I love this! Whenever we go to a town where the Bearcat faithful live someone jumps in to be the host tour guide! Or if there's a recruit in that part of the country, someone chimes in to give us some inside info. Love this!

That said, I've watched two of their games so far, and while they do have a lot of shooters, imo they are not a team that whips the ball around with crisp passes mixed with drive and kicks to find open shooters. Per synergy, their most efficient half court offense came from the PnR ball handler which I'd assume is mostly #15. Unless they get Cane/Jenifer stuck on him, I really just don't think he's capable of getting into the paint on our defense and creating efficient looks. He also looked to kinda just physically overwhelm guys on his drives. I don't think that is going to fly vs us. They also somehow had a very good defense at the rim according to fg%, but they really only have 1 true big. And I don't think he ever had to face guys like Gary or Kyle throughout the year. Whenever Gary and Kyle are on the court together, one of them should have a field day on the offensive glass. Both of them are 3+ inches taller and almost 30 lbs heavier than their 4 man. They're outside the top 100 on kenpom in offense and defense despite being 96 overall. We're a pretty nice sized favorite, oddsmakers like our chances, virtually every computer rating and advanced metric have us as one of the top 7-8 teams that are title contenders. Yes title contender, not just F4 (even idk about that but that's the consensus) Oh yeah... And umm... Well... we're also really f***ing good too, so there's that :-) |

Any one looked at the box scores from Georgia State guard D'Marcus Simonds?
Holy crap, what a score Has scored 20+ 19 times or so And has put us as many as 39 points. Not a great 3 point shooter but can really draw fouls and get in the lane. Will be a tough matchup for even Jacob Evans. But UC gonna advance. Gary Clark won't have it any other way. |

If they run pick and roll with a small lineup, our ability to switch bigs onto guards should negate much of what they're used to doing.

LOL Ron Hunter said his team was the best defensive team in the country.
