    • I was on the road covering several football recruits last night.

      Can anyone apprise me of how the game went? Sounds like JMM had a solid debut as "the man," Paige struggled a bit ...

    • My Personal opinion is JMM is going to be hard for anyone to handle. He is still riding that confidence upswing started at the end of last year. Paige an Joel struggled early but i thought got more in the groove as time went, Paige is feeling a lil pressure tryiing to fill big shoes. I was surprised UNC did not find more ways to get the three off. Roy is using these early games to find players who play together well. I think personally It will be hard keeping Tokoto grounded. Seemed to me the most confident of the Freshmen. Free throw shooting must be practiced lots!

    • We played okay in stretches and not so good in others. We have a long way to go. Defensively, I think we have a chance to be good. It is the offensive side where we may struggle. We shot 47% from the free throw line. That is just not acceptable. 1 -12 from three land is worse. Individually Brice is going to be very good. JMM is a monster but needs help. Marcus is good with the ball but not so good on Defense. PJ struggled with his shot. Reggie played a good all around game. Joel will be really good just need to control the fouls. JP is quick and athletic and choose his shots well (3-4) 6 pts in 10min. Dexter really needs to shoot more. His defense is stellar. Desmond does not seem to have improved at all. He should not be starting. Leslie is rusty, but he missed a while year of basketball. I hope he gets in a groove soon.
