That's the new Patrick Keim


We got some legit walk-ons though. Myles Parker could get regular playing time at some SEC schools and Cook looks just as athletic as any of the scholarship guys. Blackstock and McCoy are solid for walk ons too

Not sure. I missed the first 10 minutes. I can't find anything on Twitter about him getting hurt.

Found a tweet. Bruce said he tweaked his ankle.

We need to eventually accept that Dunbar may be one of our best offensive players


He is ranked nationally in KenPom offensive efficiency at #32. Which is bonkers given how low his assist rate is

We have so many weapons on offense it's crazy. Spencer is probably the only guy that's not a threat to drop 20 on any given night. Pearl is a damn good developer of talent. Dunbar was raw athletic potential when he got here. Has me ready to see Purifoy.

Speaking of talent being developed, do y'all think Okeke could/would go to the NBA after this season?

Okeke is really good, but on 60 players in the world get drafted each year.

I don’t think he’s fully developed his potential, but he should at least go he evaluated.

Per twitter, Purifoy was told by coach to lose some weight a couple weeks ago because he is playing the 3. He said he's dropped from 242 to 230 in two weeks.

That's mostly water weight.

Daughty move to the 2 behind Bryce Brown?

1. Harper...McCormick
2. Brown...Daughty
3. Dunbar...Purifoy
4. Okeke...McLemore
5. Wiley...Spencer

That will move Doughty backing Harper at 1. Correct?

Nah. Although I think you could see him get some backup minutes at the 1 (especially if Mccormick struggles come SEC play) it doesn't necessarily mean his primary minutes will be backing up Harper at the 1. Doughty still has a little time to prove himself worthy of starting at the 3 over Purifoy after he returns.

My prediction is that by the end of the season the rotation will shake out like this:

1: Harper/Mccormick/Doughty 28/7/5
2: Brown/Doughty/Harper 29/8/3
3: Purifoy/Dunbar/Doughty 20/13/7
4: Okeke/Spencer/Purifoy 25/11/4
5: Mclemore/Wiley 20/20

Player-by-player that shakes out like this:
Harper: 31
Brown: 29
Okeke: 24
Purifoy: 24
Doughty: 20
Mclemore: 20
Wiley: 20
Dunbar: 13
Spencer: 11
Mccormick: 7

I think that's the best rotation to maximize rest and to give all these guys the role they best fit.

Ah ok. Thanks! Mclemore playing the 5 seems like a lineup when we are going small.

Q&A from 4* 2020 recruit Jayden Stone out of Anniston. Looks like Vandy is biggest threat.

Dropped from 242 to 230


That's not healthy. Likely a bunch of water weight and some muscle lost.

I'd go

1- 25/10/5
2- 25/15/0
3- 20/20
4- 25/10/5
5- 20/20

Doubt it is muscle loss

12lb isn't much for water weight loss

That's only 5% of his total body weight.

Watching Heron play against Georgia Tech. I don’t miss that pump fake one dribble mid range jumper at all.

Also, Georgia Tech should never be this bad. There’s no way this team matches their conference win total of 6 from last year
