I honestly have to say Cuonzo's crew looks good to me. I think it seems that we are in better shape, hustle more, and play better D and have improved in our shooting from what I observed in our first 2 games. McBee couldn't buy a bucket last season, now he is totally on fire. Props to coach Martin, I have a good feeling bout this season. :rock:

I cannot wait to see them play an elite team, like Monday against Duke. It will make their flaws stand out times 100 and we can see how good we really are.

I have been impressed as well, a lot of the young players are stepping up. I hope Hall gets it going soon.

I think Martin is doing an excellent job with this team, but, I'm very concerned about our lack of a post presence other than Maymon. That's not Martin's fault. He can only coach the players he has. Hall has been a complete disappointment so far this season and is likely to lose his starting position very soon.

I agree. We don't have a clue as to how good or bad we are until we play some competition. Let's hope.

This team will always hustle and give it their all under CCM or they won't be playing. That's just how Coach Martin's system is treated.

Wayne Chism isn't from Wisconsin. You obviously can't be the real Shuler for missing something that obvious.

They're lookin good so far, no doubt. Golden is lookin like an all conference guard too imo. Playing Duke and Pitt will def give us a better idea of where this team is at. Coach Zo doin work so far, keep it up!! GBO

That Memphis squad will tell us how good the Vol are also. I watched them the other day and they are about the quickest team I have seen in a while. And they have more depth and experience than what we saw last season.

It's a huge blessing to be in the Maui. Those won't only be great tests, but it will be on a big stage with the bright lights.

As others have stated, I think this team will work hard this year and will make us proud. My biggest concern is post play. As season drags on, you have to have guys that can score down low and help get some easy buckets. I don't see that happening from what I've seen out of our post players.

Memphis faces the same depth problems we have in the post. Tarik Black and not much else. Should be an interesting game. They have more overall talent than we do, but not much more experience.

They are always fast and athletic. That's nothing new.

Kind of reminds you of the good feeling after the Cincy game....we know how that feeling turned out.
