Good job Cats and Randy. Last time we were in Logan we made zero adjustments once the Aggies started rolling and we melted down. I loved the adjustment on Moore. I loved how Harding and Richardson stepped up when Jeremy got into foul trouble. I also thought Hill and Braxton did enough in the paint to give us the W in Logan. What a great team win!
Look out for Harding. He is something special for sure. We lose 3 seniors this next year but watching his development makes me super excited. He commented to Garside that Gittens has been coaching him up and helping him stay positive. Thanks for being a team guy Richaud and helping this team succeed even though you are hurt. Harding was one of the main keys to the win last night.
I just wish that we could find this level of chemistry, leadership and coaching in late November instead of late December. We are a few made free throws and late game meltdown plays from being 8-3. Although the difference between 8-3 and 5-6 does not matter in terms of winning the Big Sky this season, it may have helped us bump up from a 15 or 16 seed to a 14 or even 13. But we need to go out and win this very pathetic league. I am hoping we can dominate most games.
We get the real conference road test right out of the gate. I hope we can keep this momentum going. Although I would love to see a road sweep, I think the realistic Montana swing expectation should always be coming back with a split.
I thought that there was no way in Hell that this team would finish the OOC slate by beating UVU and USU, but I am so glad that I was wrong.
