[QUOTE="WARDFORTHREE, post: 1429853, member: 40650"] Fun game to watch, but it mostly felt like we didn't have a chance. Our size will really hinder us this season. If coach underwood could get long athletic guys (think VCU under smart) it would be scary. Can you imagine length pressuring the ball like we do? Goodness. They just out talented us tonight. A quick comment on Giorgi...his play just shows what one summer with our staff will do. Give credit to Coach O. He really has begun to mold Giorgi into a ball player. I think other bigs will have to take notice if a kid that avg 9 pts in HIGH SCHOOL, comes in and plays like this. Also, Fletch really took GB under his wing and has helped him a ton. This kid wants to work and it is showing. I like this team, but we don't have the talent to compete on the big stage yet. If TF doesn't put up 27 (is that right?!?) in the second half we get blown out. This is showing why recruiting is so vital. We need talent and length for this thing to really get going. [/QUOTE]
