Looks beautiful. I went by it the first game of the season. Cannot wait for it to be completed.

Really wish we'd shit or get off the pot on a new arena.

I didn’t get to see the game yesterday due to prior obligations, read into that supervision of a high school game. When I do watch, I get so frustrated with our lack of defense, it drives me crazy or crazier. I’d just like to see somebody, anybody stop the ball when the opposing team drives to the basket, someone slide over and play help defense and rebound. We do not do any of those things very well and a lot of time no at all. Personally, I’d rather score 50-60 points a game with outstanding defense than to average 90+ and rely on the offense being hot or cold. Just my opinion.

He's a sarcastic asshole. Appreciate it when you see it in spite of the annoyance. It's all a joke.

This! I'm definitely the sarcastic asshole and I owe up to that 100 percent. But doesn't mean I'm actually make fun of you. I was just laughing at the situation

Sleeping alone for a living is novel...

Not I. We lived through those days under Grant, and they were miserable. Florida is showing you can play at our pace while being elite on D. Just have put more emphasis on bigs and find a good defensive assistant to do it. Alabama was a very good defensive squad in '22-'23 and in '20-'21.

I just think it's time for the Brian Adams experiment to end and Oats find a defensive coach in the college ranks.

Scoreboard and stats rarely tell the full story.

I will throw in there the record also does not tell the full story either.

I just post my opinion with what I'm seeing as it's happening. Maybe that's why people say misinterpret the game threads as to what I'm saying. I'll literally make a comment about poor defense or poor shot selection as it's happening, then others will come back later and be like "wow dude we literally won by 50". Scoreboard and stats rarely tell the full story.

It would be nice to chat with others during the game, but I understand life happens and/or not everyone wants too. I haven't been able to comment on every game because of I'm a newly proud dad of twins or military duties. Regardless, I don't judge people who do or don't post in game threads. I'm not posting with the hope I'm the only one in here (or talking to myself). Would like for others to chime in from time to time.

This comment just rubbed me the wrong way.

Consider the source and move on....

I don't want the Grant years back at all but I would like to see us play better defense.
