WF MBB Game 7: Florida Gators - Wednesday 7:15 ESPNU

[WFU03]

This is the first year ever that I feel like people are overestimating us.

At the Joel early to get ready for tonight's game while also have my ear to the floor on any possible news regarding Efton Reid and other things.

First piece of news, confirmed that Wake will be wearing the gold uniforms tonight. More notes to come from here on my Twitter @essexthayer7

While I still may prefer the deacon head in the center of the shirts, the walking deacon in white looks way better than it did in black. I think I'm on board with that.

This is the first year ever that I feel like people are overestimating us.

I feel the same way— but I think its due to Forbes prior track record as a winning coach, and in bringing in quality portal transfers— he is definitely getting the benefit of the doubt from ACC and national media- most who probably have never seen us play.

Monsanto would be great to have, but we aren't really missing a player of that prototype. It's Efton Reid or bust in my eyes.

 

[rawarr]

I am not confident we will keep it competitive tonight, but a win here would go a long way

 

[WRS]

I’m going to choose to try* and have positive vibes. Low expectations but a win would be a really big momentum boost.

*key word try

My advice, expect us to not even score a basket tonight and then hopefully after very early in the game, all the rest will be gravy!

There's a joke here... somewhere

Wake +4.5

Efton of disappointments for the Deacon faithful recently.

A big win tonight would go a long way.

 

[Demonwolverine]

Tyree is back baby! Let’s go!

 

[EssexThayer]

Brutal move on my part there.

 

[EssexThayer]

There we go. Tyree not making the trip over from France to start in this game.

Also, Keller for Marsh.

If there’s another reason to keep Forbes around for now— they’re really trying with this student section stuff and I don’t think that’d happen without Forbes here.

 

[TownieBrat]

This is baptism by fire! Never has such a new Deac squad been tested so early. We've always had cakewalks in Nov. I love it! We've had tough losses but love the way we're playing.

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Crowd looks weak

 

[PhDeac]

Good start. Defensive rebound, offensive rebound, three-pointer, steal, blocking foul. I'll take it.

The broadcast looks bad though. The Tenn-UNC game looks much better.

 

[AJMorgan]

Great start, loving the energy

Hey @myDeaconmyhand, what kind of pink shoes is FL wearing?
