I expect Bacon to ascend and prove he's worthy of being a top 10 pickreally curious to see how that game plays out
Random College Basketball Thoughts: 2016-17
- Thread starter str8up
- Start date
I like our team, we got a nice Lil squad that could make some noise. Keep playing D, we got depth, and our freshmen are some ballas that play D. Bacon keeps playing like he's playing and Issac finds his groove that could be dangerous.They keep sleeping on our boys in this thread...cant wait for the awakening
Yup, Ham finally figured out that a uptempo system with platooning is the best way forward..Also helps that this is his most talented team in his career so hopefully our momentum continues from this year with recruiting
We always had D and athletic players with length and as you say we finally got some talent, basketball talent. Bacon, Issac, Forrest(son of a coach), and CJ Walker(pg from Indiana) that's a nice base for the future. I know Bacon will be gone but unless Issac turns it up a level or 2 he should come back and develop some more. If he turns it up like he wants to be 1 and done, then that really benefits this team this season and post season time.
As for Bball recruiting I don't really keep up with it like FB, but we landed some nice recruits already and had 1 big time recruit visit this past weekend for VT game. We're going against some big dogs to get him but we got some stuff playing in our favor like, his dad played at FSU for FB and he played travel ball with Issac.

nikkas gone be sleep on Cincy. This is their best team since Sean Kilpatrick's last year, maybe even better. Remember the name Jacob Evans. He's 6'6" with handles, athleticism, and can shoot.
No doubt, if we land Kevin that will be a big get for the program. Gonna be interesting breh hopefully we come out on the winning end come Tuesday..One of the biggest regular season games in history for the program.

i won't li, as a duke fan, i'm very skeptical/scared about this game especially if amile can't go. Harry and marques' help defense has left alot to be desired. May need jeter and even vrankovic to help with size in the middle. if amile is out, and jayson has to play the 4, then I'm not sure who's going to guard bacon. It may have to be kennard, but he has horrendous lateral quickness/strength. we're going to have to out offense you guys to win, so i'm hoping grayson at the point will keep finding shooters and that he can have a another unlv type scoring game himself.

duke for knox
He's going to Duke
I feel pretty good about this game, we got to play good defense, and make smart decisions with the ball. Need a collective effort from the starters and bench with scoring. It's time for Issac to get loose and XRM need to limit his fukkery. Not too confident in our big men.
Chill out man, we need him more than any of y'all. We can't never have nice things.

Why couldn't it work out. A huge gamble blows up in our face.
