You are letting shrews off the hook with NIL excuses.
Why is Burton making the same mistakes he did as a freshman? Because of NIL?
We kept Tae Davis around for a second year? Did he leave ND because of no NIL? Or was it because he wasn’t being developed as well as the team showing no signs of...
They are better at rebounding because of Towt. Not because the coaching staff figured out how to get the team to rebound better.
We are not a good three point shooting team and we commit turnovers because of the offense Shrewsberry runs. It’s predicated on Burton and now harrelson driving and...
I agree with Lax, I do not think they could hang with Ohio State. But I think any other opponent they could hang with and ultimately win. I don't see them getting blown out by us, Georgia, A&M, Indiana, Alabama, etc.
I disagree with the metrics. There are pundits out there that believe Tech has the best d line in all of a college football. No one made that argument for Indiana last year.
My point is I would not characterize them as this year's Indiana. They are much better than that. But I agree, the playoffs are an altogether different matter. I also agree about their offense.
I don't have a clue, and I'm not even advocating that it should happen. All I know is he has featured in 17 of the last 18 games for the USMNT. That means something.
I have no idea if this was Uruguay's 1st team/ 2nd team/ 3rd team, etc. But we outclassed them the whole way. Pretty impressive stuff also considering Mexico just tied them 1-1 a couple days earlier.
About a month ago I would have put his chances to start at like 20/30%. I think those chances have increased. A couple of reasons:
1. The main guys you talk about just can't seem to get healthy. Who's to say they will by the summer? Who's to say if they do that they will be fit enough?
2...
I won’t re hash what’s already been said. A couple of things:
1. Shooting will be inconsistent all year. There will be some games where someone catches fire, maybe DeJesus or Cass, but it won’t be a constant occurrence.
2. I believe Ivey wants to press/pressure the ball handlers throughout a...
It’s real. Our post defense will not hold up and rebounding will be an issue. I could see Ivey going lots of zone this year but that won’t help the rebounding. If Hannah gets any type of injury we are surely doomed.
When you have a roster of 8, you’re bound to have deficiencies( I know we got Ratigan and Smith, but I find them to be glorified walk ons). I personally think it will be a miracle for us to finish the top4 of the ACC, and tough sledding to finish in the top 8.
