Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

["It's Time"]

Basketball has always and will always be about making shots

 

[Orange Studs]

Ok headed over to the NC A&M game

 

[Smokeytom]

Couldn’t buy a bucket tonight. Happens. Just super frustrating it had to happen vs Bama.

 

[RikidyBones]

That was an awful performance.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Lol

What you saw tonight was a top 5?

Of course silly or it would be 0-0 lol

 

[kemotoe]

Fahr Barnes. He’s in over his head.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Alabama has been whooping our ass in TBA for years.

Wrong.

 

[Orange Studs]

That was an awful performance.

They went from looking like a top 4 team to just an average team in one game

 

[Power T-Rev]

Playing Keon at PG is helping develop him
Into a better nba prospect but really hurts this team


He must get out of that habit of turning his back once he gets into the lane. Limits him so much and he does it every single time

Nah. Hes 6'5. He should post up smaller guards

 

[Vols4us]

Bad night shooting and defending the 3 pt line. Learn from it and move on. Need Springer and Fulky healthy.

You were right about taking SV off point

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

No idea. TX maybe that blasted Kansas today.

Kansas was really overrated too. Gonzaga is the only elite team I’ve seen so far. Then there’s about 10-12 good teams. If they don’t get a bad draw in March I think they walk to the Final Four and will be really tough to beat.

He needs to drive and master the pull up from 10-12 ft... he could get 15-20 a night getting that down. He really does drive and immediately get into a post posture. No need for it.

Guess it’s a good thing this is basketball and not football. It’s ones game. Lmk how many teams have gone undefeated in the past 4 years. Hint: It’s 2 Witchita state and Kentucky and neither even won the tourney

Name 5 teams that are clearly better

 

[Weezer]

I'm sure rival boards are loving that loss. Especially sucky Kentucky.

 

[scvolfan7]

Hate that we lost to bama but this game should serve as a big time motivator. We coulda got back in that game but just didn’t execute

 

[Orange Studs]

A&M with an INT

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

BB is and always has been a weird sport...you have an off night as a team, and almost anybody can beat you. The great teams just have less off nights than others.

Agree that happens and hate that it had to be bama .

 

[JCP201]

Pons got in foul trouble and didn't play most the game, lost Springer to injury, sure free throw hitters couldn't make them, Bama was unbelievably hot and hit everything for a good while, and we still were within two scores with 2 minutes left to play. (Edit and Barnes got a technical)

We are going to be alright.

Its hard to name 5 teams that are clearly better. They're good but they're not elite. Kansas Baylor then its a crap shoot after that. This teams weaknesses were exposed tonight and im not sure they're fixable in season. We have no go to scorer, got beat off the dribble, and no primary ball handler, Vescovi is better off the ball.

 

[PYSCHO]

Nah. Hes 6'5. He should post up smaller guards

he can get his shot off easily. Just got to make them. Just a bad night. Fulk was bad and really bama defense was nothing just not falling. ankle roll hurt us to so you had to play 25 too much especially from behind. He is a liability on defense with quickness not there. Smart player just foot speed not there

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Petty can come back next year for an 8th season too if he wants to.

 

[pierce60]

Deacon Barnes seat hot yet? I say we hire Nate Oats since Barnes obviously can't beat him and Oats runs a fun offense.
