Has Herb Jones played? I thought he played in the last game.

Not tonight. He played last game and got hurt, but our media didn't bother to send anyone on the trip so who knows what it is.

Was cutting towards to basketball I think and next thing I knew he went down behind the basket. He might've been holding his knee.

Cecil would be able to tell us the extent if they'd sent up a reporter.

Honestly how much would it have cost to send an intern up there? Avery probably would've let them fly with the the team, so all the person would need is a hotel and a rental car for five days.

Avery and the staff have got to find a way to deal with teams that have a big that can pick and pop the 3. It hurt us last year and we looked confused against it tonight.

Just wish Avery wouldve brought another big in. Grad transfer or juco guy. He was being stubborn no reason not to. Just hope Collin is OK. The outcome of these games really don't matter. Yea we want to win but they are just for teaching.

I'm not gonna melt over the score, but there were lots of troubling things in this game.

Sexton loses his head too much, the rebounding was woeful, perimeter defense was better in the 2nd half but still bad, way too many stagnant offensive possessions.

I don't think we should be playing as fast as we are, especially once Dazon get backs. I'm not saying we should be grinding out games like Avery's first two years, but we shouldn't be going 100 mph either.
