For those at the scrimmage (and in the hopes of wrangling this topic back into where it needs to be):

1. How much was Stevie in the "pg" role? How did he look there?
2. Do you think Royce can hold his own at about 5mpg?
3. Caedin-- did he look the part? Frosh mistakes or looked in control?
4. Is Jop looking a bit quicker this year?
5. Was Kam primary ballhandler? How did he look in that role if so?
6. How big is the hype train for Clark now?
Assume what I say should be in teal if it doesn't pass the smell test for you.

1) Handled the ball some, went right at Kam a few times and had some tough finishes in traffic. Probably the third (fourth if Sean comes back) option behind Kam and Tre.
2) He showed flashes, I think the game moves a bit too fast for him defensively still. Polished offensive game though. He may play some, but I'd be surprised if he's in the rotation against the better NC/BE teams.
3) Looked tentative at times still. Certainly their most physical presence, showed nice touch out to the three in warmups, but twice got tossed a shot clock grenade and wouldn't take the jumper.
4) Maybe? Jop was Jop. Got hot from deep, drove to the lane and got stuck a bunch. He needs to level up.
5) Kam's handle isn't as tight as I would have liked to see, but his creation for other guys was really good. He'll be fine. My worry with him being the primary ballhandler is how much it will reduce the catch and shoot looks for him. The offense needs those shots.
6) CHOO CHOOOOO. He still has a lot to work on, but like I said earlier he plays with natural basketball instincts, and he's starting from a more advanced place than I thought. A redshirt year will do him good physically and he can work more on ball skills. But the way he moves is next level, on both ends. 2 years from now he could be an absolute monster.

For what it's worth, judging parenting is poor form.

I own that. My apologies. Sincerely and without sarcasm.

It was a silly statement primarily designed to criticize the premises of the whining post, which honestly I find just as silly and frankly whiny. It was poor design on my part. Again, my apologies.

And for the one who asked, yes, I would have made that kid walk home 2 miles in the snow barefoot.... (That is said in jest).

Were there tickets for the scrimmage?  Could you have grabbed some food on campus and returned?  While I've never witnessed it, I'm fairly certain Real Chili has hot dogs.

A couple weeks ago my wife told my four year old daughter she needed to show some effort.  Her response was "you want me to say the F-word?"

We had hot dogs last night for dinner.

I'll call them Chicago style.  Had the traditional toppings, minus tomatoes.  Even got a jar of Vienna sport peppers.  Used Neuske's applewood smoked skin on wieners.  Pretty darned good.

Chicago style hot dogs without a little tomato??? What are you, some kind of communist???

But +1 on the Nueskes. Very good.

I had a hot dog at Real Chili a couple of weeks. I can confirm they indeed do serve hot dogs.

I've never branched out from a bowl of chili. 

How are the hot dogs there?

Pretty generic. I was running late to a meeting and did not have time for chili and grabbed hot dog to go.

They're good. Reminds me of what they used to serve at the McGuire Center.

The prices for entrance into the scrimmage were inexcusable! And shame on Sean for not giving the ol' knee a go for all those that made the trip to the Al!

My wife is making the Real Chili recipe tonight at my son's request.  I'll need to slap some on one of those Neuske's dogs and report back to Scoop tomorrow morning.

Clearly, we raised our kid right if he is asking for Real Chili.

I noticed that some time ago. My guess is that Rocky sent it on a long vacation.

We know what goes on at The Al, though!
