PrintSome choice reading for all is below. For those looking for more info on the Jay Graham hire, I know I've been slack. I'll have my take on that situation up soon. I promise. But I have to admit, I'm totally enchanted by this basketball team. It's kindof keeping my mind off football, for once. But we will get back to football in not too long, if only briefly to talk about the assitant coaches situation.
My favorite Gators blog, Orange and Blue Hue, on the game last night. These guys are Gators and the world revolves around them, so, you know, don't expect them to give us ANY credit for our victory. Still, Vince, Gatorpilot, and KG always provide good reads, so they're worth checking out.
Expect to see more of Sam Muldrow in the next few games. The injured center hasn't played a big role in his last few games back, but his good game starting against the Gators made a difference. While it will sacrifice speed to a certain degree, we need more heigth against certain opposing lineups, so it's good to see Muldrow getting back to form.
Finally, you know what I like about Eric Norwood? This.

What a guy Norwood is. Loves to be a Gamecock. I like to see that. It'll be your turn in the fall, Eric. Thanks for coming back for one more year.

Yeah...
It’s nice to see a player that actually seems to care about our great University as much as we do. Norwood will go down as one of great all-time Gamecocks. I hope the coaches and the rest of the team get their acts together long enough to send him out on a high note.

Credit due
Well, I think it’s fair to say that when you hold a 7 point lead with less than 2 minutes on the clock, you should expect to win the game. And when you fail to do that, it’s a combination of a) choke job on the part of the team with the lead and b) amazing plays on the part of the desperate, cornered team trying to catch up. I think both are fair descriptions of what happened in the final moments.
So credit where credit is due — that final layup was amazing — but our boys choked that one away.

Just poking fun at you guys...
I’ll concede that you guys probably should have won. You were ahead by seven with less than two minutes left, and the final play could have been easily prevented, or at least you could have forced Fredrick to take a tougher shot, if you had had a better game plan in case Parson’s missed the FT. That said, success often occurs when preparation meets luck, and when we were in position to win the game, we got a little luck.

No question the Gamecocks deserved to win it and were the better team that night. End of story.
