Just a quick blurb from the scrimmage tonight.

Last night's men's scrimmage results were interesting as much for who made contributions as for who apparently didn't. We didn't seem to get much contribution from the post guys. That's a problem, IMHO.

Making a splash of some sort were ...
Baskin 16 Points (No surprise there)
Eaves 16 Points (Huge surprise there. He was silent all last season.)
Clarke Wins slam dunk contest over High School All-American Jake Lawson (Huge surprise there)
Chris Burgess 10 key points, 4 assists
Tab Hamilton 14 points
Mike Neal 13 points, 4 assists
Ty Toney 11 points

Making a splash...not so much
Jay Canty No mention whatsoever
Jake Lawson Lost slam Dunk contest to a 6-3 Guard
Michael Obacha No mention
Mike Kobani No mention
Rantavious Gilbert No mention
Aaron Scott No mention
Tom Spagnolo No mention

Unless we get major swing contributions from Canty and major post contributions from Obacha and Kobani then we're going to have a long, long season. The red wolffies at MooU must be licking their chops to get us to the Capital city.

Well Canty didn't play, so there's a reason he didn't contribute much.

Thanks for that; appstatesports.com didn't post a box score. It was difficult to pull a summary together. Who else didn't play? Do we have serious injuries?

The freshman Aaron Scott didn't play either, both nursing some injuries. However, I don't either of them are too serious and both should be back for the game at Moo U.

Gilbert and Kobani didn't score really, but both showed up on defense blocking a bunch of shots. Also, Neal and Tab both scored 13 and 14 points, but shot horribly from the field. A bit alarming. Eaves was the biggest surprise by far and it's looking like he'll get a lot more run that most expected especially with the depth in the backcourt and on the wings loosely defined outside of Burgess.
