Re: 1/9 | Davidson | 7:00PM (ESPN+)
I don’t think Davidson is good but that’s still a real good road dub Last years team loses that game by double digits Depth on display tonight with Green mostly a non factor. Huge minutes from Brown. Play of the game might have been when he snatched that 50/50 ball and fed House for the dunk. That’s...

They’re skinny, but lanky and can shoot, feel like they always get offensive rebounds and kick it out for a three.

Like when we lost EC it’s going to force some of their young guys to step up and develop faster… long term that’s prob good for them.
But also like when we lost EC I think they will struggle mightily on offensive end. I don’t see them being an ncaa team without Hopkins.

I think that’s the best comp yet. A lefty version.
Mike was tough, versatile, and could score inside and out. Prob less of a back to the basket threat than Green but more similar IMO than others thrown out.
