I know. And to me he should be much more of a bully out on the field that what he has been. I have been rooting for him his entire career to do that. He could be a lot better if he starts doing that and he has gotten better at that this season.

Was just pointing that out to BB since he has been asking for that for a while now.

If he had DaRick Rogers attitude and physicality the guy would be unstoppable.

Watching Mizzou in these SEC Championship games makes me think of Radiohead... "I don't belong here..."

Definitely agree. The kid is phsyically gifted. Just waiting for that light to get brighter. I think he gets a lot of balls next season (barring any stupid play calling).

I just shake my head. I don't know how they got into the SECCG. Talk about one of the luckiest teams in the NCAA the past 2 years. They were good last year, but not SECCG worthy. And this year....bad. Good DL, meh everything else except for Hansbrough.

I'd say UGA would, but then they lost to two 6 win teams.

At least their losses were to bowl eligible teams. Mizzou got thumped by that same UGA team and lost to Indiana. They have been way overhyped. They caught the two weakest teams from the west and beat up on 6/7 win teams an cream puffs out of conference.

I've never liked Mizzou being in the SEC to begin with. They simply don't fit and shouldn't be here. Then they play weak schedules and get overhyped.

Don't get me wrong. The DL is legit and they are a quality, well coached team. But they aren't as good as they are made out to be.

Bama could hang 50 on them.

Basketvols always surprise on the upside to me. Tyndall is showing himself to be a good coach.

Cuonzo was losing to Austin Peay at home his first year. Tyndall revamped the entire roster in a month and has us competitive.

I agree - no comparison. Zo talked defense and they were decent at it. Donnie has them playing real defense. If you can be tough on D you can stay in a lot of games. The match-up Pitino style D is a great equalizer. If only they had a natural PG. There are some guys that can score on this team and they will get better at it as the season goes along. But having Josh handle the ball takes away from his natural flow. Not much of a choice at this point - has to do it.

I'm hoping Punter can take the point at some point during the season. He isn't there yet though.

Yep. I agree. I think he's doing great with what he's got. It's impressive. Hope he gets through this NCAA mess. We might have three very good coaches in football, basketball and baseball. Makes for a fun fall, winter and spring.

And UGA lost to two of the worse teams in the division, in games they couldn't afford to lose (one didn't even have to pass the ball).

The reality here was no one was could and Bama was getting a cakewalk. The difference in the East teams being here is pretty the difference between Bama being up 21-3 at half or 28-7.

:good!:

100% agree. They are all on the cusp of doing really good stuff with Donnie needing to put the crap in the rear view mirror. They all three can flat coach and have the perfect attitude for it IMO.
