Gardner should be POTG

[tower912]

He and Chris don't have to win every game.  They aren't there yet.   They just have to keep us from getting gashed inside every game.    So far, so good.   Just get 1% better every day, boys.

DG's stat line. 11 points and 7 rebounds in 12 minutes.  Efficient.

The Ox got a standing O when he was taken out....and then Buzz put him back in 30 seconds later

[madtownwarrior]

guess he is not the "the project" so many of you declared him to be...

Buzz will continue to rotate lineups and DG will get 15-20 a game tops.   Conditioning won't allow more until next year.    Enough of an inside presence, Willie?

I'll take 20 minutes minimum. Let him develop. I only see upside--or is it backside?

I would not have predicted that the Ox would show up on the SoG board this year.

I would not have predicted that the Ox would show up on the SoG board this year.

He should have been SoG on Friday, as well !!!!   
My Season SoG Tally is:
OX - 2
Everyone else - 0   

This game is going to pay dividends at some point this season, showing these guys they can still win when from all appearances 'it's just not their day'.

Having ox as sotg has to help recruiting.

I would not have predicted that the Ox would show up on the SoG board this year.

Going by mere recruiting rankings and the Pro Am, I'm pretty sure none of us thought he could do anything close to this for at least a couple years.  He's got 28 points though 2 games...I'd bet most of us thought he wouldn't put up that many all year.  What a great surprise.

Not surprisingly (well it's surprising Gardner did it but not surprising no one has done it in awhile since our big guys have been pretty horrid), Ox is the first big man to put up at least 10 points in each of his first 2 games of the season since RJAX put up 15 against Nova and 13 against Coppin State to start the 02-03 season.
