I agree with that especially since UK was not very good in the back court that year. Also, the game was at Robert Morris and Noel was out (probably the reason they missed the NCAA tourney). Even with Noel, that was the weakest UK team under Cal. This years team has FF talent.

Ahrens missed a ton of time this summer and only been practicing full go for a few weeks. He's not close to game ready. Don't know what we will get from him when he is back in game shape and skills honed, but I don't look at the guy we see on the floor now as the best Ahrens can be.

Where did i say he did? My comment specifically says that IF he leaves after 2 years (not that he won't chose to do so), it won't be to play in the NBA. I did not see him play live. There are maybe a half a dozen of their game recordings available online. He has potential (athleticism is...

Based on what I saw in HS and the Cedarville game, if he leaves after 2 years its not going to be to play in the NBA. Not that one game means everything, but not playing at all in the UC game was telling. Now, with Andre out for a couple of weeks, it will be interesting to see how much PT he...

I love what he brings to the team and he had a great all around game last night, but his offensive numbers go down when we start making some shots.

The thing is, the offense wasn't working that badly in the first half. Kaleb was getting their bigs in foul trouble trying to push him out of position. The problem we had was being a little too impatient (forcing some drives) and not making any shots (from the foul line or perimeter). They...

Thanks for the video. Not going to come to any stark conclusions based on one exhibition game, but the frosh looked pretty much how I expected. Carton is ready and while he will make frosh mistakes, looks like he should be starting soon. Liddell will have a significant role and probably best...

unfortunately no. I think for a medical redshirt you can only play in the first 1/4 of the season or like 8 games. If Diallo is only going to play in garbage time, you redshirt him. Garbage time isn't adding any more experience than practice time. On the other hand, you have no idea whether...

0 unless there is an injury.

Glorified scrimmage and no Diallo in the first half?

I am as excited as anyone to see what this years version of Kaleb looks like, but for a guy who didn't make one of the first 3 teams in his conference last year to be the 6th best player in the nation raises some eyebrows. Was Gassaway present for the UL scrimmage? Obviously we are all...

IT always takes some time to replace key cogs that have been in the rotation for 3-4 years. They are replacing Ward, Goins and McQuaid. Individually you might not think any one guy is that difficult to replace as they have guys that look capable of stepping in, but thats a lot of experience...

Seems reasonable. Enough questions to think we could be in the 10-30 range depending on how those questions get answered. We should comfortably be a tourney team with seeding dependent on things we just don't know yet. Preseason Bracketology has us as a 5 seed. MSU ranked #1 which wasn't...

Ahrens has been out quite some time (back injured over the summer) and still isn't playing. I'd say its maybe 50/50 that he will be back for UC.

Agree on the need scoring part. I think the offense goes through Kaleb or with Carton creating, so I don't know that we need a bunch of "scorers" (shot makers) per say, but we do need guys to be able to hit open shots and drive when the opportunity presents itself.

Well, that doesn't mean much without perspective. Is that percentage during inter squad scrimmages, does it include drills, some combination of the 2, who was defending him (none of the other 3s have been healthy). IIRC, Deibler would shoot over 70% in game simulated shooting drills in...

I think CJ will bring something that the team needs this year, but I think this article overplays the kind of role CJ had on that E8 FSU team. IT seems the main reason he transferred was because he felt as if he was losing playing time and would be beaten out the following year. Also, while...

Similar players, but Key is a little more mobile and Hugley is a little bigger and think he's a bit stronger in the post. I think Hugley is more suited to C.

I've seen a far number of people and publications predicting that Walker starts. If Walker starts, its hard to see Carton getting more than 20 minutes a game because I don't see them playing together that much. But, if DJ is clearly the best frosh in the league this year, I don't see how he...

I suspect Jalen Smith will be first team over Kaleb. Kid has skills and is very athletic and should get many more opportunities without Fernando. If Carton and Liddell are the 2 best frosh in the league, it should be a very good year for us.
