Damn our out of conference schedule is no joke this year. Glad to see that.

I plan on going to the Jimmy V Classic at MSG to see us play Oklahoma.

B-ball had open scrimmage today for the media. Apparently Harvey looks really good. Looks just as explosive as he was before the injury. If true that’s huge news for us going forward. He is a big part of this team making some noise this year

First year season ticket holder. Ready to get going on the season this week. May be rough at first, but will be in the thick of things by the end of the season.

Exhibition game is on the ACC network.

Laszewski is actually a bit thicker than I thought he would look, which is a good sign.

Not much to take away at this point, except Rex still doesn't have a left hand.

EDIT: These freshman do not look like normal freshman. They ALL look smooth.

Different sorta hoops/football recruiting news:

5* PG Jalen Suggs (4* QB too) is visiting with his football teammates for the FSU game.

Notre Dame up 18-6 early. A LOT of freshmen minutes so far; in fact, all the freshmen have already played besides Doherty.

Hubb looking good. Has a steal, 5 points, and a 3 pointer. Nate Laz has drawn 2 fouls and is good from the FT line.

Under 10 minutes in the 1st half. ND up 28-15.

Carmody had steals on consecutive possessions.

Dane Goodwin trey. Irish up 20. Freshmen group is looking very impressive so far.

Good thing we're deep this year. The way this is being officiated, in the past this may have be 3v3 late in the second half.

On a side-note, almost posted last night that some online books had Kansas -4.5 vs MSU. Felt like stealing :0) (now watch MSU go on a run to close the half).

Nothing has changed with Pflueger as he is still hot garbage. Everything else looks pretty solid. 46-23 at half.

Rex does so many good things. He plays really good defense. He rebounds well for his size. He hustles and leads.

But holy crap does he struggle with the ball in his hands. It's past a confidence thing, I just think he is who he is.

If we're going to make the Tournament, we need either Hubbs, Carmody or Goodwin to take more of his minutes. He's been a great leader and ND guy, but I'm not sure the best ND team this year includes him playing 30+ minutes.

Edit: Hell, I'm not sure it's 20+.

Haha, you posted this while I was typing my post. I had basically this, but changed it a few times trying to come up with the right words.

But yea, this.

I might be jumping the gun here, but if Carmody can consistently play this level of defense then Pflueger could easily lose his spot.

I think Carmody just dislocated his shoulder so thats cool

Yup that didn’t look good.

On another note the freshman look very good. Not scared to go to the basket which is what we have been missing.

84-67 final. Last 10 minutes or so looked like intramural basketball.

It’s gonna really suck if carmody is out. He looked great tonight.

Very impressed with Nate. Knew he was gonna be good but it’s great to see in a game

Saw post game video and carmody had ice on his shoulder but was moving it so hopefully it’s not as bad as we think

I'm not real sure how you beat Duke.

While it's fun watching Calipari and Kentucky get punked, holy cow.

Its a long season. Injuries happen, film starts to get out so coaches can game plan better, and theres always a chance the freshmen can hit a wall mid season. Duke looks good, but I'm not ready to give them the trophy just yet.

I know, right!? Damn, Duke did impressive though! He's very talented, but that frosh Zion Williamson was definitely getting his "NBA type traveling" calls going his way. I watched about 1/2 the game and I counted a definite (3) times he got away with a legitimate travel call for a score. Oh well, he's a one-n-done anyway …. so might as well get into NBA form now!

We might actually see a 10 man rotation out of Brey this year. I think 8+ people averaging 20+ minutes per game is going to be the way to go. Six blocks in 14 minutes for Durham - that matched with good perimeter D should give some teams fits. Shooting has not been good but you can tell they will dial it in. Other than Durham and Burns pretty much everyone is a threat deep. Mooney looked a lot more comfortable/productive in the paint - hopefully not just a function of playing a lesser opponent.

Duke just isn't right. Those top three should be in pros - no business on a college court. Just pisses me off to watch those pros who are going to grossly outmatch 90% of their opponents who are working on an actual degree. F Duke, F Kentucky - just not right.
