This thread is ONLY optimism and positivity with regard to the 2018/19 basketball season.

Please keep negative posts to literally any other thread on this forum!

Example of an approved post: We just took down a very solid Louisville team and will have Greg Elliott back before we know it!
Example of an unapproved post: Yes we beat louisville, but we should have lost because Wojo can't coach!!!!!

Is it optimistic that another person drove into the Al today?

Defense is clearly better.
Theo is clearly better.
4-2 despite not getting consistent contributions from anybody not named Sam.

4-2 is way better than 3-3.  And, against a difficult schedule, with lots of room for improvement.

Marked defensive improvements give some hope Wojo can teach defense

Liked what I saw from Ed last night. Hopefully that helps turn things around for him and he can be the contributor most expected.

18 points and 9 rebounds from the center position last night.

Theo has drastically improved since last year and last night there were glimpses as to how Ed put up the numbers he did at NE. Looked smooth and very athletic at times.

Joey's steal down 4 with about a minute left was huge. I had forgotten about that because it was overshadowed by his big free throws and tip in late in regulation. Some big rebs too.

I know he hasn't played much but Heldt seems to be moving more like himself. It did seem that foot was bugging him still earlier. I am hoping he still has a role as a solid interior defender; may play a big role in defending Happ v UW.

 To borrow a line from a Movie, it's  should be the season of Hope not Fear.  Hope that these young guys develop and Gel into the team we expected and we enjoy the journey with all its Ups & Downs. Lets not easily accept failure, but lets not Fear it exists.

Absolutely.  It's obvious that it was an overeager ticket buyer.
Have some patience, FFS.

Great idea for a thread. Seen similar ones on other boards.

Lots of great opportunities for wins coming up.

Marquette won and Sam was once again the best player on the team.

Louisville will be better than many think. This win might end up looking better than we think down the road.
If we are all thinking alike, we're not thinking at all. It's OK to disagree. Just don't be disagreeable.

Juan Anderson's Mixtape

Found a way to win despite not playing their best.  Seem to be learning from mistakes.  When some struggling players find their footing, notably Anim and Cain on offense,  the team will receive a boost.

One other thing to keep in mind, Chris Mack knew Marquette very well.  So a new team with a new coach and a new syste,, but the Coach at least knew how to scheme against us.

PistolBrad

Even in games where Joey doesn't shoot a high percentage he manages to stay efficient by getting to the line often.
