One too many Crawfords.  If Ousmane could improve his touch around the basket, he’d be front and center in the discussion about the elite college bigs in the nation.  

If this game is any indication, it looks like he is improving his touch.

Better Bill and he’s had a really good game tonight, but still too many misses from 2 feet to be counted among the elite bigs IMHO.

I know how you hate the term Mid-Major but I would contend that Abou is approaching an elite big in that arena.

He’s already that, I think.  He has the potential of being in the upper echelons. Free throws have improved (+++). Haven’t checked the numbers, but they seem better.  He makes a great move to get an open shot and it bangs hard off the backboard.  Fix that and he’ll be unstoppable.

Abou and Rubin playing up to their skill level has been the clear turning point of the season. In stride at the perfect time. 

That and I also think Huntsberry is really hitting his stride now. He's figured out where he fits on the floor, and what he can do that other can't. He has been driving so much to the lane and looking very good doing it.

I'm digging the Mean Pink uniforms the women are wearing tonight.

I couldn't say this kind of thing without being harassed by my friends at Pauline G. Hughes Middle School, but pink is a great color for sports teams.

    • This is really cool considering that we're located in a significant zone and it will be happening during the game. To your question, I don't recall any major sports activity experiencing a > 80% eclipse.  I'm sure it's happened, but probably pretty rare. Note: This is the last annular solar eclipse that will be visible from the United States until June 21, 2039. Here's an animation of the affects/times for the entire Earth. https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2023/
    • The practice facility wasn't an issue getting Perry to NT.   Obviously it attracted you to NT also...
    • The odds line has went from Navy -5 to -6 points for our game. Navy hosted USF last weekend.  Navy controlled the clock 31 min to 29 min (expected with a running offense).  Navy rushed 48 times for 254 yds.  USF 44 times for only 135 yards.  However, Navy only passed 11 times for 90 yards, compared to USF passing 34 times for 338 yards.  In summary Navy had 59 plays to USF's 78 plays.  USF won 44-30. Navy will get their yards rushing, but we have to get a lot more passing!
    • Last 2 games against inferior schools (Dallas Adamson  & Dallas Spruce), Kerry had a 75 yard pick 6 (Adamson) and a 77 yard pick 6 against Spruce. Their overall secondary got off to a shaky start of the season but is improving. 
    • I had a great time as I usually do.  Some great observations made in this thread.  I drive right at 2 hours to the games, so I got a head start on the drive home and didn’t stay for the drone show.  I wanted to, but I knew I could be about halfway home by the time it ended.  Glad to hear it was worth staying for though.  Next time I might choose to stay. Minor complaint:  Why can’t the NE scoreboard show more scores?  It kept showing the same 9 scores over and over.  I’ve noticed in the past they don’t show a lot of scores, but never realized it was so few.  I don’t want scores constantly running, but maybe during a timeout run through 20-30 different games.
