| The Section 103 Postgame Report
1. The 'AA has ruined exhibition games. A game against the Argentinian Junior National Team or the Globetrotters is a barometer, while a matchup with North Alabama is a glorified shootaround.
2. This team still doesn't value the ball enough. Way too many loose possessions tonight.
3. Good to see Woolridge have the offensive flurry bridging the halves. For the first 19 minutes, he looked like the worst player in America.
4. This group does do a good job of sharing the ball. Thirty plus assists, especially on a night when guys could have gotten big numbers going one on one, is an indication of that.
5. They have to do a better job blocking out on the initial shot after someone breaks the press. North Alabama got a couple of cheap buckets off the offensive glass in the first half.
6. Cam Tatum is still lacking his pre injury explosiveness. He failed to finish because of a lack of lift at the rim a couple of times.
7. The points guards were so so. My guess is that they're going to be what most of us expect.
8. I'm skeptical whether or not this team is built to press in the manner the head coach wants to. They're long,but they are not overly quick.
9. Kenny Hall's energy is a welcome addition. He'll help against teams like Ole Miss that don't have bruisers in the post.
10. Rome wasn't built in a day. Nothing great or awful out of this one.

| Scotty looked like the guy he was supposed to be coming out of high school. I predict Skyler Mcbee will be a better shooting Dane Bradshaw, he looked as if he was putting a lot into the game tonight. |

| If Scotty keeps going on like that, I'll be proven wrong.

| Lets see, they won by about 40. And yet, you come up with 3 out of 10 positive comments. Forget the fact 14 players played, i.e. it's hard to get into a flow. If Chism, Smith and Hopson played the minutes they will in the regular season, they win by 60.
You're just like all sports writers- tryin to make a story when nothing is there. You can tell nothing by this game but thanks for your input.
What a joke! | |

What a joke! | "Getting in the flow" is going to make Tatum jump higher, Maze able to stay in front of his man, and Prince quit throwing the ball away? It sure didn't last year. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

| Hat, What was your impression of McBee? And also do you think Woolridge gets some quality playing time this year? | |

The deciding factor in whether he can help or not will be whether he can get his shot off and defend when he gets matched with superior athletes. I've qiven up trying to assess Woolridge. Sometimes he looks like a major contributor, sometimes he looks like he should be the last man off the bench at Tusculum. Posted via VolNation Mobile

| Pearl needs to be as creative on defense as he is on offense. UT's defense kept North Alabama in the game during the first half. | |
