IT’S BACK 🏀

@TheFieldOf68 Opening Day Marathon returns on Monday, Nov. 2nd at midnight ET 🔥

16 teams. 8 games. 24 straight hours of hoops.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@NoEscalators Posting this at 12:27 am is almost as bad as me seeing it at 12:27 am.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Boswell is 6-2 with a 6-7 wingspan, per the combine. Smith is around 6-2 with around 6-8 wingspan, per measurements from *not* the combine.

I get why you disagree, I might be wrong, it’s happened before. I didn’t think Darius would be what he was last year. Very real chance it’s the same with Jordan.

Just giving an opinion.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Ky Boswell averaged 12 ppg. 4 rpg and 3 apg the last two years, was an ELITE defender and leader for a team that made the Final Four.

My guess is the raw numbers will be higher for Jordan Smith (Arkansas will play at tempo, Illinois did not) but IMO comparing Jordan Smith to Ky Boswell is a compliment.

Jordan duplicating senior year Ky as a freshman would make him a top five impact freshman in the class.

[pinto @pinto479]

This idiot @RobDauster compared Jordan Smith Jr to Kylan Boswell 😭😭😭😭. Yall give anyone a platform to talk ball…

OFFSEASON GRADES: ARKANSAS

I absolutely love Jordan Smith because he’s all about WINNING!!!

So my grade was higher than @RobDauster!!

To enroll early? For sure. To expect them to impact this season the way they would if they enrolled next season? Nope. Look at all the kids that have reclassed. Cooper Flagg is the outlier. Elliot Cadeau is the more standard career arc in college. Rough first year, frustrated fans in what should have been his freshman year, explodes as a junior.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@AllenFO37317233 Senior year Ky vs. Freshman year Jordan is 100% a comp worth discussing.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Strong, quick, tough. He’d guard ones. He’d guard fives. He switched on to JT Toppin when he was going off against Illinois and slowed him down.

Remember, he got to Arizona at 17. It’s hard for kids that young. It’s why I’m bearish on all the reclass/young Euro guys, including Spears, Kusturica, Boumjte-Bounjte.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@HasselbackHog You kinda look like Will Ferrell if he bleached his hair blonde.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Honest question: is it even possible to rage bait dick ride?

Isn’t rage baiting the opposite of dick riding?

[Jeff Hasselback @HasselbackHog]

@TheFieldOf68 @GoodmanHoops @RobDauster @RazorbackMBB This is insane rage bait dick riding

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@MrCatphin Hahaha noted.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@ar_outlaw Explain this meme. Kinda looks like you’re posting a one eyed green wiener.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@Terrence_taylor 😂😂😂😂

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

@JakeGivesAdvice @pinto479 There was … context at Arizona that doesn’t show up in a box score.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

If you’re looking at blocked shots to determine Ky Boswell’s defensive impact, you’re looking at the wrong stuff.

And I love Jordan. I’ve seen him play a dozen times in person. He is the ultimate winner. My favorite player in the freshman class, no question. My concern with Arkansas’ backcourt has more to do with going from Meleek Thomas (who I would have had as a first team All-American) to Jeremiah Wilkinson.

And more than anything else, I’m worried about whether they did enough in the front court. They’re young, thin and not all that physical. Look at the front courts of the teams that have won big the last two years.

I don’t think they’ll be terrible, I just see them as more of a 6 seed than a 3 seed. Hope I’m wrong, because your fans are sickos and consume all the content when they’re good.

Feel free to disagree, I see your side, but just know there’s no hate coming from me. Just an opinion. We’ll see if it’s good or bad.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

I can tell you for a fact we’ll get WAY more ‘clicks’ on platforms that matter financially (YouTube, newsletter, pod feeds, etc) for glazing than for what you call click bait. Mentions on X don’t matter. TBH I hope I’m wrong. Arkansas fans flood YouTube when they’re good, and that’s good for business!!!

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Arkansas fans are not happy with my take on their roster. I get it, I’m on an island here, but I have real concerns about interior physicality, losing Meleek Thomas and relying on so many freshmen, including a pair of reclass kids.

Selling Spence off of that World Cup when Porro resigns makes sense. Selling him for less than it will cost to buy his replacement … subpar.

[Gianluca Di Marzio @DiMarzio]

.@Inter, Spence a Milano tra venerdì e sabato, completato lo scambio di documenti con il Tottenham

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

Disappointing that the number is that low, but it was time. He burned too many bridges. When he cares, he’s maybe the best ball-playing CB in the world. He just doesn’t seem to care all that often. Happy he’s someone else’s headache now.

@TheFieldOf68 @GoodmanHoops @RobDauster @RazorbackMBB Is Rob Dauster stupid?

[Joey Gallo @JoeyGall0]
