You do realize they only count the final score, don't you. We are playing Smallwood and McCoy.

Does it count against a Division IV opponent?

Not sure. Good point. It might not because its an exhibition.

This is not an exhibition game. It counts in every way except RPI calculatons

Darling with a steal and a dunk.

Seems like you would be ok with your son, luis redshirting since he is clearly not good enough yet. I'm sure they aren't forcing him to redshirt.

Not really, its not like we are currently setting the basketball world on fire, after this dub still 2-3.

So in your mind, because the team is not doing well, you should burn a years eligibility for a few minutes against a d2 opponent?

Lol you're one funny guy or gal.

A few years of eligibility? How often does basketball players redshirt? Davis had two, Haase had none, and Eshan had two but burned one last year. Put it like this if this kid is as bad as you think why recruit him. At one point he was the highest rated recruit we had. If you look at his film you can see the kid can play. The offers and interest he had alone proves this. Also how terrible could he be compared to any UAB recruit we've seen lately? Could be Collins or Calhoun, or Hoopy or Watts, or Norton or AJ all decent guys in their on way.

I saw a * by it somewhere and the * said it was an exhibition game.
Maybe it is for the opponent?

Lingering hip problem.

It should be an exhibition game.

Not a few years, a year.

Your perception of offers is not consistent with reality. Lots of kids have early interest, not offers. But some of the recruiting sites don't distinguish. And, sometimes kids don't even know the difference until they put out a final 3 only to realize that he didn't have firm offers from any of the three. (RB)

I think redshirting a not ready freshman is a good idea for a players long term future. I wish we would have redshirted Cam Moore as a freshman.

And he is still afraid to play little ole UAB.

From what I understand, it was not Ehsan's decision to redshirt Denzell Watts last year. It was Watts. It was also Watt's decision to come off redshirt when Norton got hurt.

I'm tired of these non-D1 games.

MB is correct.

It’s an exhibition for them not us. It’s happened before.

Guye had fluid removed from his hip. Lingering issue. Questionable for Memphis

Cokley had 13, but didn't shoot well. 4 of 10 from the field. Only had 4 rebounds. Lavender had 6 rebounds and 7 assists. Lee with a double double and five blocks

He's played UAB and lost to Davis.

Welp HaHa just mentioned he's not worried about points and rebounds just his blocks. I guess it goes blocks,rebounds, and then points.
