BB practice

[Buford_Julep]

Here is how JJ matched them up for the scrimmage:

GREEN..............WHITE

Lee Green.........Scott Roniger

Lenny Hopkins...Germaine Green

Chris Davis........Ty Thomas

Will Smith...........Mike DeGrate

Jel Masters.........Justin Barnett

On Sidelines:

Jerome Rogers, Lance Boxell and Rusty Chiles

Absent but accounted for:

Ron Harris and Antonio McKenzie

Observations:

1. Barnett is taller and heavier than Masters

2. DeGrate seems to be taller than 6-7. He for sure plays big anyway. Very strong and athletic with ability to score.

3. Pencil in Jermaine Green for wing duty this year. Ty Thomas filled in at post when Masters suffered a knee injury. Nothing was broken or torn but the trainer wrapped and iced the knee.

4. Red Mangrum is a grad assistant.

5. Scott Roniger may have picked up the nickname VooDo.

6. This is the first time since Jankovitch's last year that the Mean Green have returning players at every position and are playing a system they have experience with. Remember what happened last year when the same thing could be said about the football team.

Good report, keep them coming, thanks!

Good report.

It is great news if Justin is bigger than Unjel...........wonder if his wingspan is as big.

Is Will Smith any bigger or playing with more confidence?

Buford, thanks for the report. Please keep us informed of the progress of the point guards, which is where we need to see the most improvement IMO.

Thanks for the update!! I think I had seen a post stating S. Byrd had enrolled at UNT and was going to work on getting eligible here instead of going the juco route. Has anyone else heard this and can somebody confirm it one way or another, thanks.
