Thought the competition would come if we faced Brazil until I saw Chile beat them by 20. I think we have to just be happy that the squad has been together in an official capacity all summer. 

Competition is poor, but so far seeing a lot of balanced scoring reflecting ball movement, on-ball play getting multiple players looks and positioning. Hey, it's a start --

If 5 for 5 goes ahead and class of 2022 gets an extra year, it would be great to have Sam Alexis.

I'd prefer Wilkerson come back in that scenario but wouldn't make as much sense for him as Alexis.

Get both? Maybe Enright for back-up PG while you're at it! I know it's not that simple, but how much better would you feel with a starting line-up of Burton, Lindsay, Wilkerson, Shirrel & Samet with Enright, Moody, Sisley & Alexis off the bench? Top 10-15ish team, right? College sports are completely dead, so we might as well enjoy the funeral.

No one under 50 gets this joke...which makes it better somehow.

Karvala did surprise me quite a bit and I will add that Manhurtz was much better than expected.

Harris did not impress me at all.  Seemed to get lost at times.

Harris was very aggressive looking for catch and shoot opportunities vs Canada. When I see that kind of quick trigger and coach doesn't seem upset, I assume he must be lights out in practice.

It was interesting that Mustaf was healthy for this game, but Harris still got the start.

All I got from this video is that our players need to tuck in their shirts.

Was turning on the channel to see our opponent for tomorrow. Forgot the time change so The Virgin Islands wasn’t on yet. Brazil barely beating that Colombia team…. Which is beside the point. The feed seems 50x better today.

Sherrell was a man among boys in that game, and it is really nice to see the Freshmen and the back of the bench get quite a bit of run in the second half.

[cbp4iu]

Peru only down 5 after the 1st Quarter. These teams seem very similar in talent via eye test. Virgin Island probably will win by like 15-20

Good Lord what a way to make us feel old — the conjunction junction cartoon I watched as a kid taught in … history class?? Lol

Moody’s play thus far matches what his HS games looked like.  He always seemed like an underrated prospect to me nationally.  Granted the competition is poor, but so far he looks to be beyond his years.  
 

The prospect of Alexis as 13 would be the perfect fit to fill the roster. Hoping that happens, although the chaos that will happen nationally if 5/5 super seniors become eligible would be utter chaos. 
 

We’d need a deep dive into open schollies, then you know other schools would utilize the 15 scholarship size to bring in superstars, so the benefits Alexis would afford us, might be a net negative based on what other big spenders would do with the opportunity.

When’s the last time we actually had a big scoring threat off of the bench? Seems like finally he might be that guy that we’ve been truly missing for years when offense stalls because of substitutions 

[SlamaJamaSisley]

Is there a roster with names and numbers posted anywhere?  I don’t know who most of these guys are.

I’m not sure why they put Soklov and Yigi on there. They even list their homes as in Europe.  
 

I’m sure the practice time is valuable.  But the whole operation seems kind of like they just threw it together over the weekend and I find it hilarious. 

[68Hoosier]

Is the game today and at 6pm again?
