Up close…..

Biggest surprises :

Akok, gaffney.

Undewheliming : Cole , Whaley.

I don’t like our starting lineup. I like our whole lineup and all our players. All of them.  I think ( and its been proven the last couple games against cupcakes) that our starting lineup is one of our most ineffective mix of players of all possible mix and match lineups.

1st half today the bench outscored starters 25-12.

We cannot have a slow to start offense starting against Auburn ( as the next game for example) . It does us no good to be down 8 at the first TV timeout.   I love Whaley, he will be a vital cog in our team the whole season , but Akok should start at 4 . It allows both Isaiah and Akok to be better than they have been. Akok is recovered.

Cole? He’s a vet and equally important, so I expect him to start. But there is no doubt that through 4 games gaff is better. In this case I don’t mind gaff coming off bench, but RJ really needs to pick it up. He’s not been more than serviceable.  That’s not good enough for our aspirations.

The rest of team pretty much gets “ as expected”
