Should become more active in the coming weeks since there has been open practice. I'm not currently in the states right now, but one of the guys in our b-ball group on FB sent this pic

Mallette's dad just got an AD position at UofSC according to local sports radio.

Which SEC coach is most likely to get pissed and try to get a rule passed saying former and/or professional players can't practice with the current team? Sorta like when a couple coaches got sand in their vaginas when Saban had John Parker Wilson running the scout team, like that was some devious trick that gave UA some incredible advantage the next Saturday. LOL

In the running, if not leading, I give you Todd Golden.

Heard a lot about him. He's gonna be real good. Not sure if he'll be consistent throughout the season but the potential is there.

Damn he really is putting an emphasis on quicker decisions and swinging the ball. Go straight to 1:34. He does not want the ball on the court unless you're ready to attack.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Not gonna get any cheaper unfortunately but we also need bigger donations for a new arena. I'm definitely ready for a new arena. Last game I went to was Memphis at home in '23 and god it's just a bad place to watch basketball.

If you have ESPN+, Team Canada vs Georgetown right now. Aden Holloway is playing.

[Bammerboy321]

Canada hasn't shot for shit in the 2nd half, but Holloway's court vision is visibly improved. Two times he's pushed the ball upcourt and found the open man. He is quicker too.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Holloway going to the line. Nice drive to the basket.

I gotta say - Holloway really likes that scoop layup. It's not the most efficient but he does get a quick shot at the time - something Oats wants.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Holloway's looking good facilitating the ball. Still having troubles on D it seems.
