Hunter goes up to dunk, George fouls him, his first.

TV timeout.

Since George has limited fitness, I can't understand why he sits at the start of each half. If he started, he could rest between the 16 and 12 minute timeouts, and between the 8 and 4 minute timeouts of each half. He'd play 24 minutes that way, never more than a few in a row; he's averaging a little under 20 minutes as it is.

These guys lost by 13 to Tennessee and 12 to the Tar Heels. That makes our effort thus far very impressive. This is not a bad team.

78-63, 3 minutes left
