I was surprised

I was surprised 

His next 3 pt attempt got backboard and no rim.

Glad to have bpth Cummingham and Bishop back. Hopefully,  Cummingham is put at the 3 not the 4 or 5 positions like this past year. Cummingham was almost 50% from the 3s BTW.  I'll take his hustle and close to 50% 3s from the 3(small forward) position over what we saw this year.   (Check Febres numbers).

If Beard it really trying to get us to where we want to go, then get  bigs at the center and pf positions. Disu is a solid PF. Bishop is a solid back-up PF. Need to get 2 Centers that are like Sims or better. That with most everyone else except for Ramey. I don't  mind AJ with Morris and D. Mitchell and the other new guard with most of the holdovers and finding 1-2 bigs at the center position.

Get T.J. or Coleman to work with Askew should help Askew better.

Then they need to decide the offense they want to run to help Askew and Morris run.

We are rid of Ramey, Febres, and Licon. Are we better across the board. 

Image 2 deep across the board if eveyone comes back except Ramey. Plus we add ar least 2 legit bigs and 1 legit PG with everyone.

When I went to the Tennessee game, he hit 8 straight 3's (nothing but net) during warmups. He's a better shooter than we give him credit for.

He was 11/23 on the year, just not a major part of our gameplan. Maybe this upcoming season will see him open it up a bit more on offense.

He can shoot, however I believe he has a confidence issue. Example, in one game I saw where he passed a wide open 10 foot baseline shot. Instead he dribbled into coverage and turned the ball over. A shooter would have shot that ball. There have been other examples of this.

And yes, I knew he had a good 3pt percentage.

Hats off to St. Pete! Would not let the reffs. beat them likethe horns did.

LOL, when I saw him doing that during warmups, I kept looking to make sure it was him.

As you can see, help is on the way.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Word is, we're talking to this guy (portal). 6'11 who can shoot the three.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Him and Morris should help the offense in a lot of ways.

Arkansas is getting some good players.  Musselman is a good coach.  Beard’s recruits look good.  He’s going to have to fill in with the portal.  Beard is really good at shaping his roster into guys that are going to play like he wants. We may still have another guy or two return for another year.  It’s going to be interesting watching this play out.

Man, I can see him wanting to check out the pros but the portal? Dude was getting plenty of playing time under Beard, 2nd most mins behind Carr (30.8 to 30.1). This one is strange to me.

Ramey is a strange one. He's the one who has, on occasion, shown anger towards other players when he didn't think they were doing enough. Great player but a bit of a head case. I wish him the best, he played hard for us.
