Down here for work and they’re having a free scrimmage before their international trip to Italy. Some thoughts on what is essentially organized pickup:
First and foremost- the facility is gorgeous. Fertitta is brand new obviously but very impressive.
If Grimes becomes immediately eligible they’re going to be a nightmare defensively. Him and Jarreau are LONG and Grimes is built. Will be able to switch everything.
Alley Jr the undersized 4 made 3 of 5 threes in the first quarter. If he can stretch the floor that opens things up for them offensively as Jarreau likes to go to the rim.
Mills is a legit shooter and the Towson Transfer Gorham is going to be a factor.
Even though it’s just a scrimmage, the defensive effort was impressive. You can tell they’re well coached.
As with all the UH teams since we’ve been in the league, they lack true size in the post which could ultimately be their downfall like last year vs UK. Only guy over 6’8 on the roster is Harris Jr.
Ultimately it’s just a scrimmage but the Coogs have some really impressive athletes on this roster. I expect them to be back in the top 3 this season in the league.
