Hopefully Deion can take advantage of the true freshman point.

There is a link in the article for a free 24 hour trial to bein sports

Three freshmen and two sophomores .

Hmmmmm...

I'm not putting much stock in their age. Auburn's freshmen can play. They are very talented. Purify may be one of the best in the country. This will be a tough test

Yep yep, thats why i was talking about the point position. Baxter will have his hands full all night.

Hopefully Deion can have him a 20 point game on the smallish freshman.

This would be a great game for Deion show what he's got. I think Norton had a 20 point game before.

At some point he will break out. Hopefully it is tonight. I believe he has the chance to be good, just needs to build confidence

He HAS been good, just not outstanding. Outside of the first 2 games, he's been very solid. He just hasn't had his true break out game yet

Why is that? Do you think its playcallling? I think it is bit ive only seen a game and just check the boxscore now. I think its crazy we still run this three guard set and we dont have great athletes like in years past.

I'm not really sure, Dee. I just think he's not really looking for his own shot very much yet. He's quietly been very solid though.
