I thought the hustle and court awareness was very similar to the Texas and Oklahoma game. They played as a team throughout the game, versus a lot of individual play.

Fortson played much more like a true point guard – looking to get everyone else involved early and getting his points off the flow.

Good energy and good performance. Not much to criticize and much to complement. I'll get a more formal post out later.

T-towner, 8 assists vs. 3 turnovers…. (not that I'm counting) but I totally agree.

At least for one game, Hog Ball lives! Fortson made some really good moves and, mostly, really good decisions. He backed it out a couple of times instead of overtrying to create something.

GREAT, GREAT, GREAT to see!!! Long overdue.

We looked fine against the worst team in the league. What is most obvious is that we have not developed a pretty good bench in favor of Fortson, Clark, and Sanchez. Its a shame for this year. Next year and the year after will tell the tale. Sanchez and Clark will develop to match the hype, or not. Pelphry's future will hang in the balance, or not.

It was good to see Welsh look like his old self today. Where have you been Stephan?

Clarke looked like he picked up his overall game today as well.

Defense was good on all counts.

M. Sanchez even looked like a more aggresive player today.

It was nice to see the 1994 NC team team, finally getting the deserved recognition they earned 15 years ago.

It looke's like the guys have put on a few pounds over the years, but then again, who hasn't?

It would have been nice to have seen Davor Rimac and Elmer Martin as well, but that's life. It was good to see most of those guys together again though. What a team!
