Team still had their minds in the Bahamas for the first half. Decided to play several minutes of bball in the second half and put the game away. That team was horrible. 6-24 last year. 1-3 going into out game. They had "bun-dude" out there who basically had as much skill as you'd find at any good pick-up court. They also had what looked like a 150 lb guy out there a lot as well. Did we keep moving the ball to get the ball to our athletes on these kids and just take them to the rim....nope. We seemed a bit out-of-sorts trying to play two new players (and CJ Walker was in street clothes again; Durr didn't play). I thought we were subbing too much but Dawkins was trying to experiment, as well as get everyone minutes. Nobody could get into any rhythm. Hopefully, we lock down a tighter rotation by the time conference play starts. The rotation through the Ok State game seems like the best we could do, to date. Sunday will be a good test vs Miami.
 
Id rather give everyone Playing time because injuries happen. Need everyone to be able to come in. Years past weve only played 7 or 8 guys and they got tired. 5 straight under 60 points is hard to do. Johnson back helps. The new PG turns ball over too much. Sylla can shoot and has length. I just want to make tourney for a change and have a chance.
