In Season Tidbits

Not to pat myself on the back but I did say he reminded me of Bill Russell defensively when we were recruiting him.
 
Per Octagon Basketball Europe

One more splendid performance from @DeeHarrison21 in the French LNB couldn't save Portel, as despite his 25 points (5/7 3pts, plus 7 rebounds and 1 assist), Dijon escapes with 86-84 road win. The St.John's graduate is currently among top 10 scorers of the league #octagon

Guess he got over his jet lag.:)
 
Interesting that each game after the Butler opener our opponents have had a longer time in between games to prep. Trend continues this Wednesday vs Providence. Prep obviously matters and 4 games in a row to start conference play is a little bit strange.

Vs Xavier
- 5 days between games vs our 4

Vs Georgetown
- 4 days between games vs our 2

Va DePaul
- 6 days between games vs our 2

Vs Providence.
- 4 days between games vs our 3

We’ll have an even # of days off vs our next two after that vs the Hall and Marquette and we get our first advantage in the 8th game of the conference season against DePaul. Just something I thought was interesting.

*just looked ahead and only twice all conference season do we have an advantage in days off in between games. @DePaul and @ seton hall.

[quote="RedStormNC" post=372101]Coach Anderson out recruiting w/ Mrs. A

Coach Anderson never ceases to amaze me in a positive sense. Guy gets a key win at the Garden and is immediately out recruiting and rubbing shoulders with the local power brokers. He just doesn’t stop working. This is so refreshing compared to the last 2 staffs.
Thanks for posting the picture and caption.

February 8th, @Creighton, will also be to our advantage (although, I always feel like that stuff can go in either direction). We will have 5 days off prior to the game, and Creighton will only have 2.

Is Greg's dad a high school coach?

It looked like he was coaching in that photo of his youngest son playing.

Just an idle thought, but as we suffer through challenging season, keep in mind Julian Champagnie & Greg Williams are clearly BE caliber players imo. Both will blossom in coming seasons and hopefully like recruits will join them to get program on positive path. I trust no one knows that better than CMA.

Agree with this and after seeing some conference games I feel confident adding Earlington to this list.

I believe Earlington is the brightest piece we have. The kid was a part time basketball player until last year. He is getting better game by game and even showed off the jump shot he has been working on last game.

No one in the program has grown more then Earlington over the last 12 months.
