    Not tryin to burst the bubble here but did you watch him play in the first half? Defensively he was having a really hard time. Not nearly strong enough yet to get through screens. Love the threes and the hustle though.

    He had a couple steals and was feisty... i didnt see his weakness. Thats why he was in because hes earned it defensively. Now if theyd give him the damn ball...wed see some things

    We need offense. I understand that he may be an occasional defensive liability, but that will come with more game experience. I don't think he warrants 6th man status but getting him 10-12 minutes a game to see how he can handle it, it couldn't hurt as we've been anemic on O.

    10-12 mins for ADV at minimum ! The dude bring energy and scoring punch off the bench. I think 15-18 mins might be worthy. He's listed at 6-5 190 lbs. NO WAY he weighs 190 lbs. 170 lbs max and he needs to gain some weight. I say send him up to hang around with Hoke and he'll gain weight quickly...

  • It is always good to get a win in the BIG. We still have many of the same issues offensively, but the guys picked it up on D the second half and that made it a fun game for all. Scott is improving and becoming the complete player we recruited. Foul shots were Outstanding! Good to see the bench get in and the starters seem to enjoy that they got to play as well. Team chemistry seems to be okay, now if we could just get some offense. ADV may need to play more to force the other side to loosen up on DT. He struggles on defense, but a lot of teams have shooters who struggle on D. If this team could get a win against IU or MSU, IMO they would prove to themselves they are ready to make a run in the tourney. I'd rather have our problems than Tubby's! The golphers are anything but golden.
