In other news, Kentucky has the most important football game in the history of the program on Saturday and it’s a home game! Be there, be loud, and be early!
After letting last night simmer, I have these observations.
-Diallo was good BUT our PG has to have assists for the team to be successful. That’s more on the team last night than him, he did his part to try and keep us in the game.
- Hawthorne should be no later than the second person off the bench. Franck cannot get more minutes than him. Defensive play maker and his offense will improve.
- Alex, Zoom, Ousmane, Malachi, Milan, M. Williams, B Hawthorne, and K Williams should be the only players that play. That’s the 8.
Well that’s part of the issue we had last night, we didn’t really have a PG 1 it seems. Our guards combined for 3 total assists.
I also understand that Franck last night was a necessity, I just don’t think that will ever translate to wins against Top 25 competition . I hope I’m wrong I just don’t think it will.
@JamesWi11047973@BrandoAKing In all reality though how many “proven” coaches are there that would be willing to leave where they are? Also what is proven? Final Four or better? Elite Eight?
Update Kentucky only had 13 assists. 5 was from Moreno. The guards combined for a total of 3. Not going to cut it. No movement in the offense. There was no offense in the offense actually. Zero rebounding. Better get it figured out quick or it’s going to be a long season.
Basketball game tomorrow, first big test. I think if Kentucky can have in the neighborhood of 18-20 assists they win. 15 or below and it’s an L. This team as with all Mark Pope teams so far has to share the ball to win.
I do wonder what we have been practicing? We haven’t guarded well, we aren’t passing well, there is no movement on offense. The best shooter in the country has taken 5 shots and we can’t get him open. Zoom has been great tonight though.
