Haskell thread

[I.I.]

Smith Harrison Woodard Swannegan and Taplin. Taplin makes the first shot.

 

[I.I.]

Full court press. First in a long time.

 

[I.I.]

12-3 15:42

Birt Ray Brown in now

 

[Gold*]

Dre hurt?

 

[Gold*]

I take it we aren't red shirting Big E or Brown?

 

[dmarsh1985]

Exhibitions don't count toward red shirts!

 

[Gold*]

I thought they did. That was the Bishop Wheatley deal.

 

[I.I.]

Even though shots aren't falling, Birt looks pretty smooth. Needs to make some for confidence. Woodard hasn't shot, just watching for now. Big E just can't rebound, no elevation.

 

[astonmartin708]

Keep it up guys!

 

[I.I.]

27-18. 7:18

A little sluggish now.

Want to see a lot more Birt and Taplin. Everyone wants to see if Shaq can shoot.

Exhibitions don't count toward red shirts!

Only for freshmen. NCAA doesn't allow non-freshman players to take part in exhibition games and redshirt in the same season.

 

[I.I.]

Smith and Taplin have been sitting a long time.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Smith and Taplin have been sitting a long time.

I suspect Taplin will sit the rest of the half he has 2 fouls.

 

[Gold*]

Only for freshmen. NCAA doesn't allow non-freshman players to take part in exhibition games and redshirt in the same season.

So definitely no redshirt for Big E.

 

[I.I.]

37% from the field. Haskell shooting 19% with 11 turnovers. Brown makes a three.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I stand corrected.

 

[I.I.]

Woodard leading scorer and rebounder.
Dre and TK have not played???

 

[Gold*]

TK may be a redshirt candidate. No explanation with Dre.

 

[I.I.]

Halftime. 39-23

Best performances: IMHO
Woodard
Swannegan
Taplin
Smith ( in his limited time)

 

[ctt8410]

Sixteen 3-point attempts is disappointing. You're a poor shooting team against an overmatched opponent.

Hopefully Taplin can avoid foul trouble in the second half.

 

[Gold*]

Too many Curtis missed 3s. Weird half. Played a lot of subs.

 

[cmullinsTU]

It seems they are wanting to attempt a lot of 3s, they have passed up some easy passes to the post.

 

[TUBballJunkie]

Who is subbing for Swannegan at center? Big E?

 

[I.I.]

Yes

 

[Gold*]

yes

 

[cmullinsTU]

Briefly played with Smith at 5 and Birt at 4.

 

[Air_Raid918]

Too many missed 3's from Curtis? Great we get to endure another season with him getting way too many minutes. His assist to turnover ratio last year was something like 20/54, and absolutely never hits wide open threes.

 

[Gold*]

I like Birt.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Curtis only played a lot in the 1st half due to foul trouble from Taplin and Smith, IMO. I suspect he doesn't play nearly as many minutes this season as last year.

 

[I.I.]

Birt is playing harder than he did in JUCO.

 

[Gold*]

My main issue with Curtis in first half Is he is shooting with Shaq and Juice on floor at same time.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I like Birt.

+1

 

[Gold*]

Birt is playing harder than he did in JUCO.

He should have redshirted on our bench last year instead of Dew.

 

[I.I.]

Shaq. A three!

 

[TUBballJunkie]

No mention of Ray?

 

[Gold*]

Been waiting for Shaq to shoot. He's had some nice passes.

We are clearly treating this as a scrimmage.

 

[I.I.]

Not sure we have enough rebounding depth to redshirt TK.

 

[I.I.]

Getting out rebounded 38-36 by Haskell.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I'm not sure if TK is red shirting or injured. He's not dressed out.

 

[astonmartin708]

Not sure we have enough rebounding depth to redshirt TK.
