Re: GDT: Jackrabbits(5-2) vs Bison(4-1) @ Frost Arena
It seems odd that we are at 8 conference games when the rest of the teams are at 5 or 6. I'm trying to decide if it is an advantage because it will give the freshman a chance to get their legs back under them or if we need the court time so we don't lose chemistry and confidence.

I dont want to overlook this year bit at halfway point in conference we are at worst tied for first place with probably the youngest or second youngest team in the conference.

Game last night was as fun as I've seen in Frost for a while. Both teams throwing haymakers at each other and both responding. Thankfully we came out on top and weathered NDSU's many runs.
If this team can figure out things on D and be more consistent, look out!!!!!!!
Congrats to Hendo and staff for getting this team to where they are at already!
Consistent Defense and how to run the offense with out Wilson and or Dent out there. going to ORU and NDSU I worry about and maybe at UND but the only home game I worry about is Omaha.

Originally posted by bigticket1 View PostIt gets even more exciting when you look at the NDSU, USD, ORU and Omaha rosters and realize how many good seniors that those teams will lose next year. The Jacks are set up to have a good run for a few years. If they can add another really good player or two with the scholarships they have available, things could really get interesting.

It is crazy to think that this team is playing this well with such a young lineup. We start two juniors, a sophomore, and two freshmen. There were several times when we had Arians (junior) and four freshmen on the floor last night.
Maybe a thank you to UNLV is in order as well.
The future of SDSU MBB is really bright.

Ariens is a sophomore SB...you are right, however, the future is bright! We have two juniors in Wilson and Buchanan. Was great to have Doug back last night...his presence is huge!

I'll echo the crowd, Great Win... Great atmosphere.
The Crazy thing is... they played 8 guys last night. 4 of them were freshmen. (2 RS and 2 True)
And Dillon played about 4 minutes... so they Mostly played 7 guys... NO Seniors, and 4 Freshmen. And they beat a veteran squad that is really good.
Not saying the Jackrabbits will win the conference, or have any clue how the conference tournament will go, but this team has been a joy to watch.

I also want to join the chorus praising Arians. He's about as low-key of a player as you'll find but it's becoming clearer all the time that he's the guy holding things together. Among plenty of other things, the zero turnovers in 39 minutes stat really sticks out from last night. Again, we played without a single minute from a senior last night, but he played like one. Like most of this team, Arians and Dentlinger are just beginning to figure out how good they can be.

The player development throughout this year has been incredible IMO. The confidence, skill set, intelligence, and understanding of roles/strengths has improved significantly for nearly everyone the roster. You hope for that with a young team but development is FAR from a given. Credit to the coaching staff.

the crowd and atmosphere was electric i thought, it has to give the guys such a big boost when we pack the seats and are loud. Mims has been a great surprise as others have mentioned, really looking forward to watching him continue to progress and get big minutes
