What are you talking about? He's always been in our starting five.Pack …. He took being pushed out of a starting guard spot personally. He must be feeling some kinda way right now. Congrats to him and the squad.
And my apologies for quoting a Talladega grad.
Pack and Joseph can both run the point and Joseph now shoots well enough that he can play off balL. I was concerned about yhe lack of size in the back court doing into the season, but so far Pack and Joseph are complimenting each other very well.What are you talking about?

Post I was replying to TheU1984 who said Pack was "pushed out of his starting Guard" job?? That was news to me.Pack and Joseph can both run the point and Joseph now shoots well enough that he can play off balL.

I think he’s talking about when Pack played at K StatePost I was replying to TheU1984 who said Pack was "pushed out of his starting Guard" job?? That was news to me.
I don't think he lost his job there either. Wasn't he First Team All-Big XII @ K State? Players of that caliber don't lose their jobs.I think he’s talking about when Pack played at K State
We also did a good job of contesting their 3 point shots whereas we took a lot of open 3 pointers, not the least because Coach L gives our guys a lot of freedom to short very long 3’s which are rarely contested because our guys will go right around the defender and score at the basket.K State shot just 4 of 28 on their 3's. We scored 36 points on threes, they scored 4. Good thing they were all bricklayers from beyond the arc.
As for our bench, Kyshawn George had a productive box score line. Pretty much nothing from anyone else.
Bensley thinking like a PG. He passed up 3-4 open shots for assists to better shooters. Very unselfish and smart.
Pack's range is virtually unlimited. What a first half shooting exhibition. Bet K State fans were not happy while they thought of what might have been.

Got it. But, the days of playing two Guards, two Forwards and a Center are gone. Many teams, like us, play basically "4 out" (on the perimeter) with one "big." I don't think Pack was ever in danger of having to sit at K State. I don't think playing time was the issue.Pack was All Big 12, yes. And was the number two rated guy in the transfer portal. However, Weber left, Tang came in, and Markquis Nowell was the guy. In fact, he was just two or three guys that stuck around.
Maybe a stretch for me to say Pack lost his job, but point still stands, Nowell was 1.
Ended up being a good move for both.
I get it but ... when a bench guy is in the game, it's nice to think they could score here or there.Re: the bench, L wants tenacious defense and offensive efficiency from them more than anything else. They’re generally not going to put up big numbers because their job is to play defense, rebound, pass, and take the open shot or drive when it’s there.
