11 DBs ATL. Thats a full 2-deep plus 1. Curious to see how rotation is handled there as well. I'm not sure I like moving Swilling inside to play nickel but I'm sure the staff has a good reason for it.
Tough break for a good kid. I enjoyed watching him play, but it is clear there is more going on here. Hope he can find a home and succeed for the remainder of his career.
Love this thread idea.
I will echo 2 that have already been put out.
kirby - will start each game for us
Norris - will get solid PT in a very deep Wr room (need someone/anyone to break out)
on defense, I am hoping one of the highly rated transfer DBs can lockdown a job opposite Swilling. I...
I like to look at this from the other angle, that usually the guys in the desert know more than the guys writing articles. Maybe Vegas sees a little more in us than the national media does.
I think 5 is the expectation and barometer.
4 or less would be really disheartening and take away a lot of the positive momentum.
6 or more with a bowl game would be a huge statement and a successful year in my book.
5 would just be okay, not good, not bad. Meh.
Hope it’s not true but trust this decision is harder on him than it would be on any of us. He has true love for GT - must be tough for him. Would love to see him stay though.
I agree and think CJP will leverage this to get his extension. I don't think he goes, but I've seen crazier things happen. I certainly don't want him gone, but if he were to jump ship, we would be in the best situation we have been in years to find a replacement.
three callouts:
1. Very tough draw for us - not gonna sugarcoat it. But its the big dance, there arent many "easy" draws. We gotta show up and beat whoever they put in front of us
2. I think our game is has one of the lowest point totals of the first round - its going to be a slow, grind it...
As much as everyone hates Duke, there is absolutely no way anybody should be happy about basketball not being played. I want to see Duke lose on the court, not like this. Hopefully coaches and teams look at this as a Lessons Learned - and this doesn't happen to anyone else around the country...
Miami goes 7 deep in their rotation, with 1 of them being a former walk-on (getting double digits minutes). Their starting 5 will basically have to all go 35+ minutes.
They will look to play slow, we need to push and get in transition, play with a quick pace.
Don't want to be dismissive of a team that just grinded out 2 straight wins in a knockout tournament - with a lot of adversity faced this year. Miami has been playing well and they will be up for the challenge tomorrow, we cant go in thinking it will be a breeze. I think in the 2nd half once...
Sweet 16 is a great achievement, just having a whole week of knowing we won 2 games and have the anticipation to the 2nd weekend would be incredible. Elite 8 is likely our ceiling. I personally expect to win 1 game, we are a good team and should matchup very even (toss-up) with a 6-7 seed. 2nd...
Obviously 1st round win % is higher for 8/9 than 10/11/12, but that 2nd round win % is much better for the group of 10/11/12.
As many have said, I think best case we get the "top" 11 seed, and matchup against a soft 6 seed and a beatable 3-seed. A 10 seed wouldn't be terrible, but there is a...
