if anyone's wondering Tennessee just went on a 43-6 run in their home opener and are winning 78-34. sigh. 

Uhmmm...ok?

[Machinator 32099]

I suspect Long will need to be reined in at some point this season, but today we absolutely needed his aggression. Good for him.

Hayes is is just something else as an athlete. Never seen anything like him. He's not quite as fast, but he reminds me of LeBron. Freak.

Or as strong ... or as skilled ... in fact, the more I think about it, the more I realize he's nothing like LBJ.

Just joshin' ya, bruh.

His hops and reach remind me of Rick Barnes

Shaka was rotating a lot in that half and that was without Roach, Jones and Hamm. 

Think he realized that he needs to play more guys this year so we’re fresh. 

We will see if that continues but this is a game where you need to get the freshman minutes.

I'm not going to judge the first half too strongly. First game of the season and all that.

What I did not like was the missed free throws from Febres and Osetkowski. I did like that Osetkowski was generally in better control, and that all of the freshmen who played showed their ability early.

Fuck you, this is funny. Almost spit my drink.

Lance Blanks predicting KSU to overtake KU this year? Bold move, Cotton.

yeah. not gonna happen.

[Revolution512 1495]

Grimes dropping 20 on MSU already? Fuck we needed that guy

[Goo Punch 4275]

they called that a flagrant?! good lord.

[Horny Bull 2766]

College basketball referees are so bad.

[Machinator 32099]

Coleman's stroke looks more confident so far. Wide open looks, but still.

[Goo Punch 4275]

Coleman really running things offenseively for us.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Coleman might have a jumper now. 

[Bort 9]

Coleman might get a double-double. Already on 7 assists

[Get ln My Van 927]

Once this team starts to gain some  comradery they will be a fun team to watch. No doubt about the natural athleticism and skill on the team.

[texasstrong12 4668]

I really like Long’s game. You can’t be hesitant and he attacks when given space. 

[Machinator 32099]

7:1 assist:TO ratio for Coleman thus far.

[texasstrong12 4668]

They have hit some of the luckiest shots. 

[Machinator 32099]

Fuck that shit.

[Machinator 32099]

Lol, a DO dunk.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Eastern Illinois best offense is to throw up a bank shot from half court. 

[Machinator 32099]

If Febres can consistently sink that corner 3, we might have one solution to the zone.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Keep playing the freshman. Give them some minutes. 

[Goo Punch 4275]

EIU just has nothing inside. keep pounding it.

[Machinator 32099]

Liddell... not ready.

[texasstrong12 4668]

4 freshman out there now. This will probably get sloppy now. 

[Braff Zacklin 13667]

Liddell with some NWGS on back-to-back trips.

 

Wait ...

[Machinator 32099]

Holy shit, Hayes.

[Goo Punch 4275]

good d from hepa. freshmen are ready to play tonight.

[Machinator 32099]

These freshmen are legit. I mean, it's EIU, but the fact that we extended the lead with them is still impressive.

[Get ln My Van 927]

Ramey, Hepa and Hayes are gonna be niiiiice

[OU Sucks 8934]

I'm liking what I see from Hayes and Hepa.

The two freshman bigs have a better feel than Osetkowski Sims.

Hepa is a high IQ player. He needs to play more minutes. 

[Machinator 32099]

Hayes played guard in high school, and it shows.

[Machinator 32099]

AJ1!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Goo Punch 4275]

AJ!!!

[Horny Bull 2766]

Andrew Jones enters the game to a large ovation. Very cool. 

[Braff Zacklin 13667]

Drew Dot Cash inda house!

[CheesePie 238]

Awesome!

[Goo Punch 4275]

Jones getting it in early!!

[Machinator 32099]

Goddamn, Hayes' block looked clean.

[Goo Punch 4275]

DO has the worst rebounding instincts i've ever seen.

[Goo Punch 4275]

our guards are going to get a lot of practice throwing up lobs.

[Machinator 32099]

Jones aggressive, love it.

[RoundRobin 828]

🤘

[Goo Punch 4275]

He sinks it!
