Sorry two separate statements.....the me too was about Xavier and the rest was wishing I was there today.
Can't really take much from exhibitions but it helps to peak the excitement of the new season.

All the sudden we're really deep now. I remember reading posts on here saying we weren't deep past our starting 5.

Also, Reese got a solid 5-7 minutes this game. If him or Q transferred after this year, I could see it being Q over Reese.

Surprised Q didn't play but doubt today's game is indicative of what the rotation might look like.

After this game, I'm thinking we're 9 or so deep, but there really is a big drop off at center without Maymon or Stokes. I know most teams are in trouble if their two starting big men are in foul trouble, but we would really be in trouble. Luckily, that doesn't seem to happen very often.

Yeah, I was surprised Q didn't get any minutes this game. Maybe he'll get some time in the next exhibition. Hm...Q might be in Coach Martin's doghouse - I feel like every other previous/likely contributor played, aside from Barton/Lopez who were injured. Chievous' absence was conspicuous.

I only watched the highlights but... how did Richardson look at point? I'm worried that Barton may not be a great distributor, more of a scorer, and McRae cannot be our point.

I don't think Richardson actually played point this game, and if he did, it was in the no scorer lineup we had out there, so it wouldn't have shown much. :p

I think Barton will be fine, and if he's not, Thompson did a great job of running the offense.

I was wondering about Q's lack of PT as well. You could be right about him being in the doghouse, since Coach Martin wouldn't go into any detail about it when asked by the media after the game.

Barton will be our point, if he's out Thompson is the guy, he got the start today.

According to Zo and the players they're excited to have Barton on the team. He pushes the pace of the offense and is an excellent passer, and defender.

Oh yea, the biggest thing maybe, this team is going to run. Zo was constantly yelling to push the ball, all those wanting more scoring should be pleased this year.

I've been saying this team is going to run!!!! Golden is the only reason we didn't run he always wanted to take his time even when he had numbers
