*** Boogs v Indiana St ***

great win, love seeing these guys playing good team ball

Best team basketball I think we've played under Bruce. Also the most "Pearl like" the team has every looked to me. That reminded me more of those good UT teams he had than anything we've seen at AU.

I swear if AU admin screws this up I'm gonna need to be bailed out an hour after I get myself into Auburn.
 
shot like garbage and beat the crap out of a decent/good team

6-20 from 3
Brown 0-7 from 3, still scored 15
Heron 3-12 from the field
Harper 3-10 from the field

if you told me our guards shoot that poorly I’d have been very concerned, but we just big boy’d them for 40 minutes

I love not being reliant on Heron for buckets. That's progress. At the same time, we're going to need him to be the man when things are going poorly. Every team needs the guy you give the ball to in order to stop a run or get that clutch hoop. He's gotta get back on track.

Harper is playing so much better this year IMO. Much more complete players. And Brown isn't pouting when the 3's don't drop. He's playing hard and not relying 100% on that long ball.

Pretty ridic we can cruise to 80+ with that kind of lackluster shooting. Love the physicality. Have egg on my face for ranking DESEAN #11 in my SSRs.
 
Honestly, and I'm not just trolling @Denim Vest here, I'm not sure Purifoy gets more than 15 minutes a game with this crew if Wiley is back too. If his defense hasn't gotten immensely better he's not going to see the floor much.
I believe he'll step his game up and earn his mins. Need them all back on the hardwood for our long run in the TOURNEY.
 
Harper is playing so much better this year IMO.

he is... only 2 games, but he looks like a point guard this year - complete control the entire time he’s on the floor

Sweet Jared had 7 assists and 1 turnover today, no forced or quick shots...
Young Davion played 21 minutes and took 0 official shots from the field, 3-4 from the line...

combined, 51 minutes, 9 assists, 3 turnovers... not sure officially on steals and deflections, but my favorite possession of the game was in the first half when they were running weave action on the left and Davion communicated and switched 3 straight handoffs - the wing defender passed off all 3 guys to Davion on top - and all 3 offensive players gave up the ball without even taking a dribble against him... the end result was they got pushed back about 25 feet from the basket and scrambled to get something else going...

that’s such a huge change from last year, and won’t show up anywhere on the stat sheet
 
Desean Murray is my favorite player. He's what we missed so badly from last year with the toughness he brings. 14 points 12 rebounds and just fights like hell for rebounds and 50/50 balls.

Harper with 7 assist and 1 turnover, just really efficient.

I wonder how many times did someone have 12 rebounds in a game last year? Probably less than 5
 
Y'all Danjel boogs so hard on Twitter:



Need to get this hulking young stud back out on the court ASAP.

absolutely... I know he broke rules and has to pay the price, but sucks that he fell victim to a PREDATOR like Chuck, taking advantage of the poor youngster

he’s served his penance and I’m sure he’s learned his lesson and it won’t happen again... let the kid play
