My hopes for tonight in no particular order are... 1- off ball player movement on offense 2 - connected team defense 3- unselfish play in transition 4- Coach E doesn't yell rebound or get back at all but instead yank out the players who aren't doing it Good list! But considering the only comment I saw reported from Ewing about the scrimmages is that we didn't rebound well - I'm guessing #4 is a pipedream.

Excited to see how Primo plays as the clear #1 guy at PG. I expect Murray to be very good and get 20+ points. Intrigued to see what we have in Mozone and Ezewiro and hopeful that Anglin can be a sniper while providing quality backup minutes for Primo.

This is the game to send nessages, if a player isn't giving effort take him out... Effort cannot be negotiable

FS1 is showing something called “College Basketball” on its schedule tonight at 8.30 eastern but there is no mention of our game. (The Providence game is specifically listed at 6.30.) Anyone know what is going on? I should add that I live in DC.

Anyone know what is going on? I should add that I live in DC. I'm in CT and getting the same. I have fubo and thought it was the way they were listing it, but I did notice it & thought it was strange.

Coppin State has one legit guard (Sessoms), a mid major bench level guard (Tarke) and forward (Winston) and not much else. They have no front court to speak of and they can't shoot. Some reports say Sessoms may not play as he was injured last night. If he doesn't they may be the worst team in college basketball. On top of that these players probably had to ride a bus all night after playing an up and down game last night. I know lower teams have to take money games but this feels a bit unfair to the players. I hope no more get hurt.
I don't see how this isn't a big blowout and that is before they tire out at the end. Q should be able to get 40 if he wants but hopefully we don't just dump it to him as that doesn't help us in the long run. It would be cruel to press them but if we are going to do it we have to work on it. I hope Sessoms plays because he could help break a press and be a measuring stick for Primo. That's about all we could take away from individual player matchups tonight. Without him it is men against boys. Like another poster said judge the defense by open shots give up not whether they go in or not. Also do we run offense to get open shots or do we just bully them. These first two games are extreme cupcakes. Green Bay lost be 27 to Indiana State last night. That is fine with a new team. The wins will be easy but hopefully we will be able to tell a few things about how the team plans to operate.
