This is going to be an interesting lineup. Thankfully Jackson State is a patsy.

So what was the starting lineup?

I heard Underwood beat him up because he’s Puerto Rican. At least that’s what Bernstein said. You didn’t hear about that?!

I like I like Hawkins playing the point.

Those 25 pounds he put on may have slowed him a half step tho.

Ball handling has been shaky.

Why was Hummel doing the Illini game and Trent Meachum is doing the Iowa game?

Did not cover the 25.5 point spread. Freakin' Underachiever. Already disappointing us.

Who cares? Opponents are Jackson State and Longwood. No one is watching these games other than parents and diehards.

Jobu Payne looks pretty athletic. Should help out on D.

He’s really the kind of athlete we needed to shore up Kofi and Giorgi’s PnR defense issues. Extremely limited offensively as we already knew. That lob that he threw down looked impossible…until it easily went in.

This. He looks lost out there 90% of the time. He’s just missing something.

That second half was hard on the eyeballs.

Was like watching all those John Groce teams that also didn’t have a point guard. I guess it’s good we already know that 6’ 10” sophomore Coleman Hawkins is better at the point than Plummer or DMW. For those unfortunate times when our three primary ball handlers are out.

I absolutely concur...for as athletic as he seems to be, he also seems to not be able to play within the flow of an offense. He seems almost disinterested or as you say lost out there...

Was expecting this freak of an athlete honestly up and down at the rim all the time, doesn't seem that is what we will get....by next year I hope that changes.

Not sure why anyone would've expected that.  He played sparingly for a worse team than ours last year.

The same reason has to why NBA drafts people and the NCAA recruits people....potential. This kid was ranked a spot ahead of Kofi in HS, and shows flashes...just not a player that panned out like his potential suggested that he would coming from HS. Kofi has gotten ALOT better and Payne played sparingly for a team that is now in Top 25 and transferred to us.

Either way I am glad Kofi is back, but I am not sure in light of recent games if we couldn't have went without Kofi (if he hadn't returned) and played this year with a stretch 5 in Hawkins. Coleman is blowing up for us...
Title: Re: Jackson State
Post by: ridingthegrange on November 15, 2021, 03:24:30 PM
Coleman took a step up from last year and that's very encouraging.  The kid seems to have good court awareness and multiple tools.  Can't remember us having a big like this before and don't give me Georgi.

Only former player comp I have is Brian Cook. Coleman is more athletic but not as skilled at this stage. 6’11” dudes that can hit threes can play a long time in the league.
