Re: 1/10 - MBB at Beach Chickens, 1pm

Would this offer appeal to a recruit or player in the portal that can shoot very well? - “We can’t shoot. We need you in Boone because you can. If you have good shot selection, you could get up 20-25 shots a game and have ample opportunity to show your shooting skills and score for us. Play a little...

Re: 1/8 - MBB at Georgia State - 7pm

Turrible shooting by both teams - enough bricks to build a nice facility. We’ll take the win though it was a comedy of errors. I watched a high school game last night between two ranked teams in the state and it was bad basketball. AAU effect? Trickle down or trickle up?

Re: 1/3 - MBB at Marshall - 4pm

Practice shooting one-handed. Forces you to get your elbow under the ball and follow-through. A lot of bad shots are the fault of the offhand not in the proper place on the ball (too much over the top, too much under though that’s rare or too much force used by that hand in the shot).

Re: 1/8 - MBB at Georgia State - 7pm

IMO: Start early summer, teach good form with a coach watching and correcting as much as possible, 100 a day and chart ‘em all, can’t leave the gym until you make 10 straight, run the Tennessee Thirty drill a lot early in season and tell players you are going to do that and they’ll start shooting ex...

Re: 1/3 - MBB at Marshall - 4pm

Hard thing to fix. It’s a long fix, year round working on form and getting many reps while winded. And hope to get your best shooters to the line. I believe what a team shoots percentage wise in the first ten games is probably what it’s gonna shoot for the rest of the season.

Re: QB out of Upperman

EastTN, what did you think about him? I’ve seen a’plenty of videos, but videos are only highlights, usually.
You know anything about the QB?

Re: 12/31, MBB at Old Dominion - 2pm

Maybe ODU was practicing their “catchup” game for the future. Got to work on something when the game is out of hand.
Attendance was listed as over 4000. That’s pretty good for a Dec. 31 afternoon game, isn’t it?

Got to be ‘committed’ since juniors can’t sign unless they’ve changed the rule. Never know, nowadays.

We can shoot but we can’t make. Need to change “shooting practice” to “making practice.” 😁

QB out of Upperman

Has anybody seen Bronzdon Chaffin play? Listed as a 6’4” 230 lb. QB out of Upperman High School in Baxter TN who has left high school for early enrollment at Appalachian State. That’s a big guy for a QB. He’s a finalist for TN Mr. Football. He has/had a teammate at Upperman, Ty Cobb, who has signed ...

The right DT for GSU lines up offsides every play. Not called a single time.

Re: Merlefest

Used to go to Merlefest all the time. Loved it and still love Blue Grass First Class in Asheville. Sometimes it was hot, hot, hot in Wilkesboro (weather, I’m talking about). That’s a great lineup. May have to go back.

vs Georgia State

Just looking at their scores, they seem to be getting worse. Being at home, we should get this one. Open up 2-0 (both at home, got to win at home) in the conference would be a great start.

Re: Th. 12/18 6:30pm - MBB vs Coastal Carolina

We can shoot. A little bit. Sometimes.
Still, 64% from the line needs to be 8-10% higher. But our shooting was better.
