ELITE 8 VS TEXAS - 5:05pm on CBS

[Fluffhead]

these idiots don't seem to realize that it's actually a benefit to students to actually stay in school longer, mature, and learn how to manage their finances before stepping out in the real world. NIL has opened this opportunity up for many student athletes

Stay in school longer, get your degree, learn money management, potentially get to work with and learn from some of the most successful local business people, learn how to own their brand from a younger age which should in theory lead to smarter life decisions… yep, NIL is terrible.

We bought this stock early friend. I remember posting how improved he was in the first exhibition game, he didn’t even look like the same player. People were like “ it’s one game “. Fact is he’s one of the most improved players I’ve seen in awhile from FR to Soph year. On top of that he’s had another bump the second half of the season. People forget all the clutch shots and FT’s he’s hit. On top of saving us against Pitt. Oh did I mention he’s easily the best perimeter defender that locks dudes up? I wouldn’t be shocked if the guy ends up an Acc poy one day.

Wong is playing the best ball I've seen from him at Miami. That 2nd half every shot he hit was a tough one.

And he got screwed on one

And the inbounds play before this was the alley oop. So UT overplays Miller and Wooga is smart enough and well coached enough to take advantage.

Someone else mentioned this already but We outscored Texas 37-17 from Woogas inbound play to himself.

And he got screwed on one

Yeah he did! The defender held his arm he didn’t push off.

Coach L mentioned in his press conference that Wooga had done a fantastic job of guarding Rice. He’s definitely improved by leaps and bounds as a player on both sides of the ball as the season has gone on.

In my opinion, he will be a future star. Very talented player that plays with a lot of energy and is fearless.

that inbound self- pass off the opposing player's *** ending in a resounding dunk pretty ballsy at that juncture of the game.

I just watched the press conference and heard what Coach L said about Wooga on Rice. That is awesome. I wonder who takes Jackson next week. I assume Miller but if UConn plays with 2 big guys, Wooga may have Jackson. 2 great athtetes

How well prepared is he to make that play in that moment on that stage? Our guys have been taught option 1-4 on every play, and when all else fails, go make a play. Wooga made a play.

Not only well prepared but coach encourages these guys to shine. They are fearless and coach is confident enough to let his guys ball as long as they are within the parameters of the game plan.

 

[We'retheBoss]

Wooga is just a straight up ballplayer. He plays smart, does all the little things, defense, hits FTs, etc etc, very Kawhi-esque.

Trusting your players accelerates their growth on the court ... Coach L's patience is out of this world. I would have benched half of them after FSU..

One of the most significant evidence of growth on the court, was our players not jacking up unnecessary shots from 3pt land during the second half...
.. a very different level of maturity and poise compared to our regular season games

I was saying all day yesterday “they’re very streaky, one minute they look great and the next like trash “. Their scouting report played out like their season. Feast or famine.

You were right…though It took them 30 minutes to famine, but I’ll take it.

 

[theibisrules]

In my eyes:

- This team never quits.
- Every guy on the floor is a great PRESSURE free throw shooter, even after running the floor at track speed.
- The coaching is well above average
-All of these guys are a threat to go off at any moment.

Get ready for the fight of your lives young men.

Only one of them has been this far before and that's certainly going to help, not hinder.

One of the things that's always been obvious to me when watching college basketball is the difference in playing styles vs the NBA. In the league, there's a smoothness to the skill level that's just not there in college. In college, players can make shots, players can drive, but it's often chaotic and forced, almost like guys at that level aren't fully in control of their bodies yet. Miller played like an NBA player last night. It was a smoothness that you don't see often in college.
