Holman is being productive today on the boards & scoring, hell is even playing D. Glad he decided to join us for the SEC season

At the end of the day, the dude was a bulldog, and not one called Big Feces. We'll judge you by what you do in March big man. Take us on a run and you can still go out a legend.

Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.....

Holman (and Peters somewhat) seem to show up big against weaker competition, but fade against equal or better talent.

If the opponent is more talented, then yeah, they won't loom as good.
Pretty much the story of my athletic life right there. Me and most everyone, actually.


In related news to your observation, the team that scores the most points wins.

Yeah, that was a little simplistic on my part.

My point was more that there are certain players who really step up their games against better competition or more talented opponents, and there are those who fade against players who are as good or better than they are.

Still simplistic I know, but I seem to sense a little “give up” in Peters and Holman at times when it’s clear they are evenly matched or outmatched.

We’ve had players in the past who would dig down and play harder as the challenge got bigger and bigger.

I think you see this is all walks of life...business, sports, even relationships. Some folks grind harder when it’s tough, and some folks go into a shell and wait for it to be over.

Arid ya splayed pretty bad for the SEC season but he in my opinion has been one of the kore likable players we have had the last several years. Not a whole lot of BS or head case stuff out of him. Glad he played well on senior night
