[Peacone36]

Snagged a sandwich from Gambinos last night, placed a bet for the good guys to cover, jumped on the tube only to realize the game was today.

dangit.

College basketball: Yellow Jackets set to begin second season under Damon Stoudamire

Last season was filled with exhilarating wins, intriguing storylines, woeful inconsistencies and, generally, poor defense. Final tally -- 14-18 overall, 7-13 in ACC.

This is how I know we're kindred spirits. I'm outta town and was looking forward to streaming our game last night.

I was clickin' the link and cursing the stars wondering why it wouldn't just show me the dayum game!

Looked at the date twice and was sure it was supposed to be on.

Needless to say, I was wrong (for the first time ever).

And I didn't even get a sandwich out of it.

Speaking of sandwiches, 5 more hours. Time for Baye to eat. Looks like it’s going to be a sparse one at McCamish but hopefully students show out and winning cures that ill.

Checking in with 15 mins to go until tip! Ghost town here at McCamish, way represent GT! Not surprised though.

Few thoughts:

We’re much bigger, longer than last season.
Ryan Mutombo and DO are huge.
Duncan Powell appears super athletic
Lance Terry just hit a windmill dunk!

 

[slugboy]

Doubling them up so far. What do you all think?

 

[Root4GT]

Sloppy with the ball so far and committing too many fouls. Good transition offense. McCollum looks very good. Half court offense struggling 22-14

Nait is a very good floor leader. Wasie is attacking well. O’Brien does a lot of everything.

39-20 now

Sloppy with the ball early but look much better once they got into the flow of the game. 15 assists to 6 turnovers at half is a good ratio. I really like the length that we have and we have 3 really good guards in McCollum, Terry, and George. Mustaf will get there too with more experience this year.

Miss St was up 40-29 at the half on Monday, then outscored WGA 55-31 in the 2nd half.

 

[hbarrett]

Lots of depth. Lots of talent. Glad to see DO getting time.

Second half should be interesting as reserves get more minutes. Nait and Javian are both good PGs. Not sure who else can fill that roll

 

[YlJacket]

Hate to say it but the second half is not interesting in a positive way. Sloppy and we need to really focus on putting these guys away

Nothing really bad per se, just not what you would hope to see you in the second half against his crew

Lots of subs and combinations. Drop off without Nait and Javian

 

[AUFC]

Nothing but smiles from Nait and Javian when they are on the court together. Hope you guys are booking your PTO for March 20-21.

I know I’m preaching to the choir here but I hope you guys will come out to McCamish and support the team this season. It’s a good squad and crowds do have an impact on whether you win or lose college basketball games. Hell, you might even have fun while you attend.

I agree with what you say. This is the best team we've had since at least 2010. I went tonight. These very early games are when you need to create some excitement. Our last 2 coaches were horrible to start seasons. I don't think CDS is going to tolerate that.

 

[RamblinCharger]

Didn’t get a chance to watch tonight. I’ll have to watch online tomorrow. Looks like we shot poorly from 3. Hopefully that turns around with more time together. Otherwise stats look solid. Not a horrible amount of turnovers which is nice to see from game 1.
