Rick Ray will join us for tomorrow's This Is Our Show...
- Thread starter dawgstudent
- Start date
Will we do different things in games this year with more bodies available, like more pressure defense, trying to push offensive tempo a bit more, etc?
What did he do to piss off the Injuns? That guy has to be the most unlucky man on the face of the Earth...
I have a few:
What is his recruiting strategy? (In/out of state, what are MSU's selling points to recruits)
What are this year's goals, how do they compare to last year's, and next year's?
What differences has he seen in SEC basketball compared to what he saw in the ACC and Big10?
How does he motivate players to improve on the court, but also not be **** heads off the court? (two huge past MSU basketball problems)
Also, please thank him for beating ole miss, that impressed me, and made a rebuilding season tolerable.

Here are a few..
Will he give Devonta Pollard a look if he is cleared of his pending legal issues.
How is the recuiting of Malik Newman going?
Why can't he get a true center on campus?

A few come to mind:
1) What's the single biggest thing he learned from Year 1 as a head coach that he'll change about himself going forward?
2) How big a concern does he have about the fact that we are paper thin in the post. One injury and we're playing phoenix suns small-ball
3) This may only be curious to me but I'd like to know if he agrees that southeastern kids as a whole are fundamentally behind midwestern kids in basic basketball skills and thus need a lot more coaching up once they get to college.
4) I'd like to hear the role he envisions for some of the guys we haven't seen. Davis, Applewhite, Ready as well as ndoye's future.

Good questions Fishwater. I'm sure Coach Ray is anxious to comment on the ongoing recruitment of a player.
I have a hard time keeping up with which players are actually on campus. I really try to keep up, but the turnover has been crazy.
What kind of senior leadership does he expect from Baxter Price? Can Victoria Vivians play for him too?**

Well I guess he could answer 1 of these...or answer all 3 and get in loads of trouble.
I can answer the 1 he can answer- there is very few true centers that are worth a ****(meaning not projects). We are MSU- Our centers are either been projects or just a big body that can be interchanged between the 4 and 5 but not be asked to draw the defense out.
Robert Jackson? forward
Austin? forward
Lincon Smith? uh...
Morgan? project
Campbell? ill be nice and just say nothing.
Roberts? forward
Jarvis? forward
Riek? project
So did you ask if he thinks he can keep his players from boozing the night before winnable games this year? At least make them go home before midnight. That's reasonable.
Asking for a friend.

Ray mentioned strength and conditioning and who has improved the most there. we also asked what's the biggest part of the game should we expect improvement out of Sword, Thomas, and Ware respectively?
