Pre-Game Thread: vs. Alcorn State (11/12/22)

You learn something new every day!!! But so much for secret ballot:)
Having said that, I like the rationale given....:)

Were your guesses right?

I'm tired of that Porter kid thinking he's all that!

he should be the only guaranteed starter

Seems even when we play weak teams we don't work on our weaknesses. I would like to see our post men post and our entry passers work on effective entry passes. I hope IB doesn't punish an entire five for one or two not blocking out or going aggressively to the boards. Sub for the ones who were soft rebounding like GM would have done. One thing for sure and that is we must improve our assist total. Too many guys just looking for their own shots. I almost nailed last games score. I'll go WSU 74-60

While I agree to an extent of not pulling 5 from the floor to punish a few, that method can build to a team of players to hold each other accountable. It's been proven to work in the military. Pier pressure is effective.

I just looked at Alcorn State’s roster. Remember Trevin Wade, Trey’s younger brother? He’s now a Brave.

Central Arkansas Kenpom was Mid 300s. Alcorn State's is 327. Shox by 25.

Especially for bridges, buildings and the Coast Guard!

We're going to need a report on how well this goes.

Let's also take into account that something like this will work much better when/if the place is packed and people are participating.

I question doing it now, but maybe the student section will knock it out of the park.
College football is in full swing, but we get a little lucky with the teams from the northeast starting at 6:00 pm. Additonally, us old farts haven't quite adjusted to the cold weather, so there will be some no-shows. My monkey will be shocked if we have 7,000 in the house.

Oops... I was in a hurry, had to go bail some hey before knight set in.

8500 paid attendance; 6500 actual butts in seats. Unfortunately, that’s about all we can expect at this point.
I’m hoping the student section is packed to the gills; definitely adds enjoyment to the atmosphere. They were really good at the home opener.
