That was a nice diversion

Was really nice to see the new guys start positive. Couldn't ask for a better couple of first baskets than Trey in the lane, Myles for a lob dunk and Cam for a 3. it was exciting to see the lineup we always figured was the most talented on the floor together starting for the first time. Hopefully was the early branding of a new memorable team in in the post-Zach era. Nice win, everyone gets minutes, good stuff. Trey is looking like the guy Matt talked about now. Playing bigger too. I still like he and Furst together. Furst plays good D and has been our best "man" rebounder aside from Trey. Thought Big Red looked pretty good and looked more relaxed. Quicker too, as he will as he gets more real game experience. Hands were pretty quick grabbing that loose ball the one time.

5 guys who can score! tough for teams to defend

Furst can be solid when bigger needed

Cox, Harris, Big Red, and Jacobsen coming along

Like that fun five!

I think that Colvin and Heide’s athleticism is needed to compliment the other three who are collectively much higher in skill than in pure athleticism. The “Big 3” are probably more athletic than they get credit for and are all great basketball players, but throw a player like Berg in the mix and I feel like it is going to be tough for this group to reach it’s potential. I like Furst as the first sub with the three freshmen in the mix.

This is also possibly the best 3 point shooting lineup in the country. Thus far in the first 6 games combined, these 5 starters are combining for 48% from 3. I know that’s not sustainable, but I can see them matching the Dakota/Vince/PJ group to lead the nation in this category.
