GW getting way too much at the rim, Barnes probably gonna be pretty fired up about that at half. Better offensively than the scrimmage against Indiana.

I know it's early and just one half of the first game. So not wanting to overreact at all..... But man Okpara looks very rough out there. Like he's never played the game a day in his life rough

Biggest issue . . . Is he looks really slow in all phases. Slow running the floor. Slow offensive moves. No offensive fluidity to his game.

Fair. I have some level of the same concern for a few on the roster. Looking forward to the Louisville game to see us against some at least slightly better comp

For this team to be good, Igor will have to stay out of foul trouble and be an offensive threat because Akpara is not that guy.

Okpara will be fine if he can draw fouls. Aidoo couldn’t and Awaka wasn’t a great FT shooter.

Okpara needs a lot of work for a junior. He looks like a freshman tonight.

Cade has 5 points…just imagine if he could average around 8-10 per game. That would be huge

Yep. He played like he was in slow motion the entire time.. Hopefully it's just nerves. Because he looks like a freak of nature but didn't play like it at all

GW has made some serious moves and shots. Gotta give’m credit. Well coached for sure.

They are quick to the basket. We are spread way out on defense which tells me they can shoot from deep or at least that's what the scouting report says. Might need to play off a little more in the second half.

He can against this competition…in the Sec do you think he can?

Can Carr, Mashack, JP, Okpara? (Kidding about Shack, but using him as an example because he’s kind of absent tonight)

He’s looked better than all those guys so far. So I’d say yes

Oh nice! I bet we will pull it off. Either way, def enjoy the experience!! The wife and I usually go to some away game just to see the town and a different arena. Not sure if you're from Louis/KY tho

Mixed results that half. GW played much tougher inside than us. I'm sure it's a conversation in locker room. Much to continue to work on 2nd half on the way. In CHRIST Alone
