WHO CARES?






GO BOBCATS

With what I’ve seen so far, I would find an intra squad scrimmage that was open to the public more entertaining and perhaps more telling. At least there would be a bigger sample size for me (yeah I’m being selfish) and my untrained eyes to see if my opinions on playing time in a couple of cases has something to it or is just off base. For instance, Kuany against BG appeared to be the only player on the floor who could match up (and maybe exceed) athletically with 2-3 of the BG players (Maybe Kelly too but he just had an off night). I know basketball is more than athleticism alone but he has been doing other things pretty well too IMHO.

Also, I did notice Towns’ antics after the game. I was watching him in particular at times and thought to myself that he seems to be controlling his emotions and maybe he now is a mature young man. I was giving him the benefit of the doubt. Near the end of the game however my thoughts began to change. He started hanging out near the Ohio bench with a little chirping during free throws, etc., and I’m thinking, no, he’s not matured and he’s going to ramp up showing himself. And, he did. Seriously, I do hope he soon learns to control his emotions.

Paveletze sitting out the game today to rest his knee.

Why is half of the conference playing similar games today?

Evans not in the game at all in the first half.

My gut says he's a good candidate to play for Fiami-Hamilton next season.

Did you know the Wendy's Meal of Misfortune hasn't been available since mid-to-late September?

7 players with double digit scoring that did not include Pavs or Hadaway.....

Jordan Fisher leading scorer!

Padded the 3 pointer stats today...remember that if you look up our season stats and think "maybe we aren't THAT bad" from 3.

Only thing real troubling from the box score is Jalen Breath with 5 turnovers, 0 points & 0 boards in 13 minutes.

Whiff in recruiting or just not developing once in Athens?

definetly its both. recruiting not up to par.players aren,t being fully utilized.

Really nice to see that our younger recruits can beat a branch campus basketball team. I know everybody does it now but I don’t remember back in the good old day scheduling games with branch campus basketball teams? Seriously, challenge yourself!

Why not keep it in the family and play OU-Z or OU-L or OU-C, or even OU-E or OU-SC? Maybe we could have a little play-in tourney in Athens, pit branch campus teams against each other, with the winner playing OU-Athens, as the main campus team gets a bye for the first round or two. Now that would be imaginative, out-0f-the-box thinking.
