Xavier v. Oakland (Xavier Invitational 2020)

1-3 from the FT line! I'm done...

Just kidding!!!!

Did Casey Jacobson sleep through the first half? It's obvious this team is WAAAAAAAAAY different than last year.

And he said we can ease Dwon in slowly? Dude, he just started in his first collegiate game.

Was that taped before the game even started?

Ah crap Jim - Don't compare us to Futler!

OUCH! I feel for their fans. I know how painful that is!

THIS IS FUN AGAIN!

Scruggs can not disappear like this at any point going forward. He has to consistently play at an All BE level to get where we want to go...regardless of how well the rest of the roster plays.

Bradley has actually been to the NCAA Tournament more recently than Xavier. There is that.

Now back to the ass-kicking in progress.

Griffin looks like he can play.

Now Scruggs is doing his best to impersonate Q....yikes!
:bash:

Much less pressure to be this with a real supporting cast, which is fine.

He can always step up to be the "guy" in important situations. It will actually be a detriment if he tries to do too much.
