Wilson is a stud. Once he adjusts to the speed of the game, which wont take him very long, he may be playing 33 minutes no matter who is available. He makes it all look so easy. Hopefully it will look easy when he faces better opposition. We really looked impressive tonight, but I am reserving judgement at least until we play an upper half D1 team.

I started to add “for this week” but wanted to stay positive. 😉

From what ii saw tonight he needs to run the point all the time; keep Russell at 2, and let Wilson create open looks for Ced.

So what's the word on smith? Will be available to play Saturday?
Also I am curious if he is a rim protector because it doesn't look like that is part of doudou's game

Hardy was suspended for violation of team rules

At one point late, we had 5 freshmen on the floor.

Wilson does the little things that make a difference. Under 4 in the first half, stole the ball and could have thrown it down possibly...had a defender chasing him. Smartly kept the ball in front of him and laid it up.

We'll be ok, just need to play games and work kinks out. If Hardy is done, that leaves only Aucoin as the sole senior I believe. We'll be officially young as a team as far as the first 8-9 players.

my biggest concern after watching tonights game is transition defense and defensive rotations. my hope is what i seen is a direct result of a mostly new team playing together for 1st time, including lots of freshmen, and they will greatly improve in these ares quickly.

I only caught the last 8 minutes when I got home. We look pretty athletic. Not sure who can fill the gant roll or a number of guys that collectively can.
