Nice! Victor Bailey is going to help out this year, it seems.

At this point, it seems it's between him and Keith Smith.

Where is this coming from? Is this basketball related? Cage has a real opportunity this year to play solid minutes and contribute to a top 25 team. I don't get it.

Sounds like with all the injuries he's had, he's lost a passion/motivation for the game.

It would be awesome to keep him, but at the same time a guy who's hurt 90% of the time isn't going to help the team.

Really hope he sticks it out, we need the size.

Also, Bailey is Oregon's fastest player since Aaron Brooks. Sounds like he needs to work on his shot selection, but 6ft 4, with that speed...whew...

Fun game to watch. Our interior D and rebounding is gonna struggle against some of the bigger teams in the Pac, but not much we can do about that, especially now without MJ Cage who is supposedly the best rebounder on the team.

Bailey played well. He has a lot of potential.
Wooten is very athletic, but has terrible hands. He's still way too raw.
Troy Brown will be great.
Pritchard shot well and looked good out there. Need him to have a big year, and I think he's capable.
Elijah Brown will give us another scorer, which is important. He looked good.
Keith Smith. I don't know if he'll ever be a threat offensively, but his D is valuable. Didn't look great.
Paul White. He fouled a lot, but he plays good D and can help on offense too.
McIntosh. Hard to get a read on him still. I feel like he's still finding his spot on the team, but once he gets it figured out I think he'll be an important piece for us.
Kigab. Hustle player. Reminds me a lot of Brooks in that aspect. I like his game.
Sorkin, it's a bummer but neither him nor Smith seemed to improve much based on this weekend's game.


Little improvements

Wooten is already more capable than BIgby Williams based on watching the game against NW Christian.
