great game tonight. Thanks for the excellent article Mike. Keep up the good work Go Dawgs!
So great to see this team doing well. Hope they can make a run to the end and be tournament bound.
The Dawgs seemed to let off the gas the last few minutes and let LSU back in the game. The big guy, Tchewa, really saved the day. We have really missed having someone with his size and strength the past few years. He also is hitting some key shots from the foul line. Mike White is doing a great job bringing in the talent and it's showing on the court.
Despite missing open shots (including layups), this team ground out a solid win through hustle, connectedness, and dare I say depth. Once they eliminate the mistakes, they really might be a consistent force. You can bet other teams are taking notice and not automatically putting a W on their schedule. Keep chopping hardcourt Dawgs!
Mike has done a good job with players from the portal, but really happy with the freshmen he recruited out of high school. Silas Demary Jr, a 6'5" guard is coming on strong and Blue Cain is giving valuable minutes off the bench. Love the competitive nature of this team.
It is nice, indeed, to see a big make free throws. He needs to be more consistent around the rim with layups and put-backs... though certainly answered the bell in the waning seconds last night! These guys are just going to get better, and it'll be fun to watch. Go Dawgs!
