The timeout thing drives me nuts. When I read “what do you want me to tell them to play harder?!?”. My response was no, you don’t have to say anything like that
My response is “actually, yes. If that will help. Or sit them down and play someone who will. But if you leave them out there to drown nothing comes of it and the guys on the bench deserve an opportunity to salvage this”
I love Oats though. I’ll take him with no timeouts over anyone else

You starting a game thread for tonight?

I wanted to talk shite about Sam Houston, the person, ahead of tonight's game. Being from mid 1800s, I assumed he was probably a shitbag. But he's an interesting guy, who has about as decent as they came back then.
He was a slave owner. But he voted against westward slave holding expansion, and was against Texas succession and joining the Confederacy. Which are things that made him unpopular at the time.
He felt that the with would be overwhelmed by the north and lose the war. And if George McClellan wasn't such a shitty general, it would've been over much sooner without the South gaining so much ground early.

McClellan getting suckered into thinking he was facing a horde of 100,000+ Confederates because a couple hundred of them marched in a circle in and out of the woods all day is one of my favorite pieces of obscure Civil War trivia.

McClellan is probably a bigger hero for the Southern cause than Lee. If he wasn’t such a pussy, the rebellion would have been suffocated in the crib.

Yeah, Nate Oats is my favorite coach. I can want to fight the guy in the moment, then be ok a couple of minutes later when I think about the good that he’s done for the program.
I’m excited that it’s basketball season! These next few months are my favorite time of year.

Starting 5 tonight assuming everyone is healthy? Do we have anyone not healthy

Richardson and Anderson Diaz, plus Holloway is suspended until the third game. Though Richardson could play limited minutes. Closer should be back.
Samuels
Allen
Jemison
Fielder
Garrison
Obviously that'll change when AH comes back.

Biggest mistake south made was creating csa. Should've just became their own thing.

They should have just done what the nobility of Russia did when negotiating the end of serfdom. A buyout and off ramp to free labor under capitalism.

Man auburn is getting the friendliest whistle against SE Louisiana. Looks like the game should be closer than 25-17.

Defensive rotations and close outs for auburn look slow

This is OT but do we have anyone on our team that wears the basketball arm sleeves? Always think it looks cool. John Wall at UK had one and I loved it. As did Tony Mitchell when he was slamming dunks here.

Diaz was wearing one but might be for injury reasons

I remember when auburn thought pettiford was better than philon

You're right. Hopefully he keeps it.

Their fans were very cocky about that opinion too. Philon owned him in that second freshman matchup. Then owned auburn last season.
Will say, Pettiford ended the half very well. Just hit a halfcourt shot before half.
