We dropped out of the top 25 today, not that that matters much this early in the year.

Team lacks a real iso shooter who can create. Amauri is a garbage time ball handler and Duarte is pretty much "catch and shoot" only. Team really needs Richardson back soon.

Oregon seems to really lack quickness on offense.

Hardy is doing a decent job at finding cutters and big men on his drives.

Great coast-to-coast drive by Terry to close the half.

Love this defense.

We just beat a team by 17 that is supposed to win the Big Sky and lost by three points each to Arizona and Wazzu. Another really nice win.

Team is showing some real growth already. These non-con games this week will be great tune-ups for UW on Saturday.

Loved the way they pulled ahead at the end. Eugene and Erick Williams JR were esp. good. Team worked really hard to close them out and upped the defense in the second half.

Good win.

Have to find a way to get Lawson/Dante a bit tougher around the basket at both ends in the long run. That's still my takeaway in terms of this being a high ceiling team nationally.

Defense should keep improving as they play more together. Lots of guys that play HARD at that end though.

Only early weakness I see with this team outside of soft 5 men is turnover issues. Richardson will help, but other guys have to be careful not to over handle.

Yup solid win. We do allow too many open 3's still.
