Noah Williamson is suppose to look lost and slow at this point lol! Can we allow guys to get acclimated to our playing style and conditioning? I can assure you...it's not going to happen overnight for some.
Guy who was watching played college ball. It wasn’t a “hey he showed flashes but clearly isn’t in shape or familiar with the system” type of criticism. Basically whoever he was guarding went right at him and scored easily every time, and the body language of everyone else on the court when he had the ball or was guarding someone reflected some frustration.

Both videos from the discord. Apparently Bethea had a rough day today a lot of his shots were rimming out and he was getting frustrated.
I wasn’t able to make the camp this year but I can confirm from someone who is there. TBB is going to make a huge impact on both ends.

He also said that Williamson looks absolutely lost and extremely slow. Hopefully it’s just a new system and he’ll adjust but he said he looked “practice squad bad”.

Our frontcourt is going to be razor thin if he can’t contribute any meaningful minutes.

All of Twitter is saying Caleb Holt is visiting today.
Going to Prolific Prep, where Holloway, Sherrell, and Reid all went.

Yup, I’d say the key to this team is Sherrell toughening up a bit on the boards and getting a lot better on help defense.
Sherrell is a good rebounder. He averaged 13.0 boards per 40 minutes, behind only Cliff at 13.6 and Mo at 14.8. We've just got to keep him healthy and out of foul trouble. I think TBB will help a lot here.

I love how some on the OT cannot fathom that there are people who make a lot of money and buy expensive things with their high income.
It's not really this at all. I know what the median household income is in my CDP (which feeds the local school). I know I make more than that, have the advantage of a mortgage payment that's based on pre-2020 craziness, and utilize the local public schools (which are good). Given that and the proportion of families in the area who clearly live well above our standard (i.e. constant vacations, kids in private schools, two new $80k+ vehicles, etc.), I can only conclude that 1) many of those families are saving almost nothing; 2) more people are living on inheritance than I ever realized; or some combination of 1) and 2).

I'm no scientist but how could the center of the earth, which is just short of 25k miles in circumference, be only 4k miles to the center? Wouldn't the center be 12k miles or so deep?
Circumference = pi * diameter
25k = 3.14 * diameter
Diameter = 8k

Radius (distance to center) = diameter/2
Radius = 8k/2
Radius = 4k

All the people complaining about no mega market team being in the finals can get bent. That game was cinema.
It's because [Trump][Elon] was only in it for himself and his masters, he never really cared about the country. And once [Elon][Trump] figured that out, their partnership went south. Now [Trump][Elon] needs to hold his ground and don't let the other back him down. Ultimately [Trump][Elon] is in it for little guys like us and isn't controlled by the shadowy puppet masters who control everything currently, and we need to support him unconditionally against rats like [Elon][Trump], because he's the only thing between us and certain doom.


Choose your own adventure.

Couple videos posted in discord of practice. Bristow defense looks really good. Williamson is a step slow.
This is about the time of year last year when the staff realized what they had in Philon.

Good to know about Bristow. If he can give us Mo D minutes and effort with his athleticism, we should be in good shape as long as everyone else stays healthy in the frontcourt.

That's probably the only place you'll find any talent this late in the game.
That Jihad dude from Arizona State is still in the portal and would be a great fit. Probably too expensive though.

They did it during one of the camps, lots of folks wandering through then.

And Sherrell at the 5, insists he is now a tad over 7'0 and 250 lbs. He said the common listing of 6'10", 220 is wrong
He was definitely 7'0" in shoes last summer. I watched him get measured in the locker room.
Big play there by JL. Gotta score some runs now.
Bottom half of the order of a bad ACC offense and our ace is just giving them bases. Man.
"This is a VERY good Alabama bullpen."

Haha what
LMAO the coach interview curse is inevitable. 5-3.

Be very curious to see how we approach the pitching decisions. Miami was not a great offensive team this year.
