I thought we looked pretty good, granted this is against Morehouse. I didn't see the first half either. But a few thoughts:

- Martin looks really in shape, and balled out tonight. Good be a good sign he's in for a big year.

- Mickey still blocking errthing

- Hornsby suprised me. Had a good looking jump shot and worked on defense.

- Quarterman is still well...Quarterman

- Robinson is a large human being

That's all I got

Really? Kid shot 40% from three at UNC Asheville. He can shoot.

Yea, I just meant suprised by his general game out there

The defense surprised me more than anything, and we was working off the ball and made a nice pass or two. Surprising, I didn't expect much form him.

He hit a three in the first half and looked pretty comfortable in general. I wasn't paying as close attention in the 2nd half.

He made a few bad plays at PG. A few ugly turnovers.

I saw that he made his first shot, a 3. That's encouraging.

We are bigger and stronger than last year. Offense will be fine, defense still needs work. Gave up 30 offensive rebounds and got out rebound by 15 against a bad swac team.
Mickey and Martin should be all-sec. Martin could be sec MVP if he was not so lazy on defense.
Gray is a real pg that looks like he can score if needed. Nice first step and sees the court really well.
Hornsby plays hard and will have some big 3 point nights and probably some really bad nights as well. Has a funny hitch in his shot.
Robinson is a huge man, but slow and sort of soft.
Patterson looked very good for a true freshman. He will play plenty of minutes.
Quarterman looks a little better. Plays hard and is quick and athletic.
Malone and Odo look the same as last year.
Bridge water is a undersized 4. Could contribute in a few years.

did Epps play?

No, not sure of the cause though

Much better on both ends of the court and the guard position. Gray huge improvement over Hickey Hornsby solid 2 with decent on ball defense to go with capable inside and out offense game. Martin much improved face up game. Mickey doing what Mickey does. Elbert no where near he needs to be to help this team. I see us playing lots of three guard with Quarterman getting big minutes. Martin and Mickey have obviously been told to try and create off dribble to help draft status. Neither are very good at it. We will be much better with uptempo smaller teams than bigger post up teams. Should be great season to go dancing...

If this team can Gel and get some of those defensive rebounds instead of giving up so many Offensive re's they will be SCARY GOOD! We have the size, depth, speed and Athletes to beat anyone on our schedule. Its all about putting it together and finding a true identity.

Martin is a beast
