Clearly couldn’t handle the pressure of playing for a blue blood

Alabama will host Longwood on November 7th as part of its 22-23 non-conference schedule.
The game will serve as the season opener for both programs.

No, we played Houston last year and are playing them again this year.

Is an MTE a multi team exhibition?
Would make sense for us to not play an exhibition against them.

Multi team event. It's like a mini tournament during the regular season with a few teams.

Could still be us. The rosters are different from last year. Ours especially. I wouldn't want to give them any kind of scouting advantage.

I could be wrong, but I thought you could only play in 1 MTE per year which would take us out of being this team discussed.

Yeah I was thinking it meant exhibition games not a regular season tournament.

4-star Donnie Freeman says Syracuse, Georgetown, Alabama are "most active"
Donnie Freeman is the 2024 On3 Consensus No. 32 ranked player. The 6-foot-9 forward is coming off a Peach Jam that saw him start for a Team Takeover team that made it to the 17u championship game.
“I try to be as versatile as possible,” Freeman told On3. “I can rebound, guard the best player, handle the ball. I’m trying to do as much as I can on the court and always getting better. I watch a lot of Scottie Barnes and Paul George; they are always playing hard. I feel that motor and the versatility differentiate me in this class.”
Even though it’s early in the 2024 process, colleges are already starting to prioritize the Washington (DC) St. John’s Collegiate forward. On3 caught up with Donnie Freeman recently to see who he hears from the most.
“Georgetown, Syracuse, and Alabama have both started to be really active,” Freeman said. “I took an unofficial visit to Syracuse.
Freeman talks recruitment
Syracuse: “I knew a lot about them before my visit because I used to watch them growing up. I really learned how much they value players like me, guys with long and wiry frames. Being there, seeing the history of their program was cool.”
Alabama: “I really like Coach (Nate) Oats. They tell me how much they like my potential and my skill set and frame. I haven’t watched them play much yet, but I want to learn more about them.”
Georgetown: “I think it would be really nice to stay home. They have a black coach with Coach (Patrick) Ewing and Coach (Clinton) Crouch on staff, there are some young coaches too. They have a lot of things going for them.”
“I think Louisville could be pretty close,” Freeman said. “I would say them, Penn State, and LSU could be close to offering.”
In his words
I don’t want to force anything when it comes to schools,” Freeman said. “So I’m looking for something that just feels natural. I want to play for a player’s coach, someone who really cares for his players.
“It would always be nice to stay close to home, but I’m willing to wherever the best fit is to play in college. I want to go to a program that has a rich history of getting players to the league.

Currently Alabama has 7 non-conference opponents that played in the NCAA Tournament last season. That number could grow higher with potential games vs. UConn and/or Iowa State/North Carolina/Villanova in the Phil Knight Invitational.

Why shouldn't it if he feels it's important?

I can't imagine a top recruit wanting any part of Syracuse or Georgetown right now. Boeheim has taken an "I built it, and that gives me the right to destroy it" attitude and Ewing still being employed after last season is a fricking joke and the product of pure nepotism.

Longwood
The irony here is that Longwood used to be an all girls school. Always thought that was an odd name fir an all girls school

Didn't we sign a Grant era transfer from Longwood that we all convinced ourselves would be good?
Posted on 8/4/22 at 10:04 am to SummerOfGeorge
Yes. Michael Kessens. Put up really good numbers as a freshman at Longwood and was terrible for us. Honestly I think a lot of that was just Grant's offense being so unbelievably bad though, because he subsequently transferred to FIU and was really good for them.
