I hope PM finds the right role for Aher. He has a lot of raw talent that I would hate see go to waste

Part of Aher's "problem" is he does not have a role with Krut posting down low and dribbling to the basket and unless he can hit the two from the key, he does not have the shot to contribute. He is a good defender though but we need more scoring threats. The guy to watch in the next couple of games is Pipkins. He is a Curtis Watkins type of quick small forward. Very athletic.
The team is slowly getting it together. Clemons return would help Kennedy. Its a lot to ask an off guard to run a DI offense as a freshman. Plus his natural tendency is go solo which he did in high school. Porter benched him for dribbling around too much and not passing the ball.
We will be fine. I think we will finish in the top three in the Valley and then at least make it to the final game at Archmadness.

Also.... can we win a true road game? There's so much tentativeness with the young guys and newcomers. Haven't seen that much since the year after the CBI year. We need to get into the habit and expectation of winning on the road before conference play begins.

Interesting. Hopefully Marquise still gets 20-25 minutes.

I'd like to see Frank in the 10-12 range.

With another new face added to the lineup, I imagine tonight and Saturday will be a few more games of trying different rotations. Minutes have been pretty evenly split it seems so far, at least among the top 7 or 8

Hoping Kennedy can be a the offensive spark we need off the bench.

Offense could be better, but shots are going in early, which is always nice.

Good start. Clemons seems to settle things down a bit, and there's a little more confidence running offense.

Can’t ask for a better start on the road. Interesting that Kennedy subbed in for Aher.
