You should have a game pretty much every Saturday from here on out.

I wouldn't blame Avery quite yet. The only reason Duke/UK can play 3-4 FR at a high level is because they are all Collin Sexton talents (Duke had 4 top 10, 3 higher than Sexton). Yes it is year 3 for Avery, but he had a short time for class 1 + limited connections in HS circuits. He is building an impressive talent base beyond the 5*s too

I remember someone telling me in 2014 year 4 for Bruce was when we'd expect to see "real" results. I think Avery, despite public claims, should have a similar target

I'll keep watching as well, but this is awful. We have better players, but its like we regressed on defense and are about the same on offense

We're getting terrible shots and giving up wide open ones.Other than that, everything's fine.

I'm unbuckled.
It's not because I ate too much over the holidays, either.

Transition offense is the only good offense this team has. Well, other than Hall under the rim.

Yeah the defensive rebounding has been not been fine. Taking terrible shots, no movement on offense. Right now we're 8 minutes in with 7 points and all 7 points are from Sexton, that's a problem.

This team has no offense other than Sexton. The only other ones who can occasionally make a shot refuse to play defense, and the ones that play good defense can’t score at all.

Basically if the other team hits a moderate percentage of their shots we will lose every time.

Avery probably hoping our fans didn’t realize with this showing. UGA is a good team. We are not.

We get an NBA point guard and still won’t even make the NIT.
