I love the new unis. They look great.
I hope people are patient with this team.
I hope Wigginton can be a physical guard, a la Stinson.
You can still run and space and crash the boards. I don't think we can play like we have for the last few years and have success. I think with Lard and Young, we need to become a Frank Martin crash the boards type team.

It may not change in terms of running and spacing, but it's likely to be more twos and less threes (and more free throws) coming from the same sets. That's fine too, as part of the reason that we saw so many runs, both ways, is the streaky nature of a 3 based offense.
Randy P comes up with his typical journalistic trash and writes about Wigginton leaving after 1 yr. I wonder how he brought that up yesterday
Randy can't help but bring up topics that have nothing nothinh to do with the present
Prohm strikes you as a guy that blows smoke up everyone's ass? Not sure I remember him doing that.
On media day, yes, just a touch of smoke. I'm not naive.
I'm sure he wants to get to 80, and maybe he can, but that doesn't mean he'd bet on it.
Talley, Wigginton, Brase and Lard are the 4 names he brings up for newcomers who can make an immediate impact
When has anyone ever just stepped in and played middle linebacker?
Prohm and company know more about this than I but I have a hard time imagining space and pace with Lard and Young on the floor at the same time. Maybe it's just that we've seen so much small ball in recent years with just one "big" on the floor at once.
Young Cameron looks fit and jacked and I look forward to seeing him go to work in the paint ... but I bet at some point in his life, a coach has yelled "Move it, Lard ***" at him.
(Also, I'm not a huge fan of the stripes on the side of the jersey; they almost make it look like and animal print.)
Agree. I'm just surprised because he didn't have to bring that number up at all. That must be something they think they can at least shoot for.
I think that you are basing it off of the "animal print" look in the background, but it just looks like that because the shorts and jersey's are directly next to each other
To me it sounded like his goal is always 80, no matter what team/personnel he has. Not necessarily an assessment of this team, but a number he throws out there every preseason.
