Rayvon is not going to sit on bench all year like last year. Somethings amiss A thirty point lead and he still can't get on the court for a few minutes
I like what I'm seeing from Hickman. Directing traffic, pointing out assignments etc. That's what's been missing last few years someone to be "coach"on the floor.

In an interview with Wes Miller it was ask about keeping so many players happy and his response was it's a good problem to have. But in this climate of transferring it's not a good problem to have if your not keeping everyone happy. That's my long winded way of saying I'm glad Rayvon got in and even got some points.
A dominant win against an opponent a team like UC should dominate. Don’t read much into this as APB is ranked ~350 of ~360 teams. UC did what was expected - took APB to the woodshed.

I'm excited for this win because the offense was efficient from almost any distance. Recent BEarcat teams have not had so many prolific scorers, and our number of open/contested made three's has me feeling giddy for this team. Yeah it was the #350 team, but given how tough we played nearly every Big 12 Team last year, a few missed/made 3's would've been the difference.
Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.
This was my first time seeing the team in action in the arena. Here are my thoughts:
Bandaogo is much more polished this year and will give us good minutes down low. Page will give him some relief if he can stay out of foul trouble.
Mitchell needs to stay away from forcing the ball to score on offense like he did early in the game. Mitchell started having success scoring in the second half when he made himself available down low under the basket. Whether he scores or not, Mitchell brings a lot to the team on defense and will disruptive to opposing teams.
Jizzle James is back with his explosiveness and will be the team leader at point guard. Look for Conner Hickman to give him relief at that position during the game. He has a different style than Jizzle but can score when needed and plays strong defensively.
Skillings is clearly our most potent weapon on both offensive and defense. Dan was first to a double-double with 17 points and 11 assists. When he is on the floor the team has a second team leader.
When the ball is falling for Lukosius we will be hard to beat. He was 3-5 from three point range with a team high of twenty points. Even when Simas has an off night shooting he will help the team with his defensive play.
In the limited minutes logged by both Betsy and Griffith they both demonstrated a nice stroke and could help the team when it needs an offensive boost.
This is just my opinion, I may be wrong, fell free to correct me, but Fredrick looked like a deer in the headlights (especially on defense) when he was in the floor. His play appeared tentative. I didn't watch Reed on defense but I saw nothing positive or negative during his playing time.
Oh yea, the big guys still haven't figured out how to make free throws..
I was totally surprised when Dzellat took the floor in the last minute. I thought the team was still trying to get him eligible to play. Does anyone have an update on Dzellat's eligibility?
Overall the team has taken a huge step forward from last year in talent, play and effort. I was happy to see Miller on the sideline still coaching the team like the game was on the line even after we were up forty points. I'm looking forward to successful season.
