Good news, the men's BB team beat USA

[coastratdog]

Just watched Holland's press conference. Sounds like So. Ala has a good team. Something to look forward to. Any comments from someone who watched the game?

USA had some very good athletes, but no height. We had the game in hand when this sequence happened. They made a shot and immediately fouled Tyson. He missed front end of one-and-one. They come down and pop a three with DJ falling into his man for a 4 point play. Reggie immediately throws the inbound away and they get a 2. Eight point swing in just a few seconds.

To our credit, we buckled down. Tyson made 4 straight free throws. We played a great defensive set. We fouled (correctly) down three with less than 2 seconds on clock.

Iverson M showed some speed and spirit, but made some freshman mistakes. He looks to be good. Definitely the best impression from newcomers.

We miss Nick. Tyson is not a bad point, but when he is at point, he is not looking for his 3. Reggie is a beast.

We needed this exhibition. I still have much hope for the season.
