Seeing Condon go up and under is exciting for a guy deemed to be really raw

Not getting hyped. The team has kicked me in the nuts too many times. I may be stupid, but I eventually figure it out. I’ll wait until the season starts.

And Condon has been a huge surprise.

This is a nice article detailing what went down in the scrimmage against scUM. According to the article, the best player on our side was Tyrese Samuel.

Insider Notes From Florida’s Secret Scrimmage | GatorCountry.com

“Miami was 30-62 from the field (including 12-26 from three) while Florida was 34-71 from the field, and somewhat notably–only 6-24 from three (25%). Walter Clayton, who was known for his shooting at Iona, was particularly cold at 1-6 and Zyon Pullin struggled (1-4) while Riley Kugel (2-5) and Will Richard (2-6) were solid. Three-point shooting is thought to be a strength of this roster but it wasn’t against Miami”

Not again….

I like the fact that we won even though we didn't really play well. Clayton was specifically brought in to be a shooter. I'm interested to see how the big unit does this season. We have serious size.

Just a scrimmage with a few highlights, but here’s hoping we’ll all be able to say, borrowing a phrase from Charlie Murphy (Chappelle’s Show), that “(these) cats could ball!”

we are gonna have a damned good team nxt year. You heard it here first.

For you of all people to say this makes me feel better. Normally you’re one of the main dumpers so this gives me hope!




Lol but seriously I’m feeling good about the team myself!

:pe:The old "wait 'til next year" bit. The often used trope of 0-10-1ers everywhere....
