[L. Wade Childress]

First sub of the season! Guess who!!!

 

[nolookpass]

I ain't no Tavern Hok, boyz.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Maybe howard shouldnt be shooting 3s

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

McCollum is very quick on D against Illinois Springfield's PG who is not a strong ballhandler.

Waukee's finest has also hit a 3.

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

McKeever with a missed dunk. On the court with the Pear, who does NOT look like a pear at all. He has transformed his body.

Asked the ole AI bots if there was a discount code to get BTN+ for near free and found a promo for $2.99 a month. YOUTH27

Or it’s free on YouTube

 

[roseboundhawk]

Twin towers look for most of the first half.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Doesn't seem to bode well for Thompson

 

[CleteyColgate]

I love seeing a kid like Peyton McCollum contributing to an Elite 8 team.

(Thanks)

 

[douglasbader]

Coon's shot. Woof.

I’ll take it

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

McCollum and Coleman have played a lot together.

LWade.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

21 minutes for Peyton McCollum.

probably just an outlier.

 

[roseboundhawk]

Jirak was probably the most pleasant surprise of that game. He looked better than McKeever.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

 

[CleteyColgate]

I hope Peyton plays 21 minutes a game so I can come here after every game and hit refresh over and over while drinking a case of Miller Lite.

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

7 assists in 14 minutes for a 7’3 dude.

 

[CleteyColgate]

Jirak was probably the most pleasant surprise of that game. He looked better than McKeever.

For a guy we're paying $2M you'd think he could dunk and rebound. Expecting too much

 

[Revolver]

I’m choosing to believe that McCollum lurks on this board and just played his boy because he knew what fags the Cul-de-sac Crew would be about it.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Someone tell me what I should think having not watched that

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Thompson feels like the next Hauser

Matteoni played the same amount of minutes as Manyawu and L. Wade is still bitching about Peyton McCollum’s minutes.

Non lwade version pls

 

[Revolver]

Non lwade version pls

We played some shit school. You didn’t watch. I didn’t watch. It doesn’t matter what happened.

 

[Fletch]

Thompson feels like the next Hauser

Cole?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

7 assists in 14 minutes for a 7’3 dude.

he had a left handed touch pass in traffic from the post that the shooter didn’t have to move for. It was insane.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I posted a couple data points from the box score. If you think I’m bitching, that’s on you.

It’s almost like Gus and Dad were whiny bitches that are gonna claim RATT.

I thought he looked just fine. Went to the game.

 

[The Dad]

Speaking of whiny bitches… are you spiking the football after you won the coin toss? Premature ejaculator!!!

 

[The Dad]

If Jirak plays big minutes this team will be extremely fun to watch!

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I agree. He was playing the appropriate level of opponent.

My other takes based on intermittent viewing (distracted by HS VB):

-we are a very large team. Like huge.
-Coleman is pretty small
-overall athleticism may be a problem, and ball handling.
-wanted to see much, much more of Harris, Coons, and Thompson

 

[AZmessDAWG]

No you called he’ll never be any good. Whiny bitch.

 

[Pinehawk]

If you’re 7’3” tall, I‘d like more than two points against an exhibition team. Couldn’t find any way to take advantage of that size?

Centers are facilitators in McCollums offense. I wouldn’t expect much scoring

Oh for the love of fuck. Are you really going to be dork IowaFan on this?

It's an exhibition. It means less than nothing.

 

[The Dad]

He proved tonight he’d be pretty good against D2 competition. Congrats you dumb little fuckwit.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

And you’re a bitch. Congrats!!!

 

[Pinehawk]

I guess I expected they would feed him down low where he would dominate, because he’s huge, and they couldn’t match up. But, guess not.

Have you watched their offense?

 

[Pinehawk]

One season of it.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

I’d like to see a revised season-long breakdown of minutes with McCollum at 21 or more because that’s clearly where this is headed. He’s too important to play less than that.

 

[The Dad]

How retarded does someone have to be to spike a football after an exhibition game against Illinois Springfield?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

The reason Jirak is even on the roster is the exact reason why McKeever won’t be a consistently huge scorer. They space eaters and good passers.

maybe this year. I expect that number to go down once his brother gets here.
