Jackson State at Miami Tuesday at 7 on ESPN+

Our players are just better than theirs. I think if Mo Williams can get some better players in there, they could become a good program though. They play hard and aggressively. Just lots of mistakes and poor shooting.

We are being outrebounded 18-9. Really only bad star for us.

12 assists on 16 made field goals. Great ball movement in the 1st half. Jackson St. isn’t very good, but the ball movement is still good to see. Hopefully we can handle their zone better in the 2nd half, I’m guessing we’ll see more of that.

Bellarmine tied with UK at the half.

Miami looks like a team. Light years ahead of where they were 3 weeks ago.

Unrelated to everything else, but it just occurred to me that perhaps Coach Steele can settle once and for all whether Butler played man or zone back in 2003

I think we are going to have to risk playing Anderson with three fouls.

Before the season began, I looked at our OOC schedule, and was hoping for 7-6 going into the MAC. That was without knowing almost anything about all the new guys. I still think it’s a decent possibility.

Safford has a lot of points just off hard cuts. I rarely saw backdoor cuts with the last two coaches…

That’s the best pass I have seen Mabry make all year.

Steele was yelling at them to move. They listened.

Well, we didn’t have Mirambeaux slinging no look passes like Pete Maravich back then.

I can’t say enough about Billy Smith! Just a smart heady player.

Put Anderson and Lairy back in during this timeout

Miami takes a timeout with 7:57 up 74-56

61% from field, 51% from three.

Really good night for us

This guy Steele is going to make us a mid major power. If he can stay a few years, the program will be a desirable thing for many coaches. You can already feel it changing.

This feels like a team we’d struggle against the past few years. Fast, athletic, and they rebound well. Now it’s a team we can get a 20 point lead against.
