the amazon driver will now toss all packages into your neighbors front yard, the one surrounded by the chain link, and filled with a couple of dobermans who always act as if you smell like back bacon.

My guess is that Hurley is inclined to choose the more defensive oriented player. He is old school. But he is such a good motivator and defensive coach, and hasn’t given anybody reason to suspect he is a good offensive coach. Please play the best offensive players and coach them up on D.
Our offense was much better than our defense last year. Top 25 offense last year.

The Karaban/Johnson starting spot seems really simple. We heard all summer it was a tight battle with Karaban having a slight lead. Karaban got hurt 2 weeks before the season and then barely played/practiced leading up to game 1. No need to overthink this

If Karaban still starts after Samson comes back, it's possible we see them sweep these awards more often than we don't.

Is having the best player and best freshman 2 weeks in a row good?

Karaban is a stat stuffing machine but… Donovan if he played a few more minutes? He could be BE freshman of the year the way he has started out.

Honestly it could have been Clingan this week, even though he had an "off" game vs. UNCW. "Off" meaning 2pts/6reb/2blk in 12 minutes

For the week he averaged 9.7 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 2.3 BPG shooting 87% in 3 games
Minus UNCW he averaged 13.5 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 2.5 BPG shooting 80% in 2 games

The way he is playing and the way Hurley trusts and plays him big minutes, AK will be a runaway BE FOY.

Really love AK. The impact that he makes when he is out there is extremely noticeable.
He looks like he knows what he's doing. Except for that one ugly brick from 3!

some think he may go this weekend. But, they have been VERY vague as to timing. most feel it is either the weekend or the following week.
He had a somewhat similar injury to Jackson and it happened earlier, so it definitely seems like he should be back fairly soon.
