Savor every single second of Will wearing orange and blue because jeez is he special.

 

[Doogie94]

Will Riley is upgraded to a 6* recruit in my book!

 

[PizzaHutParkingLot]

Are we sure we’re getting two years of Will?

 

[foby]

Growing up one game at a time.

 

[GTL Adam]

Will Riley absorbing all of Ty’s minutes will be a net positive for this team.

 

[Doogie94]

Recruits are going to take notice of this offensive output and NBA type gameplan.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Tomi will be a massive problem for every team that doesn’t have a legit center. Offensively, he’s got the goods. We need him healthy. Please, no more injury scares.

I know it's just the first game, but when the chemistry builds and everyone gets comfortable in their roles...look out.

 

[FloridaMan]

Will Riley is real good. A lot of good pieces, need to improve the D, but we can rebound and score that is for sure.

 

[SAELION]

WILL RILEY...

 

[New Creation]

We didn’t dunk the ball once today…

41 3s

WR 31 points

TI double double

KJ pretty court vision. Will chose to take over a game if needed.

My one concern. KB and TW


1-0!

Some legitimate weapons…just need time to gel

 

[JKR]

Broke school record for 3's taken at 42. Johnson tied freshman record for rebounds in a game at 6 (in 15 minutes).

He's 17 years old. 17. Years. Old.

 

[LoveLovie]

We are good!

 

[OskeeLoyalty]

Anyone know if we broke those schools records? 40 taken 18 made (think that's what I read?)

 

[Doogie94]

Morez:

15 min
8 Reb
6 blocks!

If he plays 30 minutes, he gets a double-double with rebounds and blocks!!!
