  1. Ref 3 feet away, looking right at it LOL
  2. He's been the biggest disappointment for me (Tucker-the-chucker that is).
  3. The B10 season is going to be ugly I'm afraid.
  4. I pretty much agree with the thoughts othershave posted. CDV had to shop for a full roster, so unless he had an unlimited checkbook, he wasn't going to bring in an all-star team (and he hasn't). The story has yet to be written on how successful the combo of talent and coaching results. I don't have any idea where we rank in spending. My guess is that we were well prepared for the adoption of NIL when it started, but many schools quickly passed us in spending. The shame is that we squandered our head start with a dud running the program. This rebuild will likely take longer to achieve what we hope for than we (wishfully) believed. I stll shake my head at some of what we claimed 10 months ago (we could grab an elte coach, and with "our resources" be back near the top - because just look at what others (UK, UL, etc.) did.) Cig was "lightning in a bottle" - impossible to do twice (and we didn't).
  5. Are players no longer taught to follow their shot?
  6. This blends with some things I've considered. First is that opponents may not have been able to fully prepare for us as a team composed of all new players. I'm not sure how much teams scout & gameplan in the first month. As the games accumulate there's more tape on who we are and what we do. As mentioned, maybe we haven't been gameplanning too intensively, especially against the lesser opponents. Then, there's the fact that our offense will largely live by the three and die by the three. I expect we may see a bit of a rollercoaster season based on it. We lack size & depth compared to the teams we will face going forward. It will really be a good test for the coach and his staff to show how they can compensate for weaknesses (same applies to most teams).
  7. Not a great performance but no panicking or choking. Take the 'W' and learn from it. Credit to IC for hitting shots.
  8. Lookeed like a neck/neuro injury byhis movement on the field. Hopefully just a concussion.
  9. We may not have the athletes like the past many years, but we now have the basketball players.
  10. LOL my stream must be about 70 seconds behind everybody else.
  11. Seems like a lot of thosecalls occur AFTER they see MU lost possession.
