The radio said Doh has been very happy with Mangrum in practice and he played 30 mins at Tulane. How he doesn't start over Harp against Memphis is beyond me. He has a much better shot than Harp, hustles everywhere and has pretty good athleticism. He drove the lane in the first half and went up to dunk on someone before getting fouled hard. Love that! Harp had a wide open 3 and airballed it.

The ankle breaker move by Jfrog and drive down the paint with a made bucket was greatness!!...He was good tonight and made very few errors...I like his moxie. he os going to get more and more of a tude, which we need.

I think Doh deserves some credit. Collin was working out, he started the second half and Harp (rightfully so) never even sniffed the court in the second half.

Jfrog deserves to play every minute he can, he handles the rock better than anyone on our team, Yes, all he can do is shoot threes, inside the arc, he can F up some wide open looks, but I am betting he will learn to knock those down.

Collin needs to take all of Harp's minutes and more. I loved the way Doh worked the lineup tonight.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

And Doh was patient and let the guys work for the open shots...the new shooting touch by the guys is obvious. The O looks like a real O that will get better.
Jfrog had a great controlled game and Collin brings some good energy. His putback with 45 seconds left was bigtime. He was supposed to release instead of hitting the O boards but saw a opening and went in and made the shot.
Good win as this wasn't expected this year with the lack of talent and depth....

Someone has forgotten to tell him that he shouldn't be doing the things he is doing............ :D

I'm not gonna jump on the Mangrum train yet. However, he has showed he isn't afraid to pull the trigger, unlike Harp who is scared to even glance at the basket.
