Townsend gave us the "Enrique Freeman" treatment. That was hard to watch. -
Lots of growing pains. Keep grinding guys.
-
When was the last time Nate Johnson successfully hammered home a fast break dunk? I'm to the point where I'm hoping he just lays it up and takes the points.

Do we know if James Okonkwo was awarded an additional year?
-
I agree, but I think we will have 3 week-long breaks this OOC schedule. It just seems too erratic for my liking.
-
I don’t have a problem with the Zips playing D3 teams on occasion. But I agree we looked like a team that hadn’t played in a long time. For whatever reason the games are not well spaced this year.

I feel for the Zips radio announcers. Trying to keep up with who was doing what was challenging. I can’t imagine being the one tasked with broadcasting that action. And good for Evan Wilson.
-
Listening to Groce’s comments I gather we can expect to see a 9 or 10 player roster until everyone is playing up to standard in practice and in games. Wilson must have had the worst grade before last game and Scott before this game. I do think his goal is to eventually play 11 deep at some point.

Zips are looking good early. And nice to see Seth Wilson in there.

I think this week off will be good for Harris as well. I imagine his back is quite sore from yesterday’s fall. -

I hope Wilson works his way back into the rotation soon, even if for only a few minutes at a time. I don’t want him to fall too far behind the rest of the team. He has a good shot from deep, has plenty of game experience and his big body will help in certain match-ups. But he can’t be a liability on the up-tempo style of play either. -
*named. “Naked” is funnier.

I like that they are diving for loose balls. Good measure of their intensity.
