UT vs Xavier

Not sure if you guys did a game chat for basketball as well, so here's a thread in case not. KidB's thread about defense is depressing. So I thought I'd make this.

I'm pretty ****ing excited about this game.

Actually, it's going to be a great day of college ball.

 

In this [itch bay]

 

I'm ready. Let's hoop.

 

I'm amped for the start of the season. I expect big things

 

I think we've got a pretty good squad.

 

I'm thinking minimum 110-35 win tonight. Depends if we call off the dogs or not.

 

You do realize that Skylar McBee and Tyler Summitt are no longer on the team right?

 

my bad, 140-35, in that case

 

First gm away. Pretty exciting.

It's only been two gms but thoughts on Thompson?

 

I think he's got skill but he's gonna have to learn to move his feet and quicker guards will give him trouble. Also don't really see him (at this point) being a PG that's going to beat his guy off the dribble and get into the lane. Seems to be a smart player though.

 

That's more accurate.

 

Over/under on FTA? 55?

 

Got it. Do you see the potential to develop into that "PG" having the ability to penetrate and score or feed?

 

ah. I don't know. I'm not the greatest prognosticator of talent, but he looks 2-guard to me.

 

Ha! The one thing we need. Like already we don't have enough off-guards. Oh well, work through it and see what if any "cream rises to the top"

 

64-60 Tennessee.

 

I feel like a pointer sister. I'm so excited

 

Less than an hour away.

 

Let's do this.

 

Genuinely fired up. Son just threw on his new hoops kicks and started dribbling.
