Coaching. Worth every penny. Actual Basketball.
I know MissVSt was at the end of a long road trip and were not putting up a fight. But, still, the signs are unmistakeable.
You could really here the excitement in Dykes' voice. He was a pretty good soldier during the dark days and stayed positive. This team is far from complete and yet the talent, effort, and coaching shine like the sun.
I like Mike.
Agreed
Golf, I agree with you as well. As one who went to BWA during the Heath and Pelphrey years, you can tell that Mike is much more organized and expects his players to give total effort. Also, these guys are much better conditioned than the basketball teams have been post-Nolan. BWA is still empty and I don't think the team will be all that great this year but there is definitely energy from fans and the team. Good things will come.
I have to admit, these kids look organized and focused to be so young.
After only their 3rd game post Marshawn Powell, they look to have taken the reigns with enthusiasm.
I said it before and I'll say it again, as much as I feel for Marshawn Powell, this injury could turn out to be a blessing in disguise.
These young guys will continue to gel together and create cemistry. When they go through the wars together in a much improved SEC for a season and bring in more young depth next season,…LOOK OUT!!!
