I don't know a single thing about OM basketball this year other than marshall henderson is on the team. And actually, I haven't even really heard his named much this year, at least compared to last year. Is he still incredible or has he fallen off some?

What are the strengths/weaknesses? They are letting students in for free tomorrow, and being that it's at 4pm on a Saturday and the season opener in baseball is at noon just next door, I'm expecting one of the best crowds we've had all year. Should be a great one.

If our guards struggle, we struggle. Marshall and Jarvis Summers are our two scorers. We aren't very big and we don't rebound very well.

Hendo will make it exciting no matter what.

I find it hard to believe more schools (minus Kentucky and Florida?) don't let their students in for free. SEC basketball isn't worth the price of admission.

I wish I could tell you what to expect.

Since it's on the road, I expect a huge pile of dog shite.

We win by 20 or lose by 2. No in between.

I'll tell you one thing not to expect from us: rebounds.

Well, lucky for us we seem to do alright at rebounding. We USUALLY, a game or two notwithstanding, we suck at hitting 3s. When we can make them we play really well. We also dont' seem to defend them very well at all.

Pretty much the same for us. Question: Do you have any big white guys that like to shoot the ball? He/They could have career nights.

Yes, and he might be our best player. He's a 3/4, so he won't be under the basket much but he has a pretty good intermediate game. He will absolutely not hesitate to launch a straight away 3. He's currently gimpy though and didn't play much/well against MSU on tuesday.

We don't have a true offense threat under the basket. Our bigs have been extremely improved this year rebounding compared to last, but we don't have anyone that'll scare you when they get the ball in their hands down low. Our guards are pretty good, and play anywhere from average to really really good. Mann/Gaines are both young guys that have improved since last year, but aren't elite by any stretch. We have a lot of role players that just play well together. We don't have someone like a KCP from last year that we can go to when things are slow to just take over.
