November 8, 200619 yr I personally like the little guard from Modesto, he's a hard nosed player who can stroke the three. He should be able to earn some key minutes. I personally see him as coming out of kentucky as a Gret player in 3-4years.
November 8, 200619 yr I was 5 rows of the floor last night watching him getting the ball ripped by USC Upstate guys. Just wasn't impressed. I was also in the lower arena and noticed that he did lose the ball a couple of times. I also noticed that he was diving on the floor and that he can flat out shoot. I like his defense and his effort. He did appear a little slow for an SEC guard on the play when the ball was stolen from behind. Did you notice that play?
November 8, 200619 yr The first group didn't look too good with the exception of Crawford. Bradley making poor choices, and Morris looks lazy, and disinterested, but the second group of guys looked amazing, especially Stevenson, he will be awfully fun to watch. I also like the Porter kid he's tough nosed. I thought Bradley looked pretty good whipping assists out all over the place and stroking his shots. I thought Crawford looked like a ball hog a few times, but I was happy to see him be aggressive for a change. My biggest concern is that you could put Orbzut, Thomas, and Carter into one body and still not have an SEC post player. I would probably start the season with: Morris: C Stevenson: F Perry: F Bradley: G Crawford: G

I would probably start the season with: Morris: C Stevenson: F Perry: F Bradley: G Crawford: G :thumb: At first I was saying we should have Thomas starting at the 4, but now after watching Stevenson play I think we probablys should start Stevenson, and have Thomas coming off the bench. I honestly would rather not see Orbzut ever touch the floor this year unless he comes in during the last few minutes of a blowout win. Even if Morris gets into foul trouble I would rather just see us put Thomas in there or even another guard and just go small. I think having a good backup center is the one thing this team is lacking this year, but it is something that I think this team can overcome because we just got alot of players now that just seems like they know how to play the game of basketball this year...
November 8, 200619 yr I think it's far too early to start Stevenson. Keep him as a spark off the bench for a while...

I already stated my first five. My last five (the victory cigars) would be: Carter: C Obrzut: F Curry: F Bobby Perry's Cousin: G Porter: G (just because we need 5 in there)
November 8, 200619 yr I think it's far too early to start Stevenson. Keep him as a spark off the bench for a while... I think its far too late to start Thomas or Obrzut.
November 8, 200619 yr I think its far too late to start Thomas or Obrzut. I'd start Woo for the first 6-10 games...
November 8, 200619 yr I'd start Woo for the first 6-10 games... Well, considering that he can only play 2-3 minutes in the first half due to foul trouble, it probably wouldn't make that much difference, LOL.
November 8, 200619 yr I look for Tubby to keep the same line up for a couple more games before making a change. I think we will see the change either during the Maui Classic or right after. We have a special group of freshmen and Tubby knows it.
November 8, 200619 yr I'd start Woo for the first 6-10 games... I see your point about having Stevenson come off the bench to use him like a sparkplug for this team, but if we are going to do that I would rather see Thomas in there starting instead of Woo. But I know with Thomas's suspension that might not happen, because he probably wont go straight back into the starting lineup right away coming back from the suspension...

That's why I said Woo over Thomas...
November 8, 200619 yr That's why I said Woo over Thomas... :thumb: Well I wouldn't start Woo if it was up to me, but I just agreeing that is what probably will happen though because I dont see Tubby starting him now when he comes back...
