They better play a tad better, a few more people will be watching. We will be on TV I am sure.

As I have discussed with others. Last years team at this point was AWFUL.
Most disappointed in Rob, showing nothing w/ 2 pts.

I agree with that.

Last night
1) No block outs all night, CSU had their way with putbacks and layups
2) Terrible defense
3) Not one backdoor cut pass for layup
4) Terrible FT shooting - even Jalen who nailed FT's as money during the State Championship

I hope at least one of these areas gets cleaned up

This is true, but I was really hoping to avoid the Ark-LR shananigans this year, just on talent increase. No doubt it's early & execution is off, but you can't drop too many 50/50 games or ANY so-called cupcakes. That needs to be a part of the past.

As @texasroundball hazed me about last night on twitter, gotta push on getting Nick Russell cleared. Also, he'd like to see Frog used as a back-up, w/Manuel & Russell as our backcourt moving forward. Plug in Leslee & Shawne, top 4 off bench are Cotton, Jalen & Cannen, Frog. That's really a very different team than the one we're putting out there right now, so that's worth considering
