December 5, 20241 yr Shedrick getting easily muscled throughout the game … he’s serviceable on wide open dunks and coming over to help in the paint on somebody else’s man but sucks ass rebounding and boxing out, and he gets easily outmuscled by guys who should have no business moving him.We are gonna need to get our 2 freshman bigs’ feet wet ASAP to see if they have any rebounding and defense to offer … but, I think we squandered some good chances to do that against the cream puffs who we already played.

December 5, 20241 yr Is it just me or do those god awful coaches polos the staff keeps wearing look like Nike sent UT a bunch of overruns and said "sorry, that's all we got for you this season"?

More so than Mark, whose return I thought would be a lot more helpful than it's been. Some guys take longer than others to come back from injury and start playing at a high level. I don’t think we’ve seen enough yet to say that Mark won’t end up being huge for this team.

We would be small but I think a much better team.

Shedrick was the best he's been all year in the last 8 minutes of the game yesterday. He stopped roaming on the perimeter and sat in the lane. That's what we need. Keep your big ass body near the rim if the other team's big can't shoot. I don't know if it was a coaching staff change or Shedrick finally adjusted.
December 5, 20241 yr Total offensive production and rebounding out of Shedrick and Onyema last night was 5 points and 6 rebounds in 40 min.

Still not sure he's 100% and there is a lot of competition for mins at the guard/SF spots. I thought Kent was potentially out for the season?

I thought Kent was potentially out for the season? Yeah Mark has been fine I just expected a bit more. He'll probably continue to improve. And yeah from what others are saying it seems like Kent may be out for the season. Which sucks.

December 5, 20241 yr Onyema definitely busts his ass Saw whatever else you want about him, but he busts his ass and tries hard
December 5, 20241 yr 4 minutes ago, MotownHorn said: Onyema definitely busts his ass Saw whatever else you want about him, but he busts his ass and tries hard The one thing Onyema can do is move on the perimeter defensively. Something Shedrick can't do.
December 5, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, MotownHorn said: Onyema definitely busts his ass Saw whatever else you want about him, but he busts his ass and tries hard He definitely does play hard. The only problem is if he plays more minutes, he will get in foul trouble and Shedrick will have to come back in anyway.
December 6, 20241 yr Total offensive production and rebounding out of Shedrick and Onyema last night was 5 points and 6 rebounds in 40 min. Gotta get about 8 points and 10-12 boards between the 2 of them to beat the top 50% of SEC teams on the road
