  1. Year 2 Comparison: Lamont vs. Frank

    @Blitzkrieg you're not wrong. I was (and still am) a Frank guy too. But his demeanor was one where you had to WANT to play for him, knowing you’d get abused verbally. Most guys don’t want that these days, and that showed in his inability to recruit in the two years following the NCAA success...
  2. *** USC MBB (7-1) @ ECU (6-3) Game Thread ***

    Some good insights on our strengths and what we’ll see from future opposing coaches/teams. Gotta agree that we need MUCH more production on the offensive/defensive boards from guys like Josh Grey and BBV. Could have cost us the game, but the good guys fought and got shots to fall when it...
  3. 2023 MBB vs. Clemson Game Predictions

    Gamecocks win 83-75. Defensive pressure causes too many turnovers for the Tiggers and points off turnover margin makes the difference. Look for much more inside shooting and lots of fouls/FTs on both sides of the ball.
  4. *** USC MBB (6-0) vs. George Washington (6-1) Game Thread ***

    51.4% tonight from behind the arc, with 28 made 3 pointers. New Gamecock team high for a single game. 5-7 FTs. 50% FG percentage. 4 starters with 10+ points, and bench contributions from all but Gray and Sparkman. REALLY good night, and against a VERY good GW team. Coach Paris may have...
  5. *** USC MBB (5-0) vs. Notre Dame (3-2) Game Thread ***

    Good win, but a strange one. ND “out-statted” us in some pretty important ways. Gotta get better at sharing the ball and getting more scorers involved. Winning the game with 3 guys is great, but I’d love to have others getting more time on the floor right now, and getting the workload shared...
  6. Trent Noah is set to make his commitment announcement on Sunday

    He’s a Gamecock! This is a NICE get for Coach Paris, and one that is a real, true fit in Coach Paris system of play. I like it a lot! Excited to see him play… he’s a smart, articulate kid, with a great BB IQ. Gonna do very well for the ‘Cocks!
  7. Cam Scott it's almost decision time

    I don’t think this was a case of Columbia influencers. After all, it was reported by both sides that GG and Cam talked about Cam’s visibility and potential in Columbia. Kid just wanted to get away, and TX NIL looks better than SC NIL, unless you’re a GG Jackson or Nick Harbour. But yes, brutal...
  8. Gamecocks basketball pick up big-guard commitment for 2024 class

    Piper has some highlight reels out there, but they’re hard to locate. He’s definitely got some skills, and as he gets coached up should be a quality grab...

  10. Morris Ugusuk and Okku Federiko commit to the Gamecocks

    Redshirt commitment is an interesting use of scholarship. I’m really curious how Coach Paris sees Ugusuk developing and how he will utilize him at USC. It’s an intriguing get, and one which I’ll be watching closely.
  11. Gamecocks lose starting guard, local player to transfer portal

    Honestly, Chico was the main beneficiary of a reduced and hampered squad this season. I truly believe that if Ebrima Dibba had remained healthy, and given the minutes Chico got under Frank Martin, that Chico Carter would have been mostly a non-factor for the team and would have transferred...
  12. *** USC MBB (3-13/10-19) @ MSST (7-9/19-10) Game Thread ***

    He’s got a very nice outside shot, and reads the floor well for passing. A few inches too short to be a great guard for us, but good tenacious defense and GREAT (as you said) outside stroke. Ford Cooper ain’t bad either, and plays “D” like He wants your lunch money. The walk on’s have played...
  13. Gamecocks Welcome No. 2/2 Alabama Wednesday Night

    Same kind of garbage went down with Baylor men’s basketball back in 2003. This is an NCAA rinse, wash, repeat situation. Bama will play on and then eventually have their record blemished after the fact. Think Lance Armstrong in cycling or what will likely happen to LSU basketball from years...
  14. *** USC MBB (8-16/1-10) @ Ole Miss (10-14/2-9) Game Thread ***

    Made me smile the 2nd time I watched the game too! 😁. Good win for the good guys!
  15. *** USC MBB (8-15/1-9) @ Mizzou (17-6/5-5) Game Thread ***

    The Mizzou team would be hard to defend from 3 point land, regardless. They are one of the hottest shooting teams in our league right now, and we played them REALLY well overall. Nothing for the guys to hang their heads over.
  16. *** USC MBB (8-15/1-9) @ Mizzou (17-6/5-5) Game Thread ***

    This one stings for me. We played that one like it was drawn up (in my mind). Was within grasp for us. Hate it for the ‘Cocks.
  17. *** USC MBB (8-12/1-6) @ UGA (13-7/3-4) Game Thread ***

    Actually playing strong defense without fouling so far in the early 1st half. Keep that up, we get some good points off pushing the ball post-defensive rebound.
