but you can at least find the rosters and schedules here:  http://www.hoopfigures.com/0045

I appreciate the work you have to be putting in to do this but to say that site is difficult to read would be an understatement.

If all of those guys play AthletiCo has to be the favorite.

Match up alert
Saturday at 1
Dawson vs Duane Wilson. Will the mystery man outplay the highly anticipated Wilson.
Anderson vs J. Wilson. Will Jamil take the first step in winning the starting job from Juan.
McKay vs Gardner. Will Gardner physically demolish McKay or will McKay run Gardner into the ground.

[GGGG]

Anderson vs J. Wilson. Will Jamil take the first step in winning the starting job from Juan.

Again, IMO they both start.

[We R Final Four]

Regardless of how JWill plays, JA will start.

I do like the matchups though.

Any feedback would be appreciated on how the guys in our new class are doing.  Any first impressions. Thanks, I,m in Jersey.

I haven't seen this posted on the forums yet. Twitter has been a better place to get Pro-Am news so far.

Um...after seeing that Davonte clip...if we get any guard play, we are going to be scary good.  Like Utah after KVH left good.  #VanderEwingTheory

Who's that skinny guy?!?!

Gardner's definitely been putting in work.

I went today. Unfortunately Otule and JJJ did not show up. I watched the first half of that game. Derrick W. and Thomas were on the other team. The pro am is a different animal as the players can play however they want, which pretty much means they can shoot whenever they want. Thomas was much more impressive than Wilson in this setting. Wilson did however show some ability to drive to the basket and actually make it. The second game I got to watch Deonte Burton and Mayo. Mayo was okay and had 24 points as his team was blown out. Jerry Smith was the second leading scorer on the other team with 50 points as McKay scored 51. Burton had 36 points and at least 5 dunks. I had pretty much decided he was not much of an outside shooter and then he buried three straight threes. Overall he was the second most impressive MU player of the day. The highlight game was Gardner, Anderson and Dawson surviving against McKay, J. Wilson and Duane Wilson. Gardner was somewhat disappointing as he repeatedly in the first half missed shot after shot from the outside. Anderson was very good playing the two guard. Dawson scored the first basket of the game and probably finished with 6 points. Nice player, but most of the time you did not notice him on the court. Jamil Wilson played the first half like he often does, which means he just does not seem to care. In the fourth quarter he was dominate and very impressive. Better than Juan when he wants to be, but Juan played hard the whole game. Duane Wilson is extremely quick and is most likely our starting point guard, but based on what I saw today we do not have a point that can make the other players better. Jamal McKay was allowed 6 fouls before he fouled out, but when he was in he was unbelievable. I think he had 40 points. He is very thin, but so fast that he is impossible to guard. Scored at the basket several times and scored from the outside. He handles the ball very well and to me was the most impressive MU player of the day. Based on what I saw today I would start Juan at the 2 over Mayo. Bigger player, better passer and defender.

Thanks much for the report.  Really appreciate it.

Was at the ProAm today also. Deonte Burton is a highlight reel, he was incredible with his dunks, and driving with the ball. He is so much bigger than I imagined, and by that I mean just solid. Defense everywhere was pretty lacking. I thought Mayo looked very smooth. Davante looks to have lost maybe 15# or put it in different spots, as he looked fairly trim and did explode to the baskets on some drives, but didn't finish all that well, and took too many outside shots. Juan was Juan doing everything well, and hustling. His outside shot looked good. Jameel & Jamil were an incredible twosome to deal with and always looking for each other. When Jamil wants, he can control the game. Jameel (with literally toothpick legs) is an incredible finisher, however outside of 8 feet, he was very inconsistent with his shot. Dawson kind of disappeared on Sat, but in talking with another guy, he really stood out Friday nite, maybe just a bad day for him, but in pregame, he was hitting every shot from outside. The Mckay that scored 51 was Miles Mckay from UW-Whitewater, why he is there I don't know, but probably the best all-around scorer and pure shooter I saw. Duane Wilson was forcing too much and not letting the game come to him. His quickness is really evident and could take the ball to the hole whenever he wanted, but finishing was a problem on this day.

A pro am that starts this Friday and still has an "updated webpage coming soon" is pretty pathetic?

Can't wait to see your Pro-Am next year. Idiot.

Otule is out this weekend with an ankle injury.

Mckay is long gone from Whitewater...he is a pro in Europe now....

I was terrified that Davante was going to break his hand when he punched the wall.

Anybody who complains about a pro am featuring Marquette players (present and past) that is free  to attend is pretty pathetic.....

Remember that defense is optional in these things. Someone will step in front of Ox to draw a charge if he tries that when there's snow on the ground.

Thank you for the updates. We who are geographically challenged appreciate it.

And thank you IWB for putting all of this together. I went to every pro am I could when I was still living in Milwaukee
