First Game vs Memphis - Friday November 10th - 5:30 CST
- Thread starter CajunCrimson
- Start date
Couldn't watch the game live so just finished watching. Wow! Schaffer helped out when it was needed. Petty started tight but really played well once he got going. Jones is the real deal. Ingram took over during parts of the game. Hall was dominate; I think it is for real but he had a few big games last year when he had the other teams outsized. Tonight, Hall looked a little smoother and more coordinated than in the past. Reese plays smart and has good hands. Smith is strong and physical.
What a crazy start and really the whole 1st half with the fouls and turnovers. Some of the fouls were bogus and some were boneheaded plays by young players. Nice to learn and win at the same time.
Memphis guards were pretty quick but I don't think there will be anybody quicker than Sexton. Memphis lost a bunch of players from last season and are relying on juco's. They still look like they are trying to figure out how to play together.
Coach Johnson and staff did an excellent job during the game.

Just got home and settled in. Frankly, I'm surprised at the score considering everything that's been going on with this team. Great job and win.
Hard not to be excited after watching tonight. Got contributions everywhere to overcome the obstacles.
I love every player on this team. Awesome to watch what these kids and the coaches are putting together.
Just watched the recording (took our daughter and 5 other 10-11 yr old girls bowling last night- yikes!). This team has soooo much potential...cannot wait to get everyone healthy, eligible, and back on the court. Buckle up!

You guys thinking we get Key back before SEC play. Should have him back before tournament season but he will probably have to shake off some rust. This injury recovery should give him plenty of time to work on free throws.
CAJ keeps talking like he expects to have him back by Christmas. On the tv interview after the game last night he added "or sooner." So, I'd say there is reason to be optimistic.
Speaking of FT's, we shot 28 last night but only 4 players shot them. 15 by Ingram. We did end up shooting 68% but needed Ingram to get on a late streak to get to that mark. Fortunately, Memphis missed 14 of 36. We need to improve over last year's percentage as we left way too many points on the floor and it cost us in a few big games, like Kentucky.
The initial report was Key will be back within 4-8 weeks. He's already riding a bike, so who knows.

I would not be shocked to see him back by the time we play Arizona. Coach said 4 weeks and maybe sooner last night. Arizona would be 4 weeks.
I hope there is a good way to determine when he is ready so that Key doesn't try to play too soon and cause the injury to linger. I'd like for Key to get a little playing time with the team before SEC starts.
Thanks for sharing Sip, I heard some of he game on the radio ... if someone would of said we would have had this type of foul trouble in the first half and still pulled out a win I would have just laughed at them. But like you said their competitiveness is something to be excited about. Looking forward to seeing what this team can accomplish this year! BUCKLE UP
