Blue & Gold

Those numbers are so gaudy. And he competed in Florida's 8A division at Vero Beach, which is Florida's big school division.

I'm having a lot of fun with Zips basketball this year. But I'm starting to understand why Bobby Knight didn't like post-season conference tournaments. They truly diminish the importance of the regular season. I was excited... but not like I used to be... about the Kent game Friday night. But when we lost, I was just thinking, "Meh."

Konata's got a great-looking senior highlight video

Have Tribble & Ali put up 500 3-pointers a day before next Saturday. Get them some confidence in their respective strokes & tell them to (as I've heard Groce say before) "Shoot with smiles on their faces."

Worst hands I’ve ever seen. Never catches the ball with his hands; seem to always catch the ball with his wrists. Such poor hand-eye coordination I doubt he can even pick his nose.

Just a guess. I think Maishe Dailey, Bryan Trimble & Taylor Currie will all be starters next year. But I could be totally wrong.

My thoughts exactly. This is a very nice mid-major tournament. But that's not really what I'd be looking for in a pre-season tournament. We need chances to knock off P-5 teams on a neutral court. But we're going to have a lot of new pieces in the lineup next year so this should give us more manageable games in which to gel, assuming next year's field is similar to the field this year. When is the last time we took one of those summer trips? This might be a good summer to travel with the team considering we're going to have at least 3 new starters next season; starters who have never played a minute in a Zips uniform.

DT John Mitchell and I are on the same page. I think Brown could step in and start next year.
