  9. Taaffe sure is good at celebrating after plays … wish he would save that shit until a win is wrapped and under the tree
  10. He is working back from a very serious injury and is still young … even if he never recovers fully, saying a guy who was injured on the field is a wasted scholarship is prematurely shitty.
  11. Lotta lineman not even engaged with a defender when the play is run their direction… Ugly shit
  12. Hill don’t play DB
  13. Anytime we get a chance to beat Arkansas is easy to get up for … they hate up there with the Aggies and Sooners and would be nice to make them feel some pain today.
  14. The next few pre-conference games are critical for Mark. He has been inconsistent and looks lost, sloppy, and uninterested too much for my liking for 5th year player, despite the new system. If he doesn't find his groove soon, Wilcher and the Weav will and should feast on more of his minutes.
  15. It's a great change to finally, after many years, have a team stacked with stocky guys that deliver the pain in the paint rather than receive it.
  16. Traore is physically the real deal and very aggressive on defense and the boards. When the ball is in his hands on offense, he kicks into adrenaline rush like my ridgeback when she sees a squirrel. He just needs to calm down on offense a bit.
  17. Is Mark still looking somewhat like a deer in the headlights?
  18. The lack of flow/distribution/leadership from the guards was definitely concerning.
  19. They’re gonna run on us this half to make our bigs keep up … time to hit some transition shots
  20. The guards (Wilcher, mark and pope) are shooting 1 for 7 with 1 assist (I count weaver as a small forward) …. If we can get about 15 points and 5-7 assists total from them a game we should be pretty stout
  21. Night and day difference between the toughness, rebounding and defense inside from last year … hoping mark and pope start getting comfortable … they look like they aren’t sure what we are trying for I run on offense I think this team can hang with anyone if we can hit some outside shots
  22. What are we fucking reviewing?
  23. Team looks bouncy and scrappy but kinda worried about mark as the primary ball handler …
