He played well against a ranked Arizona team, thats it. We should be utilizing him more in the post.

Auburn isn't 7-0 for nothing. With Kansas losing, Auburn will obviously move up to number 1 if they win.

Don't see #1 happening here, but I think Duke is a terrible matchup for us. Brown and Malach can stonewall Broome in the post. Flagg is a hell of a swiss army knife - he's blowing up our defenses with trying to decide switch or not. We're also not a very vertically blessed team and they're just jumping.

I think we'd actually matchup better with Kansas or a Houston than them.

The behind the back pass on an inbound may not even be a top 3 retard play I've seen Chad make. Unbelievable

Good game @Rigby. @Chrishaune

Mad respect for Duke and Scheyer for the curveballs coming into the game. I know Jon gets a ton of shyt but incorporating Evans and Sion James as much as they did feels like it threw off the scout coming into it. I think Auburn focused on eliminating Kon, did a pretty good job of making shots tough for Flagg and really wanted to not switch to avoid the reality we got in the second half (Flagg on smalls), and that led to some huge miscommunications and guys like Evans often roaming free.

I don't think it's some huge negative takeaway for it for us. I'm still very discouraged by not having a second PG any given night. Glass ceiling on the team until that gets figured out

Bill gotta quit playing favorites man. If teams aren’t guarding KJ then bench his ass. If teams are forcing Dajuan to score than put Zeke as the 1 and have him run the offense.
