Any Stats From The Brazil Trip?

[blindguyfromuni]

I saw somewhere that Buss, Olivier, & Tuttle each played well in the first game, but haven't seen anymore stats for any other games. Are there any floating around outhere? I think we have learned a lot about what we have on our young team this year because of this trip. I know football season hasn't even arrived yet, but I think this recruiting class is why Coach Jake didn't take another job after last season. I think this class is going to be special.

I remember that UNI won all their Brazil games fairly easily. The Shockers dropped their first one yesterday to a pro team by around 6 points. They played an extra quarter with a running clock and we won that 15-8. It sounded like everybody played so I don't think Marshall, as he has said, was totally out to win but to give experience to players who need it. We play the Brazil's Senior National Team today but believe their NBAers will not play. My question is did the Panthers play pro teams? Just trying to get a fair comparison. Thanks.

I enjoyed reading Coach Jake's quotes about the experience, but man, I found that to be a very poorly written article.

I didn't see one final score from any of our five games mentioned in the article, and I couldn't figure out who the Americana team that was referenced was until a couple of paragraphs after it was mentioned.

I didn't have the same feeling. I thought it was a good article. Granted if someone read it without having any knowledge about the trip, there would be some things over the reader's head. The author probably assumed -- properly or otherwise -- that the reader already knew the results of the games and who the opponents were.

My thoughts exactly.
