-  It’s fun to win.

-  It was good to see Tyler Roberson (10 points and 10 rebounds) and BJ Johnson (19 points 8 rebounds) get a chance to show what they can do. Someday they may be our two forwards and we need them to get enough playing time without fear of being yanked to get their confidence.

-  Matt Park said that Chris McCullough had career highs win points and rebounds. That’s pretty easy to in your first game. But opening with a double-double, (16 points, 11 rebs), is certainly a good start.

-  Rakeem Christmas dominated inside, as he should have, with 21 points on 8 for 13, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks.

-  Trevor Cooney opened with a quick lay-up  and wound up 5 for 7 from the fields for 12 points. What’s significant is that he was 1 for 2 from the arc and 4 for 5 inside of it. That’s what we need: be a scorer, not just a shooter.

-  Chinoso Obokoh got to play 11 minutes and scored his only shot attempt, got 4 rebounds, a block and 3 steals. That’ pretty impressive. I think JB’s use of McCullugh at center may have been because Chino is still coming back from his injury, not because the was too inept to play. I think he’ll be our back-up center, at least until DC returns.

1-0 with 30+ to go. (Hopefully I won’t have to change the rhyme for a while)

LET’S GO ORANGE!!!!
