Texas v. Samford

[caryhorn]

We should see a victory tonight. And I hope some more ginormous dunks from our jumping jack freshman, Mr. Roach!! Should be an entertaining game. Go horns!

 

[Walking Boss]

Horn need a lot of work on their defense.

 

[caryhorn]

shaka giving lots of PT to the freshman. Lots of mass substitions (3+) coming in at a time when subs are made.

 

[caryhorn]

Love Yancey's hustle.

 

[caryhorn]

Wow. Samford already in the bonus. Not a good sign.

 

[caryhorn]

Talking to myself here. Anyway, nice first half by the horns. Shaka clearing the bench (nearly) to get everyone involved. Nice!

Holland’s Mr Productivity to start the 2nd half

 

[Dionysus]

Did Ridley break something there?

 

[uisge beatha]

Hope Ibeh didn't

 

[caryhorn]

NICE WIN. Shaka's bringing them along. 10-12 guys getting serious playing time. Should make them a better team by conference.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

Yes, the game experience (and not getting yanked for the first little mistake) should make them better.

But purely from a fan/entertain me perspective, this game was kind of hard to watch. Long periods of sluggish play punctuated by stretches where the potential really showed.

Hope it's all the recent travel and Smart playing lots of guys, BUT this team is tough to watch.... looks like last's years group with no improvement. Look like a 8 -10 team in conference!

Look like a 8 -10 team in conference!

I can't argue with this. I'm just hoping the P T results in creating experienced depth that can keep us in the games in the second half. We have talent, but it needs experience to develop.

 

[ProdigalHorn]

It's coming along. I think they may be ready to make a push by mid-conference. Not sure if a tourney bid is in the cards, but it's definitely not out of the question.
