This fellow Austin Reaves is going to be in that boat. The guy can read the floor.

I thought Long Beach was fast and athletic...the Shockers beat them in every part of the game.


I'm a HUGE fan of Austin. The kid's BBIQ is through the roof and he's fearless. Let's get some weight on the kid and he'll only get better. Having him and Shamet in the same back court together for four years makes me smile.

Here's my take on the Shox 2 games in: yes we lost 2 major stars. Those guys were really good. On the flip side, we had a lot of young guys last year that would defer to Ron and Fred, sometimes just watching them and waiting for them to make a play. This year, we have no "stars". We have many really good players, but there isn't any deferring going on. We have experience, youth, skill, height, athletism, intensity and teamwork. It's gonna be an exciting and interesting season.

As for Austin Reaves, I'll throw out a name that he reminds me of: Ben Jacobsen of UNI. Probably a better athlete, but that kid had unique grit and leadership, loved watching him play. Reaves will be very good.

Tonight on the radio show Coach Marshall reminded everyone not to expect this type of victory every night and that with a young team the highs are very high and the lows are very low. This team needs to win on the road before the hype is real. An athletic but down Tulsa team is up next followed by Maryland Eastern Shore.

The Austin Reaves Fan Club is already bursting at the seams. He gets the most cheers when entering or leaving the game.

As the season progresses, I suspect you will move from being annoying to a complete @ssshole.
