Beyond the Box Score: Split in Mobile



Not the best place to spend Turkey Day

We beat Utay Valley State and lost to host South Alabama.  Overall, pretty much what I expected.  Xavier Hansbro played big against Utah Valley and was a non-factor vs. a shorter South Alabama team.  Consistently inconsistent.  Play this way and we'll finish exactly as I thought.  .500 overall.

Good:
-We improve our shooting as we crack the 40% for the season.
-Scoring more than 60 points vs. a Division 1 opponent.  Another improvement.
-Joe Dukes finally woke up and played well. 
-Trae Goldston finally gave us a scoring punch.

Bad:
-Dante Curry played well on Wednesday night with 10 points of the bench and only plays 7 minutes yesterday scoring 3 points.  Not sure what to think of him.  I'm afraid he'll never develop into an impact player.
-James Vincent played 1 minute and got 2 fouls.  Wow.  That's impressive.
-Speaking of fouls.  Georgia State - 24.  South Alabama - 11.  Something stinks.

We now sit at 3-4 (2-4 against Division 1 opponents).  Next up Jacksonville at home on Monday.  We seem to be Team Schizophrenic and I hope we can draw decently when there are no students on campus.
