Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

I think GR3 leaving would be a mistake. He's been playing as a 3rd, 4th option all year. He definitely has the measurables, but if he works on his game and be more aggressive. He could be in the top 5, maybe top 3.

11 weeks 4 days ago I've been wanting the bball

I've been wanting the bball team to play two bigs for a while. Our offense works best when our team gets rebounds or turnovers and go on fast break opportunities.  

It seems like every time somebody drives past our weak perimeter defense, our big goes up to defend the layup and then nobody is there to rebound the ball.

Honestly looked like a veteran after some early jitters. But who can blame him considering the line not blocking too well. Really liked his decision making on deciding when to run and the hard counts to draw the other teams offside and the awareness to throw downfield for a free play is something I haven't seen in a long time.  I'll take this good performance for now, just kinda wished that he would have taken more QB snaps prior to Nebraska

Does he really not have a spot at Florida anymore? I haven't been following this situation that closely. If that's the case link please.

Honestly thought the only real terrible throw belomy had was that interception. It looked like the receiver was open and he just didn't have enough juice on it. A lot were drop balls and he was getting rushed left and right cause our oline is far from Alabama.

31 weeks 3 hours ago I hope the offense works more

I hope the offense works more on screen passes. Like the one to Toussaint. Seems like a good play to run against aggressive defenses and shorter throwing distance should help I would think.

1 year 13 weeks ago I honestly didn't really

I honestly didn't really follow the knicks-hornets game that closely, It was a laggy feed for when I did watch but it seemed like they were just sluggish overall, not just Lin, but the rest of the Knicks as well. 

Not exactly sure what the factors were, maybe a combination of coming down from a 2 week high, fatigue, looking past the lowly hornets and towards the defending champions, but his weaknesses aren't new information and im sure it's been on many scouting reports. The Mavs are supposed to be one of the better defensive teams and they decided to double and trap him many times during the game but he still pulled out a good one

1 year 13 weeks ago Both, he's not exactly a

Both, he's not exactly a scrub and has put up good numbers against good teams. Still pretty raw (turnover prone and not good going left) but the knicks really need him. Their offense is stagnant whenever he is out and thats why he has to play a ridiculous amount of minutes.

 Skills + Wins + Underdog story + Asian American angle + NY Hype machine = "Linsanity"

2 years 27 weeks ago imo it looked like Denard was

imo it looked like Denard was benched for performance issues and or possibly a "breather" like RR said,  but he was put back in because the team was deep on the wrong end of the field so they put denard in as an extra running threat and when the team was in a comfortable field position Tate came in.

2 years 28 weeks ago posted from iPhone

Honestly maybe it's because I watch a lot of philly eagles football, but I would like to have a lot more dline pressure and put our purest corners on their wr and let them learn the hard way if necessary. This death by a thousand paper cuts is no way to go imo. It takes away opportunities from our O, tires our D, and just seems like a big momentum killer after giving up a first down on each third and long. Even I can complete those passes with the amount of time other teams qb gets.

2 years 28 weeks ago I was just about to post this

I was just about to post this same exact comment, Why would they even take him out when he is avg 10 yards a carry and just picked up a first down.

2 years 31 weeks ago *also raises hand*

I predicted at least 8-4 before the season... but that was also before 5 million transfers and Woolfolk going down.

Expectations:

Denard:  ↑

Linebackers: ↓

2 years 31 weeks ago Can you imagine the stats

Can you imagine the stats Denard can put up once Michigan field's a competent defense that can actually stop some teams from going on longgggg drives and giving Denard even more cracks at other team's defense.

It has only just begun.
