Just to piggyback sort of on your post, I do think that as a general practice this season, Hurley will be making more of an effort to decrease the minutes his primary five or six players are playing. By the game a few minutes less, each player across the board, spread out over the season, will...

I think Furphy will play. His 43% 3 point shooting, his ability to facilitate, get his own shot, his physicality and toughness, just his on-court IQ , all of this gives the staff the flexibility to mix him with any number of lineups.

I read some stuff a ways back from the coaching staff, I think it was Hurley. Plain and simple, Mahaney started because he was one of the better players coming out of the summer sessions, he was on a good trajectory. Then the season started, he had some matchups where he got smoked, getting beat...

We don't win those championships without Newton. He controlled the offense.

Can we not spend all summer knocking down Ross. He came back to compete for playing time against several really good players and that took some balls and confidence too. I'll give the man my respect and hope he finds his way into the rotation.

Gotta add this, " This summer, Australia's U19 national team ran much of their offense through Furphy at the FIBA tournament by asking him to come off screens or come through actions and then make the right decisions with the ball in his hands, even if he wasn't technically the team's...

Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it. Y'all have a beautiful Sunday.

How good are those upper seats?

I got two tickets right off the rip. There might be more, you could take a look.

Another way to get him on the floor.

Wow! That's a serious endorsement of Jacob Furphy. With his international experience and style of play one of his strengths will be helping to keep our team offense flowing, and making the players around him better. I'm sure he will get his points too. We are so loaded this year, definitely...

@RuffRuff , I'm comparing last year to this year. There is a lot of maturing going on in this age bracket.

8 minutes of Jaden Ross from 2024/2025. I gotta give Jaden props for sticking with it, and competing with some very good players for minutes. This year he looks filled out, baby fat gone. Tougher, stronger, has a more serious look to him. https://x.com/UConnMBB

I'm sure there will be some other stuff.

I'm gonna walk that back. I've been watching some summer league highlights of Cam Spencer, and he is more fluid than I thought with a very tight handle. Furphy legitimately reminds me of Cam though, how he seeks space in the defense.
