********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********

Think he's been given a lot of reps defending the perimeter, which he's shown strong ability to do as a big guy.
He's also not a shot blocker like we're accustomed to having, which I think is why Cal likes Gabriel on the floor so much and why our athletic guards are such a needed bonus.
I also think by the end of the year Bam will be a solid shot blocker. He's got all the tools and Cal and KP have too good a track record, even with undersized or under talented guys.
But it'll be a process. These kids can't learn and master everything all at once. Thankfully there's no one better at this particular process than our coach.
If Ulis were having the game Briscoe is having (and has had so far this season) you guys would start a million threads and build a statue for him.
Briscoe is leading the youngsters by example tonight
Those were in transition against SFA. Tonight they aren't stopping the driving lanes. No need to give it up.
The real test is Tuesday night. We played awful in the first half but the 2nd half we have looked much better. Bam needs to assert himself more down low if we want to beat Michigan state. After tuesday Kansas will fall out of the top ten even though I hope they beat puke
Gotta remember this team is learning like all the young teams Cal has had and will be. Enter come march. With that said, this team is ahead of the curve at the guard position unlike past teams like the twins and Teague.
Guys, just imagine how good this team will be by January.........give them time to grow up a bit, allow Cal to work his magic, and we're going to be a monster of a team.
