Today in the SVP Lounge, CT, Eric and Zack convene following a Terps loss to Minnesota in Tyrelle Pigrome’s first collegiate state. The guys long for Perry Hills and worry Maryland missed an opportunity to inch closer to six wins. Later, they look ahead to Saturday’s blackout against the reeling Michigan State Spartans and talk a little bit of basketball as the season is right around the corner.
(You can discuss this on the BSL Board here.)
Topics discussed include:
- CT hates the new bag policy
- Thoughts on when it came out that Tyrelle Pigrome would be the starter? Eric found out by watching pregame warm-ups
- What does everyone think about Caleb Rowe not getting any run? Clearly the coaching staff is looking toward the future, trying to develop Piggy by playing him for the full game
- The guys can’t believe they’re longing for Perry Hills
- Penalties were a gigantic problem and ruined any momentum they had in the first half
- Overall, while the guys are more concerned about the defense in the long term, they didn’t play that bad against the Gophers
- Perry Hills and Will Likely both questionable for Saturday. Missing either of those guys would be a big blow for Saturday, even against a bad Michigan State team
- Maryland has a huge opportunity to take a step toward six wins, at home, at night, and especially at the most difficult part of the schedule. Eric is convinced the Terps will lose
- CT doles out some reasons for optimism against Michigan State
- Michigan State are losers of four straight and look rull, rull bad
- Black Ops jersey talk. Maryland used the black ops uniforms against Minnesota. Might they unleash new jerseys for the night game?
- Eric and CT hate the wavy flag bit, Zack tells them to kick rocks
- Michigan State at night marks the (kinda) two year anniversary of CT getting jumped in D.C. after the first time they came to town
- Basketball practice is underway and it’s less than a month away until the first game
- Maryland Madness came and went, nobody batted an eye
- Eric advocates for it to be held at midnight, Zack says it has been discussed
- What’s everyone most excited about when they think of basketball season? Eric and Zack immediately think Melo Trimble, CT points to an exciting nonconference schedule
