Up Next: George Mason

Re: Up Next: George Mason

It wouldn't surprise me if one of you Troy-haters set up the parody account as soon as he got the job.

Nope. The things referenced are in no way possible to be known by a UNI fan.

I get that Troy was able to "look the part" and did some good things at UNI. That doesn't change the fact that UNI is better of moving forward without him and that he wasn't well liked. It doesn't take too long on twitter to find some of the "more well known" in the UNI fan base/donor group that have very little good to say about him.

Looks like we're 13-14 point favorites tonight, for what that's worth.

Wow that's a big spread. Almost makes you wonder if Vegas has seen how Jake teams play. The largest margin between us and George Mason in the 5 previous meetings was 8 points last year.

Tonight's about feeding Bennett. They're small and the bigs they do have are young. Should be an awfully good night for the way we play.

Re: Up Next: George Mason

I think this could be a close game. Should be an accurate test of what we'll see in league play. We need to rebound and win loose balls.

Re: Up Next: George Mason

I think Bennett is the key the rest of the season. If his scoring and passing is on we will be tough to beat. He's the one that needs to get us some baskets when we go cold. We will be in trouble vs anyone if we continue to have 6 or more minutes in the game that we don't score. My guess is Bennett will start looking really good the rest of the year minus the UNC game vs less length and talent.

Even though he didn't score I also hope Brown continues to play. I really liked his hustle and focus vs Xavier. Most importantly we will need him to be a starter next year.

Any update on Wyatt?

Re: Up Next: George Mason

Hoping Bennett doesn't put the ball on the floor (or even bring it down below his shoulders) unless wide open. If he can pivot and shoot (or pass), he could wreak havoc on them.

Heard they'd like to wait until Saturday on Wyatt, but he'll be dressed and available. They don't want to have him sit for a stretch and then come back into the game.

I'm most interested to see how McCloud responds tonight... I think he settles in at home after a stretch of games on neutral/away courts against big time programs.

You don't speak for everyone. He is a friend of mine going back to college days 30 years ago.

Man, *that* was 30 years ago, wasn't it?

Suddenly, I need a nap.

I assume this means they will double every time Bennett touches it. Since Bennett brings the ball down to his waist every time he touches it, we could see a lot of turnovers from him for the 3rd straight game. Hopefully he catches it in good enough position to turn and go up and quits putting the ball on the floor.

Re: Up Next: George Mason

Not going so well so far. The shooting hangover from the Xavier game has lingered.
