#1 for us sucks

holcombe? he seems pretty servicable to me. not standout by any means, but he also isnt Turner.
he actually has some size and is able to play the 3...something we havent had in a good 4 seasons now.

 

[MissStFan87]

He's not a scorer, unless it's an offensive rebound or fastbreak layup. But he's going to be a good glue man. He's strong, plays pretty good defense, and can help handle the ball. His frame kind of reminds me of Michael Gholar.

 

[Croomp]

He has a lot of learning to do. He looks more nervous than anything out there but he will put in some good minutes. There is too many times when his play is sloppy but its still real early and they aren't getting any rest in between these games.

where every freaking player has to meet the standards of some of you on this message board! This is getting old where a player or coach gets bashed by someone every day on the message boards. Some of you could not even be the water boy on a college team but want to complain about something.

Please make up your mind if you are going to cheer for MSU or find the #1 team in ANY sport and cheer for them so that you can be happy.

Some players are green.... some players will be starters and contributors..... and some will be backups..... everyone on the team has a role

BUT..... to start complaining at the beginning of the season is pure sorry on some of your parts. Either be a fan/supporter or go find another team.

It is hard to believe someone complaining about a player after the 2nd game of the season. Good grief!

 

[Xenomorph]

...just curious.

Because if you discount scoring, defense and rebounding... #15 is great.

 

[lawdawg02]

really?

 

[79dawg4life]

yes. It amazes me after reading the negativity when a player gets berated by the great basketball players on this board.

There, I fixed it. Don't let it happen again.

[TheMAROONandWHITE]

on another note. augustus is as good as advertised.

 

[TBonewannabe]

Branden never had great stats but he had great defense and hustled his *** off. I don't know if Holcombe is this type player but I certainly hope so. Very few teams will have more than 3 players scoring in double digits especially if Stans is rotating 10 players. I will be happy if Ravern, Barry, Dee, and maybe Swat are scoring double digits with everyone else balls to the wall when they are in the game.
