We all knew he was very athletic coming in as a true freshman, but I was pleasantly surprised as well watching the game highlight. He was flying and looked so effortless. I think he got to the next level with the offseason training. Kudos to Coach Marshall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His physique doesn't scream strength -- he's deceptively strong. My loose analogy -- James Harden. Harden doesn't look strong, but when he comes through the lane his strength is quickly apparent. Rob seems somewhat like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can show ballhandling and shooting skills (which he already has but just needs improvement), I don't see why NBA scouts wouldn't be interested in him. We're at the beginning of the season so we haven't seen his full offensive arsenal, but if he has steady improvement, I think he can jump to pro after his junior season. Looking at his recruiting profile, he was ranked at 78 in his class and classified as a PF. If he can be developed into an NBA wing (3 spot), he can be a tremendous selling point for Archie.

I assumed those guys were giving homer speak. Turns out they may be right. We seem to have found a good one with Rob! And his last name is so darn fun to say!

When Rob's name first surfaced, I watched several Youtube highlights and fell in love with his game. He's got matured game beyond his years...so savvy. IMO, he's got enough speed and quickness for college game, and hopefully he improves in that area the next few years AND/OR grows a few more inches.

rbkl Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 One stat that stood out for me: Freshman Romeo Langford: 13 points, 5 turnovers Freshman Rob Phinisee: 13 points, 0 turnovers Also notable was the fact that Damezi Anderson led all scorers while scoring all of his points in the second half.

If he can give us what Mike Conley gave OSU in his one season we're a serious FF contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SconsinHoosier Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 Hi all - curious if anyone is able to watch the game on BTN right now. According to my guide it should be on, but I’m getting BTN Football & Beyond in WI on all 3 feeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the only thing keeping me going was knowing it would end with me settling in with a nice scotch to see this team for the first time. Thanks BTN.

azhoosier Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 This is not acceptable. Why advertise the replay if you do not plan on showing the replay. To do this to the fan base of one of the major schools in your conference is a slap in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLHoosier Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 I guarantee someone thought the time change went into effect or something. The football program was scheduled to come on at 12, yet came on at 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
