You talking about #33 Claxton? I don't think he is that great, but he is tall and skinny, and we sure made him look good at times today. In general, I think ugag has has better athletes than us for a few seasons now, they just never had decent coaching and never played to their potential (just...

Absolutely! The bigs (Banks and AD) need to be more decisive more quickly before the double teams come. The gaurds need to be smarter when they drive the lane. Pull up for a short jump shot, take a running floater, or jump stop and pump fake to get the bigs off their feet, instead of driving...

When I said the crowd was one of the only bright spots and made a respectable showing, I meant I was worried that we wouldn't even show up and it would be a majority heathens, but we actually bought a few tickets and at least showed up. As far as crowd noise, I agree with you. My barely 5 year...

I don't think we were prepared for their length. We had 10 shots blocked. Jose and Devoe each had 3 shots blocked and Banks had 2 blocked. I watched ugag's game against AZ State and thought their length might give us problems and it did.

That's good to hear. At the game it looked like about 75/25 or 80/20 GT to me, but I may not be good at estimating that.

The crowd was one of the only bright spots of the game. I was worried that it would be a sold out home crowd for the slobbering mutts, but I was relieved to see that Tech fans made a respectable showing. There was still too much red in the building, but Ive seen a lot worse against other teams...

Should have used more bench in the 2nd half. Pastner reverted to his ride or die with 5 strategy from last year and it didn't work.

Not in the second half. It seemed like he stuck with the same 5, including Alston and Haywood were contributing nothing, and Banks was gassed.

I was at the game. He had an off day scoring, but he was still miles ahead of the rest of the team as a competitor. If we lost him somehow, this program would be a steaming pile. I hope the fans rally around him and let him know we support him and appreciate how he competes for Georgia Tech...

I've always wondered about this in all our sports. I don't know if the players get the hate or not. I think they do. I hope they do. I take my kids down to the tunnel after every game to high five the players, and I can tell you the players took this loss hard, especially Alvarado.

Jose had a rough game shooting the ball, but like you said, he still contributed. I feel for the guy, because he basically has to carry the load for at least himself and two other players for 40 minutes a game. The fact that he is basically our second leading rebounder (tied for 1st today with...

You are half right on your last sentence quoted above. I think the coaches must reinforce his standing around behavior, otherwise his butt would be sitting on the bench for that crap, but unfortunately, I think that really is his game. He thinks he is a spot up knock down shooter, but the...

Don't try to do too much before Saturday though. We need the guys locked in for that. We gotta beat the mutts on our home court!

I agree with you. It isn't doing the team or Moses any favors right now putting the ball in his hands beyond the 3 point line. Run some double post sets, high-low sets, etc. with Moses and another big man in the game.

Jose had a monster game scoring, rebounding, playing defense, and setting the tone mentally for the rest of the team. I wish he would generate more assists but I guess since he is having to be the leading scorer, he can't do everything. Banks also had a monster game, scoring, rebounding and...

This drives me nuts. Dude is built like a brick house but he can't hold on to the ball in traffic. His points, rebounds, and shot blocking have been huge though.

Wright is getting way too much playing time, he is spending way too much time on the perimeter, he is handling the ball way too much, and he is taking way too many shots. He should be getting 7-8 minutes a game max and there is no way he should be starting. The coaches are using him all...

We damn sure better!

Good write up. Sounds like they have some shooters. Should be interesting to see how they do against our defense. Hopefully we show up to play.
