Good thing hbu sucks at freethrows

Gonna be an interesting season my friends...
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Really need one of the Brandon's to pick things up. Those are honestly our only two playmakers/scorers right now. I like Luther's game, especially against the zone. Coleman can create shots, but too many turnovers. Good defense overall...I like Jeter. But wow this offense is ugggly.

That was a slog. Man, maybe the media was right putting us at like #90 in the country. We look like dogshit at home. Not promising.

We'd have to improve to get an NIT bid. Which I think we can, just not pretty to watch right now.

There's no way defensive rebounding is going to be a consistent problem for this team, is there?

We're holding them to 25% from the field and 12% from 3 so far. I know it's Houston Baptist, but that makes me feel ok. Shooting poorly happens. BWill won't be 1-10 every game.

Hack-a-Jeter is gonna be a standard Pac-12 temptation.

Not making excuses, but when the other team misses as many shots as they have, they'll pick up more offensive boards.

Why is DD still behind Smith and Barcello? It doesn't take long to see he's a lot better. Is it because he's a freshman?

He quietly played very well. I'd like to see him be a little more aggressive on the boards...especially on the defensive end with blocking out. But a nice solid workman's effort from him tonight.

Is Smith better defensively? I know he's good on the glass but I don't see much from him other than that. I haven't seen enough of DD to make a judgement on his defense.

That has always been Millers way. DD certainly looks like he can play... if he improves on d in practice I'm sure we'll see more
