Bump. Looks like we got at least one win and a solid showing against OSU.

Let's hope we show up against Ole Miss too.

1-2 with the losses being close competitive games. Is this a sign that we are getting better, just not yet figured our team/rotation?

Also Curious, isn't the system we play typically played by teams with less than top level talent? As our players continue to get better, will Doh open it up at all?

We're pretty competitive at this point, so we're definitely getting better. Honestly, as mad as I am over the OSU & Ole Miss losses, it's nice to be close. Neither revenue has generated any heat vs power conferences in recent years, so at least we're on the cusp, as opposed to getting drilled.

I think the princeton used to be about teams w/less talent, but that's changed in recent years. There are quite a few examples of quality programs that are running the offense now. That said, most of those teams don't strictly adhere to the tempo principles. We need to break w/numbers, but most importantly, push the ball off the rebound, and get into the offense a ton quicker.

Also, Smith needs 5 looks a game on the low block, if only to keep teams honest.

Agreed on Smith's touches. It is amazing we do as well as we do with zero presence in the post.
