Coward’s efficiency numbers are kind of absurd, even given the smallish sample size and competition questions. 59/39/83 shooting numbers for his career.
But I’d also be fine with Rylan. He was good for us a sophomore, and we need some big wings.

Obviously we shot obscenely well, but they just didn’t guard anyone.
It sort of reminded me of some of the bad Gottfried teams where we’d always complain about teams randomly getting hot against us. And a lot of it was because we made their shooters extremely comfortable from the opening minute of the game.
Same for last night. We were just walking into open 3s. You had these sort of fake contests from BYU players who were playing way off the shooter, etc.
Youngblood went 5-11 from 3 and can barely make a game recap.
I thought we had pretty good energy on defense too. Awesome night.

They got some severe home cooking tonight, and still they complain.
My favorite home cooking sequence was at the 8 minute mark of the second half when Cardwell literally tackled Holloway on a drive and then the refs had the gall to call one of their bullshite touch fouls on Broome the next trip down. Gotta protect that guy at all costs for some reason.

Philon, who’d been struggling pretty badly for a while, with a clutch run with the game tied 81-81:
Driving layup: 83-81
Drives and kicks to Dioubate who gets fouled: 84-81
Drives and kicks to Youngblood for 3: 87-81
Hits a 3 after the Dioubate and Youngblood scramble: 90-81
Dioubate and Youngblood had some nice moments there too, but Philon was involved in everything.
Needed it too, with the Holloway foul trouble.

Maybe this has been discussed already, but that game had some crazy numbers in terms of ball security, turnovers, etc.
Our five starters committed 1 turnover, combined. For the whole game. And all five starters played at least decent minutes (Cliff had 17, Jarin 21).
Sears and Philon combined for 15 assists and 0 turnovers, which are numbers you just never see.
We had 8 turnovers overall, 7 coming from bench guys. Jarin had the 1 turnover committed by a starter.
Incredibly efficient stuff from everyone, but especially the starting five. So good I'd be sort of questioning the defensive intensity if I was an Oklahoma fan.

Rounds 3-5 are prime spots for guys like Jam to be taken.
Happy he’s coming back, clearly our best RB this year.
But he wasn’t sniffing the third round, that’s a relatively high pick for a RB these days.

I haven’t even gotten to see it yet but Cliff, Nelson, Stevenson, Reid, and Sears is just a fricking weird starting lineup.
I get that overall minutes and crunch time lineups matter more than who starts, but Stevenson starting 4 straight games is also curious given how’s he’s played.

Sherrell was 1-9 in 10 minutes, fricking let it fly. 1-5 from 3.
In his defense, he also managed to grab 7 rebounds (5 offensive) in 10 minutes

Reid has an interesting skill set. He’s not there yet but his 3 point shot looks pretty smooth, and he could be a monster defender.

RB jumps out to me as the biggest need for an upgrade, even if it’s not the most important position group.
re: Milroe - a softer perspective.

What a weird game. *Outside of all the turnovers*, that was about as good as Milroe gets. Some legit great throws (including the dropped TD).

Milroe was terrible, but we really want to put Ty Simpson in with this group?
CJ Dippre is probably our 3rd best skill player behind Williams and (massive gap) Bernard.
Shocking lack of talent. How do we not have a RB?
Deboer was awful. Terrible decision after terrible decision. This isn’t excusing his (or Milroe’s) performance.

I just can’t believe how bad these running backs are. Unreal.

Milroe and Deboer were awful, but our talent does somehow seem pretty underwhelming outside of Ryan Williams.
Justice Haynes must run a 5.1 40 yard dash, for example.

The Booker personal foul and the no defensive PI call were “we feel bad for Georgia” calls

Georgia should be still running the ball but that was bizarrely slow paced.
That ain’t gonna work unless you shut Alabama down completely going forward.

Miller knocked that dudes helmet off. Brutal way to give up a touchdown.

People have discussed it a ton already, but the list of guys that would *obviously play solid minutes for basically every team in the country* just goes on and on.
The no explanation needed guys:
Sears
Nelson
Wrightsell
Omoruyi
Stevenson
You could really include these guys in that list:
Youngblood (could easily start)
Mallette
Holloway
The top 25 freshmen *always play* list:
Reid
Sherrell
That’s already 10 guys. Ridiculous.
Imagine your 10-13 guys being Dioubate and two top 50 recruits.
I would guess the likely starters come from this group: Sears, Wrightsell, Youngblood, Reid, Nelson, Omoruyi.

Clemson even played pretty well in the second half, and we just answered every single time.
Stevenson himself hit 3 threes in the second half.
His first one came right after Clemson had cut the lead to 49-47. His second came after they’d cut the lead to 52-49. His third came right after they’d cut the lead to 62-59. All huge shots - most right after Girard had made a 3.
Over the last 13 minutes we never lead by less than 3, even though Clemson cut it to 3 a bunch of times. Answered everything.
