Did I see Rob Phinesee in uniform ? Does that mean he may be close to returning?

Phinisee was in street clothes in a boot with crutches. John Newman was in street clothes, walking unaided, but with a slight limp.

Good to see Reed get some minutes. I do not think that he was very productive though.

Anyone else having problems with the ESPN+ stream? Mine streams for a little and then says unable to stream-check back later.

Nice first half. Doesn’t seem like we’ll have a lot of low scoring 56-52 games under coach Miller.

I don't know, what does it say?

it is their new goal I guess. Unless, they are for giving second chances and not winning games alone.How do you feel about those two former Xavier coaches last job's performances.

What does that say about win at all costs at two local schools.

Somewhere in all this I had forgotten that Travis Steele had taken the Miami job.

P.S. JD was the most effective when he did come off the bench under Brannen. He was the designated energy boost. As a starter JD seems to have it in his head that he has to be the leading scorer or that he's not gonna reach double figures. I like JD a lot and not disrespecting him but as a starter he puts us in crutches way too regularly trying to get his share of points.

[Rufus]

Not looking to stir up JD hate, which seems to be plentiful on social media but... how about Ody Oguama starting at PF with JD off the bench as the 6th man?


or Hensley even. With Hensley you still have the capabilities of scoring the three and the height and athleticism to mix it up under the rim. He hustles, can drive to the rim when the opportunity arises and is not prone to shoot the three with only 6 seconds ticked off the clock.

Good post Leo. I couldn't agree more.
