Post your thoughts!
Here's mine:
Lynch has some size and good foot work. I think he'll be good once he gets some seasoning.
Lots of new faces in Normal, but ISU red still has the smallest, skinniest guards in the conference. They were quick and athletic, but I didn't see much else. I'm guessing the defense had something to do with that.
Not a Lofton fan. He took out of rhythm shots and constantly forced the issue.
From about the 10 minute mark in the first half on, the zone was totally ineffective. At about the same time, the Redbirds offense quit moving the ball and everyone started playing one-on-one.
The Shockers were bigger, stronger and executed better than ISU, but the birds do show some promise.
Good luck the rest of the way!
