[QUOTE="gohogs14, post: 662846, member: 5029"] Mike Anderson was let go and ended up at St. Johns so we hired Eric Musselman from Nevada in the offseason. We still play fairly fast but there isn't as much pressing and trapping like there was under Anderson. We haven't played a very tough schedule but so far our defense has been terrific, we're #1 in the NCAA in 3 point defense and the most points we've given up is 55. We're a streaky shooting team (either red hot or ice cold) and don't have much size (our starting center is 6'6 but despite that he's been really good so far, granted against mid majors) so we will likely get outrebounded a lot. Isaiah Joe, Mason Jones and Jimmy Whitt (transfer from SMU) are probably one of the better guard collections in the SEC, though Jones has played the 4 this season at 6'5 since Musselman prefers the positionless basketball philosophy instead of the traditional lineup. He is the brother of former Duke player Matt Jones. Because of our size we don't post up much but Jones has been able to use his quickness to score against bigger guys guarding him. He's the type of guy that will score 30+ one game and then 4 the next though. The key to beating us is probably getting our bigs in foul trouble since we don't have much depth there. We have a 7'3 center transfer from Cal but he is sitting out this year. We only really play about 8 players so we don't stretch out the bench as much as we did under Anderson either. Excited to see how we handle our first road test against another P5 team. [/QUOTE]
