The two games this week after the Southern Miss loss were key in one aspect to me: We attacked the basket in both games. This is something we did not or could not do against Southern Miss. With Appleby out (who is great at attacking the basket), we had a great week of attacking the basket both offensively and defensively.
Kenyon McNeail had a three lined up that he usually would pull the trigger on, but instead, he pump fakes and takes it to the basket. Great play, and it shows that our guys are continuing to learn and grow. I hope we continue to gel, and I hope we get to peak at the right time. I don't think we've seen the whole package to this team yet. We've been playing very fluid at times, but we still have potential to grow. This could be an exciting year I think.
