And then on the other end he would immediately pick up a foul

17 offensive boards to 8 for Penn.

Somewhere in that there's gotta be a silver lining.

There is no guarantee he is any good. But Kira played 38 minutes tonight.....he ain’t gonna last playing that much. Would be nice to have someone give him a blow

Long term it's great to have a talented kid like that, but he's done nothing collegiately. I'm sure it'd be a net positive but he's going to be just as up and down as everyone else.


I would normally agree, but Beetle played with a bad wrist and our injury problems are bad. We really need a quality guy that we can bring in. He's supposed to be quality anyway. Hell our luck he's another Petty

All I want to see is improvement as the year goes on. Oats has his work cut out for him. We should be 2-2 in our first 4 before the beatdown from UNC.

Furman will give us all we want and the trip to Rhode Island will be tough too.

Damn it why couldn't we start the year with Alabama A&M, Lamar, Presbyterian and Northern Arizona.

Another thing we got to remember is that our Schedule is the overall 3rd toughest in the country and our Non-Conf is 7th toughest. There are only 2 easy games on the whole schedule

A title run with 2 high school seniors that aren't even commited to us and three young guys that haven't played one second for Bama? You're not even halfway trying. Wish they would ban you for being the troll that you are.

Then we’re fricked. We need time to work shite out. Nate can’t flip a switch and change the world as tonight showed. We need cupcakes leading up to some decent mid majors or power 5 bottom feeders before the SEC. we don’t need a murderers row where we get our asses kicked and the guys get frustrated and throw in the towel.

You know the old adage about if you’re at a poker table and you don’t know who the sucker is, it’s you? That’s us and our schedule: we’re the “name” school the mid-majors are using to pad their resume’.

Nate Oats said the biggest reason Jaden Shackelford started vs. Penn was because Alex Reese (hip) and Beetle Bolden (hand) haven't practiced the last four days

We fought this game, so that's something to build on. My prediction was that we wouldn't make the tournament. If we just fight each game, I'll consider this a positive season.

I'm still going to bitch and hurt every game, but I'll calm down after an hour or so
