Pac-12 Network Highlights:

Fun watch and a good team win. Flynn was really good again down the stretch. Franks had a good game off the bench. Hawkinson/Clifford had their typical game.

Really good game from Ike. I've been critical but he was good. Only 2 turnovers for the game and efficient.

Flynn and Franks are a nice cornerstone for the future. Maybe EK does know how to recruit ~~(fingers crossed).

Franks did a lot of nice things and shows he's capable of becoming a good scorer. It will be interesting to see how he does against better teams. While 2-0 is a great start it came against 2 of the worst teams in the conference at the moment. OSU was playing without a lot of production.

 

[ElComanche]

Give credit where credit is due. The cougs played well and Ike did not make any bonehead plays. Ike played well and the cougs are 2-0 in conference play.It seems like the team is playing well together and the malcontents have left the barn.Oregon is coming in and they appear to have too much firepower for the cougs. They blew the doors off of udub and Romar may be gone. It will be an interesting game and one hopes the cougs make it a competitive game. Kent is doing a good job of coaching this year and fans should support him vs powerhouse Oregon.

Romar going no where with one of the country's top recruitng classes for 2017. Nice Win by the Cougars with five in double figures. Sure wish we had a 3-point shooter other than Flynn.

It makes things that much tougher. Hawkinson dropping a couple early was a nice sign.

Actually that's a fact I was talking about guards. That is our weakness.

Waiting on Acquaah to join the mix next year but definitely a weakness.

 

[ElComanche]

Vionte Daniels has a sweet stroke, he needs to find his confidence. Franks was knoan for his ability to hit his outside shots in high school. The trio of Flynn,Callison,and Ike has been a strength of the team over the last few games . Has anyone bothered to check their shooting percentages lately?

 

[7ICoug]

Good point on Acquaah that injury was a blow.
