First off, great win for the Fighting Schaefers yesterday. They're a legit SEC title and Elite 8/Final Four contender.
Relatively pleased with the men this weekend too. The UCF game was a wake up call, but they really responded well against Boise and UTEP. Especially on defense.
Holman seems to have really improved. Carter and Peters can be absolutely lethal from beyond the arc. Need to get a little more out of Kegler, Wright, and Herard, but I expect that to happen as the season goes along.
I hope Q's wrist is ok. It's his nonshooting wrist, and he played through it yesterday, but he clearly seemed a little off because of it.
Lehigh on Friday is a definite trap game. They have a really good big man and only lost by three to Xavier, who is a Top 10 team. Also beat a solid Princeton team. Don't be shocked if we lose this one.
At 3-1 with our big nonconference tournament behind us, I think the expectation at this point should be 9-3 going into SEC play. We will be favored in every game until January, so that allows about two hiccups while still giving us a really respectable record to build on. I'll be extremely happy with anything above that.
