I'll be completely honest, I watched the first game thinking we were going to be horrible. Well, i am coming here to eat crow. I liked the way we played against Wofford. We played a lot more like a team, the ball and players actually moved. With TQ and Simmons the offense was always still, waiting on someone to make a move. I'm hoping that this team will sneak up on some people and provide us with some good basketball to watch.

I always look forward to reading the gameday previews. Anyone know if South will be doing them again this year?

Im sorry Geaux, I honestly don't have the time right now to be doing the previews.

Similarly to you, I was very pleased with the way we played Saturday. I think Mays may already be my favorite Tiger and Reath is the exact model 5 that this team has needed.

I think we will be better than last years team. Just have to prevent any more halfs like we had in the first half of the season.

Nobody cares enough to do a preview.

Thanks JJ and Aleva.

I would do one, but I already know I will get filled with downvotes.

They should beat SMiss and N Fla this week.
I want to see the games next week.
Robinson provides nothing in the games I've watched.
Reath looks good but until LSU plays someone that can guard him we don't know how good he can be. So far so good.
How will Mays handle better guard play, it's been awhile since LSU has had a point guard who takes care of the ball.

Southern Miss needed double OT to beat Tougaloo, an NAIA school, in their season opener. That's all you need to know.

Might be better than I thought, but a bunch of huge ifs about whether they can play well against legit competition.

Ifs:

Duop is the real deal.
Victor can stay out of foul trouble.
Mays needs to be better than advertised, and he may be.
Blakeney needs to be consistently good.
Epps & Sampson need to play up to their potential.
Bench is a huge question mark and ER will have to somehow be able to give some productive minutes each game.

Another huge question mark is whether Johnny Jones can be a capable coach and not lose the team like he did last season.

Let's make sure we add the women's in there too.
Really anxious to see how that's gonna go this year.

I care just enough, because we're ridiculously overpaying Fargas to ask if the women's team will be relevant this season.

Didn't North Florida beat us last year, or was that 2 years ago?

Reath will score some points. Long and athletic
Will block a few shots which was missing last year
He's a little light in the arse so the bigger boys will muscle him underneath and push him around a little

Mays is an incredible athlete. He will be fun to watch.

I thought for sure that the Philadelphia Union would get in the way of Basketball previews.
