1) Patterson over gray. He controls the ball better and is steadier. Let him learn on the fly. Also, less minutes for gray hopefully means less turnovers.
2) Don't play Robertson unless you have to. His feet are way too slow right now. Darcy played some good minutes tonight, and Odo will be scrappy.
3) I know TQ went off, but keep him on the bench for a spark.
4) Try to get Epps some minutes. I like what Bridgewater has given, but he is not quite tall enough to guard the big boys successfully. Epps give us a taller option and he could help us out towards the end of the year.
5) Find out what is wrong with Martin.

GEAUX TIGERS!!

In 2 SEC games. Martin is shooting 30% and averaging 8 points 6.5 rebounds. And he's fouled out in both overtimes.

He has been more of a ghost the first 2 SEC games. Fouled out of both.

He bullied the smaller teams, but is struggling against top competition

Relax. Martins the best player on the team. He will get it back going.

No, I think it's pretty indicative of his play going forward.

Martin has limited game against top competition...it's showing. But he is young.

So you think he will average 8 points on 30% shooting for the rest of SEC play?

I actually think that Johnny Jones is doing a good job rotating the guards. (His 1's and 2's)

Patterson is getting around 25 minutes a game
Hornsby is getting around 33 minutes
Gray is playing around 29 a game.
(These are a rough estimate looking at the past 4-5 games)

What I think is that going forward is that Patterson and Gray should split time at point, with each playing 4 when Hornsby is on the bench. Quarterman needs to play 3 most of the game.

Judging from this game, it looks like Malone is our best option coming off the bench down low. He may not be very quick but he seems to hold his ground fairly well down low. Elbert Robinson looks like a freshman who needs a little more time to catch up to the pace of the game.

Maybe more like 10-12,. He needs to stop shooting 3's period.

The idiots that are surprised by this don't know the game. This kid has no offensive game. Garbage buckets and dunks will not come easy against decent teams he can't score facing up and he can't score with his back to the goal. That doesn't leave much options.
