Been Outscored by 21 points from the 3 point line. That cannot happen in modern day basketball. Year after year…it amazes me we can’t find a bona fide shooter
-
Same story….different year. Still can’t shoot.
-
We should win this game...but need to be focused and not take them lightly.

2024 PG Daquan Davis Commits to Florida State

Pretty sure Grant Gelon went 7/10 from 3 in a workout and Crean offered him on the spot -
Long ways to go...I think Banks has further to go. Lets not sugar coat this (not you specifically) but the progression of Banks and Gunn are imperative for this team. I for one, am counting on at least 1 to make a significant sophmore leap...however, forgive me if I'm a little unsure of both. We've seen marginal sophmore jumps from several players in the past whom are now at different programs. Right now, I trust freshman Cupps more than these two to make the right play. Lets see what happens but I will be rooting tremendously for both to have an outstanding year.

Good first test. FGCU is not a typical first game of the season opponent. They're tough and Chambers is a good coach. With that said, expecting a 15-20 point win. Woodson and the guys will be focused.

Recruiting violation? Tipton is not affiliated with the University or Program. -
Quite frankly, we haven't converted many open shots for the better part of a decade now and unfortunately, I'm not sure this year is going to be much different. I think the shooting (specifically free throws and 3 point shooting) will be a glaring issue much like we've seen in recent memory. A Dalton Knecht would've slid in nicely for this team...Regardless, no sense of wondering about "what ifs." We'll see what happens.

Galloway disappointed. I think Galloway is what he is. Plays tough D, low volume shooter…etc. I’m not sure we’re going to see a major jump in his play. He’ll make some good plays. I’ve always viewed Galloway as a 6th or 7th man on a really good team… As others have mentioned, the shooting and lack of 3 point attempts is concerning. I watched the game from start to finish. We need to improve a lot…good teams would whip us based on the play today. Luckily we have an another exhibition to hopefully fine tune ourselves more…

Obviously a better 2nd half after an abysmal 1st half but expected more. We need to be tougher and my concern with this year's team is we're 1 or 2 shooter's short if some of our 2nd year players don't make bigger strides. Free throw shooting and 3 point scoring could be a consistent theme this year regarding needing improvement (much like prior years). On a positive note, Mgbako looked real aggressive in the 2nd half and Cupps played very sound defense.
-
Understand this is the first game of an exhibition but I expected a lot more. This was down right bad and somewhat concerning. Lets see how the 2nd half plays out but we have a tremendous amount to work on. OH, and we look like we lack toughness.

That’s game. Sit that kid out for the rest of the game.

Keep in mind he had a very unfortunate and tough upbringing and young people do grow up. -

He was a very good player. Tough and an excellent rebounder for his height, as I recall. -

Yup. Very nice work by Liam. -
Agreed. Goodness…It’s a misdemeanor at Taco Bell that more than likely will resolve itself.
-
Certainly understand…and agree about not listening to the police. Again, suspect CMW will use this as a teaching moment and Mack will learn and come out better for it.

I agree, but there could very well me more to it. We need to keep in mind It’s the Taco Bell on Walnut. I went there when I was a student. If any poster is not familiar with the particular Taco Bell on Walnut, I would encourage you to read their reviews. I would be really surprised if Mack just decided to be rude to these employees.
-
It’s probably the Taco Bell on Walnut…
-
As Ant Wright tweeted…Did the Taco Bell people think Mack was just some random 6’8” dude from Gary?
-
Bingo.
-
I’m sure Woodson will handle this internally… Mack will learn from this and come out for the better.

Touché. Thanks to the FG kicker missing a FG he probably makes 99 out of a 100 times.
