Showing Some Swagger

The biggest difference that I saw with the win over ETSU and with the prior exhibition games was the swagger the team showed during the game. All of the swagger was ignited by Terrence Jones. Jones unleashed his offensive arsenal on the Bucs with dunks, floaters, runners, and knocking down the outside shot. It seemed as if the entire team fed off of TJ’s emotion and I got a chance to ask Doron Lamb and Brandon Knight about how much they fed off of Terrence’s go get it mentality.

You have to love Doron’s reaction after I asked him about Terrence’s swagger. This really seems like a tight knit group of freshman, and this is a very positive sign for this team going forward. Brandon spoke of how intense the game is and how you just can’t control your excitement sometimes. Terrence Jones is the catalyst for all of the emotion, and I am beginning to think as Jones goes, this team will go as well.
