They were brutal against the press. Book is gonna be out on that if Willard doesnt adjust

I think Seton Hall goes back to the bottom of the BE after this year. Recruiting isn't great, NCAA has some dirt on them, and UConn is going to take some of their recruits and wins.

So much for John Beilein's coaching value...

Pretty nice win for the BigTen over UNC.

Hopefully we get to see a scUM vs. UO final.

Yeah they are definitely one of the programs that can have a good cycle but has no chance to be consistently relevant imo.

Their potential for recruiting isn't close to that of Nova/Gtown/Uconn/Marquette/St Johns(if they get some stability). And they don't have the stable foundation of programs like Butler/Xavier/Creighton(even this one is a little generous).

Shit, even DePaul is starting to at least get consideration by quality players thanks to where they are located.

Gonzaga really needs to get in a new fucking league.

Would be so much fun to watch them playing real competition all year. They are always fun to watch. But I ain't turning on Gonzaga vs Portland in January.

Lot of shots coming up short. Lack of depth showing.

Can we get a defensive rebound? I feel this possession will come to that?

Two legit teams. With one major flaw each imo watching.

Zags-Usually you can chalk them up to having great veteran guards. Seems like this team is all big white boys in crunch time

Ducks- Lack of consistent jump shooters/free throw shooters.

Hell of a game

Gilder being banged up didn’t help us either. Although Ayayi made some nice plays late to offset that a little.

He had some really impressive moves in transition forsure.

Just doesn’t seem early on that they have the usual steady half court guard play of past zags teams. But you’re right, a healthy Gilder will help.

John Schambi awkawardly trying to avoid answering whether he’d take Pritchard first to start a team...

lmao. I mean Pritchard is good, but I have no idea what the color guy was thinking.

Another great game

These two teams have nearly identical strengths and weaknesses

Oregon's length and athleticism is insane. But their complete lack of shooting(especially from the line) is gonna hurt them in a lot of games.

No idea why unc stopped running offense. Bleeding the clock and letting Oregon in the gm

Oregon gets some additional size in a couple weeks. It will be interesting to see how Dante gels with the team.
