It will evolve.

Probably 5 years to play 5 up to age 24.

I mean most are. If they are legit pro level, they are getting paid very well. The euro pro guys that are coming over here are not greatly different than high level high school players mostly. Their system is different over there but being “pro” isn’t the same as it is here. Hell most of the “pro” euro guys that play college aren’t even on the senior team.

That was an impressive display of hustling defense.

If we are going to make noise, it will be because of defensive hustle, not outscoring teams in a track meet.

The Euro pros that get paid a ton are the dudes that had a former NBA stint or significant experience. The homegrown rising kids and college kid imports are busting their asses for very little for 9 month seasons.

I am very disappointed no credible basketball junky is poking holes through the Euro pro red herring

Yep. Most of the euro pro players that are playing in college are essential full time AAU players. They rarely are actually playing at the highest level available, it is a developmental farm program.

Today was a good day. I’m 40 and the last time we beat UF in Gainesville I was 11.

Bama played a failed pro player and still lost at home.

Off to bed I go.

Huge win. Didn't watch, but it seems Hall was unstoppable for a half.

Looks like Murphy was really good.

Looks like Overton has a good all around game.

We shot our FT really well.

Defense has really improved! That's encouraging.

Need to get Texas this week. @UT gonna be tough, but they aren't great. Alabama @home is gonna be huge. Then Vandy and @Arky. Whew.

Would have been tied for first with wins over 3 of the 4 others at 5 - 2 and no losses. That was massive change based on the blurry best photo available. Yes we gave it away in a 28 second span of complete ineptness to be in that position but AU should have easily won that game.

Yes they should have but did not.

Bucky Ball won.

He was the last P4 coach hired and inherited one player unlike Pearl who recruited every player on the team before the hire. Bucky leads the SEC in winning and in IQ. He autisticly chews on raw zone formulas for breakfast....Lil Pearl has a nice staff.

Jang does not believe Bruce when he says he was just overcome with the desire to retire when he did. Jang believes Bruce planned this all along.
