Halftime
Jones looks like he has potential. Nice and one.
29-26 - Southern at halftime.

Lance Jones is starting to get it, he looks great today. This is where, while you don't want to see Aaron Cook get hurt, getting Lance Jones these minutes could be huge going forward.
It's been a long time since our coaches have been getting players minutes. Meatball and PT would have kept his minutes down and played someone else.

Very promising that they didn't fold under the big SLU run.

Good half. We did a solid job controlling the clock. I love it when we release Domask to the basket. Jones is gaining confidence.
This is my first look at these guys. Not bad.
Being outscored 17-0 by thier bench I wouldn't have thought we'd be up. But we're scorching them in the paint.

It's really exciting that the two best players on the court for us today are TRUE FRESHMEN. I can't recall that happening since... well...ever.
If only Suggs and McGill went struggling so badly with their shooting. I kind of expected that of Suggs, but not from McGill.

What is that now - five shot clock violations?

Travis Ford appears to be getting outcoached in the 1st half. He was pretty po'd during the halftime interview on FSN. We will see how the 2nd half goes.
No matter the outcome I'm enjoying watching these young guys play.
Benson looks pretty darn good. Too bad we only get him for a year.

It is frustrating, but draining every second of the clock is what is keeping us in the game.

Agreed. I think he will get better as the season progresses and he continues to knock the rust off.
