Inner-esting.

LGO. Time to take back the top of the standings.

I guess it's a good thing that he likes us without even mentioning Swider.

highly doubt GT or Clem will be sniffing the bubble this yr - actually think Wake is more likely than either of those two

Clemson still has some good talent on that team but does it ever matter with Brownell? Probably not.

 

[DonLightfoot]

Boy, Andy has been high on us since late summer. Hope his crystal ball is right.

Pundits are fast asleep on Cole Swider. He’s a perfect system fit for this program.

Pundits are so sleeping on Cole Swider. He’s a perfect system fit for this program.

Teams won't be able to double Buddy off a high screen like Houston did with Cole setting the screen.

I’m concerned we’re going to crumble against full court press of a physical team. Battle for Atlantis will be good measuring stick

Having a 2nd elite shooter on the floor with length will be a huge factor, especially if Jesse can present as an interior scoring threat - he doesn't have to put up big numbers, just present as a threat.

But I think we will see much more of Cole sliding to the weakside wing when Buddy has the ball as opposed to setting screens for Buddy. This will spread the floor and make the team much more difficult to defend. On the other hand, we will have to be able to deal with heavy on ball pressure to get into those sets.

I don't disagree with where we will see Cole. Just that we will have that option this year. Something we didn't have last year.

Have we done that precious years? Crumble?

If I were king, Jimmy would be setting those screens and flare to the 3 point line (rather than roll), Jesse would post/hold on the low blocks, JG would slide to the strong side corner, and Cole/Buddy will set up on the weak side wing. Of course, I'm more of a Court Jester.

It's good to be king... just for awhile

I think Katz is so anxious to rid himself of the disloyal idiot moniker that he is just kissing up to JB.

Yes, this is the question.

High-pressure M2M D, we will need to be ready for...

 

[oTTo113445]

Couldn't hurt to try a little Buddy Jimmy and Cole bringing the ball up the court together in a triangle with joe or sy just over halfcourt.

Just don't back down.

this team gives me 2010 vibes.
lost some key players from the previous year (both s16 teams). flying under the radar. got a key transfer. and the pieces just fit together and everyone complements each other. just stay healthy!

SHOOT IT DOWN!!!!

 

[Sherman20]

That’s about right. I think we have a real shot at being among the top four. ND could sneak into the second group.
