Who is Butler?

I haven't seen a thread that really explains who is Butler. Butler is very young starting 3 Freshman, a sophomore, and a Jr. The 3 Freshman can play, but are inconsistent. Nored is the point and is quick and will guard your quickest player and slow them down, but will drive out of control into the lane, and is not a great shooter yet. Hayward is a 6'8" wing, who sometimes handles the point. He is too unselfish at times, but is a long 6'8" who can shoot the 3, drive, and rebound. Will remind many of Mike Dunleavy. Mack is a 6'3" wing who is best know as an outside shooter, and really sees the floor well. Howard is a 6'8" bruiser inside, you will think he can't play, but will end up with 18 and 10 if he doesnt get in foul trouble. Veasley is a 6'3" power forward. Will guard you best player and slow him down. He is limited player usually offensively. Butler got beat by Cleveland St. largely because they didn't guard Veasley and he couldn't knock down shots. Bench has seen limited minutes lately, but Hahn will hit 3s on you, and everyone is not good for 2-4 point most nights.
If Butler is lucky enough to win, you will blame the refs, and say you are better and should have won. It happens every time we play a big school. They can't figure out they lost. but did. Butler will have low turnovers, take good shots, and defensive will really defend you inside the 3 point line. We will not come and chase your quickness, just contest every shot, and get back so you don't easy lay-ups. You will hate us by the end. In warm-ups we will look like a JV team compared to yours. If the score is in the 50's we win, higher LSU wins

You guys are way to unathletic for LSU. CJ will jump over your 6'8" center.

Yeah I think under 127 is a fricking lock for this game.
Does this guy get a free Tigerdroppings t-shirt for being the first butler fan to join?

I think Butler wins regardless. They traditionally play very disciplined basketball and are extremely well coached. I think it may be close but we won't pull through in the end

Man, I thought our schedule was weak..... Yall haven't won a game worth a damn except Xavier.

If Butler had a football team, we'd kick the shite out of them

To say this about UNC in the 2nd round would be somewhat alright. To say this whenever we are playing a team we should beat is kid of dick coming from a fan IMO.

Geez a guy tries to introduce you to your opponent and you shot on him? What is that? Anyways, Butler does have a football team but we're DI-AA so yeah you guys would tear us apart. I hope to see a great game on Thursday.

Thank you for the analysis. I've been curious about how y'all see your team.

If Butler wins, it won't be by luck. They seem solid. Not world-beaters, but solid. They can beat us.

Good strategy, for the most part. We're OK inside, Mitchell is the real thing, and CJ can block shots, but he's weak against a storng physical player.
However, I think you underestimate our ability to drop the 3's. We can usually get a few no matter what, but sometimes we start dropping them from a variety of sources. If that happens, I'd guess game over.

Good move, we're better at the up-tempo game than people realize.

You're playing LSU, I hate you already.

You might be surprised at what we can do at the end of a game. No matter the score.

We never score that low.
