I agree with most all of the info you posted axcept rebounding.  I think it is extremley hard to find a man in the zone.   This could cause more foul trouble inside, especially if our guards get lazy.

How come Souly isnt getting any "clean up time", I mean we beat purdue by 20.  i know he is a project but Bob cant believe that Bright will be enough to spell the "dynamic dou"  At some point there both going to have 3 fouls in the first half.  I think Dayton will be a good opportity for Souly, (they got a 6'11) but they look weak this year.
