Re: Basketball is here!
I like that we were able to keep our core. I like already knowing all the players heading into the season. Makes it easier to watch the earlier games.

Re: Basketball is here!
Yes, this is a big factor with connecting with the fan base as well, I think. A lot easier to root for kids you're familiar with and like already. I think that's what we'll have this season and, hopefully, it really helps with attendance as well!NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2023 10:37 amI like that we were able to keep our core.

Re: Basketball is here!
Seems like if one of the transfer point guards we have can become a quality guy at that position, it will free Harcum and Brown up to create more.

I'd be all for that! Brown is fun to watch!

He is explosive and athletic.
We shouldn't have to depend so much on Gregory this year. He will be our leader but if everyone settles into their role it could get interesting.

Re: Basketball is here!
I'm just hoping we shoot free throws at a higher percentage and hero ball doesn't take over in close games. Seemed to be consistent issues last year. Plenty of talent on this team. Super excited to watch how they've grown.

Re: Basketball is here!
Oakland City is in Indiana. They did not win many games last year. Looks like they were 9-19 or 9-20, no Division I games. They were 2-14 in their last 16 games after starting 7-6. I haven’t heard of any of their opponents before. This game should be over in the first 5-6 minutes if we are as good as advertised.

Re: Basketball is here!
This will be a big experiment for our coaching staff. Hopefully a positive learning experience.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2023 5:08 pmOakland City is in Indiana.

Interested in seeing what some of the newcomers look like and which rotations play well together.

Marsh, Tate, Hayes and Spillers. Looking good against a glorified high school team.
