*** OFFICIAL GAME THREAD *** Florida vs Florida Gulf Coast

[LeeForThree]

Barry picking it up in the last few plays

 

[LeeForThree]

Energy picks up. Completely different team when we can dictate the pace.

 

[LeeForThree]

Really hard to get anyone fired up with 6 weeks of neutral site basketball.

That really does suck. That first home game should be crazy

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

I will say that we continue to be a great transition basketball team. Half court offense is pretty awful for the third straight year, though.

 

[LeeForThree]

8-0 run to take a 3pt lead with 12 min left

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Bonus the rest of the way. We'll see if these guys have truly improved at FT shooting.

 

[LeeForThree]

Hill with a crazy still and dunk!!!

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida up 8 at the under 8 timeout. Hayes going to the line. Fouled on a dunk attempt in transition.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Hayes looking like he practiced his free throw shooting 24/7 in the offseason.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Our guys woke the F up!

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

32-8 run has turned a 50-45 deficit into a 77-58 lead. We've forced a crap ton of turnovers.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is on the run now. Up 77-58 now.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

80-59 final, finished the game on a 35-9 run. Would love to see these guys play with that type of fire and consistency for 40 minutes, but I'll take the W for tonight.

 

[MertzJay26]

Great end to the game. We have some nice pieces and think we can go deep as long as we play with intensity. Great first win

 

[Swamp Queen]

I almost jumped off the ledge, glad I didn't.

 

[MidwestChomp]

Didnt get to watch so thanks for the updates. Holding the to 9 points with 16 to go is impressive. I also like that we did not have a lot of turnovers, but forced a lot. 3 shooting needs to improve, and what's with Barry going 3 for 6 at the line?

 

[2ndAmend]

Good first test/win.

So howd we look? who looked good?

So howd we look? who looked good?

Hill, Hayes, Robinson and Barry all looked good. Overall we played really well when we played with intensity and got up & down the court.

 

[KronoGator]

Nobody really looked good, just wore them down, depth is nice.
