Oh, was there a problem? My sweating, agitation, tremors, runny nose, headaches, and hyperventilation are practically gone today. _________________ "We should've thrown our number 7 pitcher against Davidson......" Post by Tar Heel baseball fan 16 minutes into the game. |

Not me. I was of quivering mass of post-game nerves. Missed you all. |

It’s a little disturbing how few options I had to ask through other channels if the problem was on my end. And Waitress needs to check the Twitter more often. _________________ This is a post by BDF, not BDL. |

Lots of things to like. Still wondering what rebounding will look like with 4 guards. Gonna need to turn teams over more often if the rebounding suffers. Got a whiff of that (turning teams over)Tuesday but that's generally not the style that Bob promotes.... he's more of the "stay in front of your guy and make the other team shoot tough shots" kinda guy. I want to see Luka against some bigger competition. He seemed comfortable enough against Nate, but I'm wondering about the paint when it's just Luka. Of course, one answer might be that we see 3 guards more than we see 4 guards. I think Kishawn will be pretty crucial... he'll have some mismatches as a 4 and it will be interesting to see how comfortable he is taking advantage of the different defenders who try to match up against him.
Jag and Kellan look like a tough backcourt to defend. We just better make sure we can break a press or my head's gonna explode.

I don't think we'll see a lot of full court press against us when both JAG and KG are on the floor. They are too good at attacking the hoop. |

Kishawn is bigger than Andrew Lovedale. |

Reminder that we played with 4 guards last season. Oskar became an effective big. |

I wouldn’t really call Oskar a guard, although that’s what he played his first 3 years. Barham would be interesting comparison. Offensively he would sometimes be used the way we typically use the 5 position. We played 4 guards at the end of the Rhode Island game in our first year in the A-10 and maybe a few other times. It was painful, but I think we won. |

And an argument could be made that the 6-0 and 5-11 are generous listings. |

Think big, what roster size is going to get us to the second round of the NCAA's??  _________________ "They were energized by this move to the A-10. How could you not be?" McKillop said. "The tree is filled with a lot of presents." |

a lineup of: JAG, Kellan, Frampton, KP, and Luka will be fine size wise in the A10, especially when/if we play zone. I am slightly worried about our size off the bench if MJ's injury is severe. That would mean no immediate replacement for KP/Frampton. If Bates/NBY are ready and both Dusan and Ekwu can stay healthy (all big ifs) then we will be in a great spot with regards to size. Obviously Carter and David have enough size to play the 1 or 2. |

I think foul trouble would be the only reason to see both Frampton and KP out at the same time. Slide CC in to guard the 1 and move JAG over to guard the 3 and we’re fine without taking Nellie or Bates into account. _________________ This is a post by BDF, not BDL. |
