We need a Jaylin Williams on this team.

Someone that is strong/
Lengthy enough to defend the 5 and still be a legitimate 3 pt threat

Brazile is not it, I’m afraid

Tramon Mark had an MRI and had no serious injuries. He flew back with the team.

Layden Blocker should be our permanent PG

Mark will be fine but no chance he plays vs Duke if I had to guess. That one might get ugly at home early and the folks will really get restless.

Everyone wanted a tougher OOC, seems many forgot that means losses too.

BUT if playing good teams early means we don't have that bad start in conference play then I'm fine with it. We're looking at 4-5 OOC losses counting Duke and the tough OU game in Tulsa.

Auburn, @UGA, @UF, A&M is a tough 4 game opener. That's a 'would love 3-1, but take 2-2, pls not 1-3 or 0-4 seasons over' start.

Right now I do not think we'd beat Auburn, UF or A&M.

Glass half full... if we can beat Duke and OU, we're right back in good shape.

Duke is flat out better than us but BWA is usually good for a magic win or two per season.

That would leave us 2-2 Quad I, 1-0 Quad II going into conference play. Hard to ask for much more than that.

Yeah we'll have the UNCG loss but metric wise it's probably not going to hurt us much (unless they collapse)

Hard to see us beating Duke without Mark.

With our football program being what it is, I was hoping at this point in the basketball season we'd have more to cheer about.

It’s not that easy to see even with Mark

I’m just saying, the opportunities are still out there for this team. More pressure now though

Tramon Mark was in a wheel chair on the travel day back on Saturday. Will be seeing a spine specialist today, per Muss.

Anybody see the tweet by Steve Sullivan? Supposedly muss broke down every play of all 3 games personally. You think Pittman would ever do something like that?

Presumably the wheel chair is just a precaution since there was no significant injury?

Hope we can get him back soon

Advanced Stats post-Mortem from the Bahamas is up at FayVillains and it’s, uh….., not very pretty. Devo and Brazile huge disappointments so far.

Well, they had a long trip home with delays and 2 days without practice so I’m sure he had plenty of time to watch and critique 9 or so players.

You hear Bobby Petrino in coming back? This will inspire the BB team as well. Message sent. Arkansas isn't playing nice anymore!
