Game Week! (Exhibition Style)

[cu62nu36]

Uhh ... for Jabari to show up and play. 2 games and counting so far.

Lovering will be good once he outgrows his "Bambi" phase. Simpson is already good. Clifford and O'Brien look solid and should provide depth. O'Brien especially looks like he can bang (extra weight room work) when we go smaller.

The B1G usually gets 8-10 teams in the dance. The P12 will get 4.

We also have five freshmen.

It’s an exhibition. And again, we lost arguably the greatest player in school history. So I have to ask…

What the **** were people expecting for the first month or two?

I wasn't expecting Battey to be mediocre against half way decent competition and Walker to be 100000% MIA in the first two games. His effort and attitude have sucked so far and it's worrisome.

We’ll C U next Tuesday, everyone, when the season actually starts with games that count and matter!

What games? No games have been played.

BuffinCali true: only teams w/ ****braska's perimeter size this year are UCLA, Tennessee, Kansas, USC & Oregon. We learn a lesson; we get chance at top-25!

Zachsquatch true too: I honestly don't think CU's fan-base realize we have 1 of elite player-development programs in country. Sports Illustrated advanced metrics measured Tad #1 in getting lowest ranked players to NBA years ago; it's still the case. Tad didn't ask transfers back because he promised guys develop. time!

I don't think I have to say I told you so re: Nique & Luke! But LUV their toughness, D & Rbding, (when Tristan/ 'Bari not in); their O just frosting on the cake!

I'm barely worried about the poor 3-pt shooting. Luke & Julian shot over 50% from 3 in HS; Tristan, Nique & Javon are good shooters; 'Bari, Kee & KJ will be fine if they manage shot selection. I'm more worried about Evan & Eli. We don't need to have their presence felt on O at 3-pt line; but we do need if felt on D & leadership!

We had 2 Top-20-level recruiting classes; we're on verge of getting couple more 4 star recruits! In-case I'm not being clear enough: I'm still on the bandwagon that a couple wins over borderline Top-25 teams this year puts us in Top-25 by December or end of year. Only question I have is does Tad get youngsters to believe!

I retract arrogantly saying "I told you so." What I meant is: I hope fan base is still not crying "the sky is falling" on the wings-with Quincy out for the year.

Yes, an argument can be made that Tad may have asked D'Shawn Schwartz &/or Maddox Daniels to come back, if he knew Quincy would be out all year.

But love wing strength starting 'Bari & Tristan, w/ Nique & Luke off the bench! And love having a top development coach that shows kids manner more than wins, by keeping his word to play underclassmen versus have a bunch of 6th year seniors or transfers! All-in on some youth-movements, as yearly Tourney still realistic goal!

Yep, those might as well have been called ****ing practice.

Fair enough, but we don't have any AI's on our team, far from it.
