If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

Only a guess, though. We clearly look about 6th place without Austin. Even if Austin were healthy I don't think we're better than 4th.
Also, he's been here TWENTY-TWO years. It's JacobSON and always has been.#MACtion

Looks like Jacobson to me.If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game.

Nothing too impressive. Outside of born I worry we don’t have a “dog” who can get points when we need them. So many young guys so the frustrating part is that will have to develop over time.
I think Brock is confused You’re all correcting them on spelling and they think you don’t realize his son is playing and you’re correcting them on the 400th edition of lineup projection.
I think……I don’t know how else to make sense of it. Regardless, I’m excited for version 401 after the next game.

A few of my take aways:
Bowen - Shots weren't falling but looks fearless out there. Doesn't get flustered and is exactly what you want mentally from a PG
Nate - Tough shooting night but that will come. Again looks really comfortable in a leadership role. Had a finger or two taped on his hand and wonder if that was impacting his shot
Betz - Having him able to consistently knock down outside shots is going to be a key for us. Want to see him attack the boards too so that he has a few dimensions to his game.
Ty - Looked like he wants to be the guy. Drove the lane, hit outside shots, chased rebounds. Should be fun to watch this year... Has to be better than a 50% free throw shooter though because he is going to get fouled
Trey - He's under a lot of pressure as a true freshman to be able to act as the second PG... showed he can shoot and score but there will be growing pains
Cole - Has the size and looks to have the skills to be another Tuttle. We could only be so lucky.
Wolf - Looks like a scorer and will be a great spark off the bench. Going to be fun to watch
Duax - Has the build but needs some finesse to polish the game a bit. Again another spark off the bench and could be a body to use if we need to get a bit more physical
Daniel - Get him in the corner and let him shoot. I was pleased with what I saw because I was never expecting to see him with meaningful minutes. He could be someone that could absorb first half minutes for us this year
Too early to tell:
Krogmann
Courbat
Peksari
Redshirt:
Miller
Jacobson
Get Phyfe back and the needle moves considerably. Expect to have a bumpy ride though this year Panther fans. We are going to have some ups and downs as these kids learn to lead. The biggest thing is outside of Bowen, who is going to want the ball late in the shot clock now that AJ is gone. The other note is that after Bowen we have Nate and a true freshman as our best ball handlers. If I was an opponent, I would be dialing up the pressure significantly when Bowen was on the bench to try and force turnovers. Not a lot of depth/experience in the PG position.If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game.

Robbie Sieverding has done a great job at Dubuque. He may be content staying close to home but he is good enough to move up."My role is to lead, plain and simple. . . .I with the help of my staff and our administration, we will lead." --Ben Jacobson

Would be interesting if Peksari is on a redshirt or barely plays this year's schedule and Campbell continues to start. Born and Campbell would be our really only 2 ball handlers at that point.
Born is probably playing 35 in competitive games regardless, but with Heise pushed to the wing where we expect to see minutes from Duax and Wolf, it makes for some interesting minutes out there.
I'm assuming with his length and potential scoring abilities the staff sees Trey as more of a 2 with good wing defensive capabilities than a true point, and with Taylor coming in next year that probably fits the timeline.
Still there are probably going to be times this year where he has to play it this year and could see some growing pains in that area constantly switching roles.
Still very possible he hits 30 mpg by conference play.
Edit: For some reason I keep forgetting we have Henry. He's not a point guard, but he's very effective moving the ball, I can't recite enough how big this guy could be for our potential surprise success this season.Last edited by Username; 11-05-2022, 02:36 PM.
