I actually don't think Macklin and Roy played together that much, only about 6 minutes. It will probably be lower than that for the most part, as Ewing was really bad today and Summers had foul trouble. We even went with 4 guards for a while today.
I still don't know what to think of Macklin - he doesn't seem to be very good on D, and his rebounding is still disappointing. Hopefully he can at least get involved in the offense a bit.

So games will start Tuesday now? I assume they aren't moving the Saturday night final, but I haven't seen confirmation

I'm starting to think that Sims might actually have a chance to start next year.

At this point, are any road games besides Ball State not televised?
Edit - looks like DePaul is the only other, I think.

It was his first game and he played like it. One of the announcers predicted that Durant and Green would go #1 and #2 for ROY. Actually I think it was his 4th.

I didn't use "true guard," I used "small guard" and "wing." In your first post you said we'd have 3 true guards, plus Wattad - that was the one I didn't quite get.

SF,
Why didn't you include Freeman as a "true guard?" Is the idea that he'll have to play SF because Summers will be gone?
I doubt Freeman or Wright leave after two years. 1 of them probably won't even start next year, and neither will be able to put up huge stats in our system. Besides that, guys their height are less likely to leave early.

I wouldn't be shocked if he did. A recent Rivals article said he wasn't going to commit until next summer.

My biggest concern about Macklin is still defense, which I never would have thought before he got here. He isn't a particularly good on the ball defender, and even in Kenner was a terrible shot blocker for his size. I like the rebounding and am even optimistic about his offense, but I don't understand why he is a non-factor on defense.
As for Rivers . . . well, let me just say that I hope I've seen the last of his pull up jumper.

Nobody knows how old Riek is, apparently.
I'd also like to note that Rivals barely had any updates from events this summer, so my guess is that any ranking changes are based on very little and therefore almost totally meaningless.

I didn't see the game, so maybe I'm out of line, but Roy should be embarrassed. Everyone has been talking about him as the difference-maker and his statistics were pathetic. Uruguay has to be one of the worst teams in the field (along with Virgin Islands and the US I guess). I'd have thought that after the Sapp defense comment, you wouldn't be looking to take another beating.

GIGA is always overly quick to back current players and overly quick to bash incoming ones. I don't let it bother me anymore. Probably because the vast majority of the board assumes that our incoming players are vastly superior to our returning players. If Giga is quick to bash Chris and others, then others are quick to bash Jon and Jessie. That is true for sure, but, as they say, two wrongs don't make a right. My guess is that GIGA is actually directing his hostility at the people you mention, but it often comes off as being directed at incoming players.

At the very least he has shown much more than Wattad in Kenner.
