At 18-4, 7-2 the Golden Eagles have really set themselves up well for postseason play. 4 more wins should get an NIT birth, but this squad can do much more.

Alvarez is a difference maker at PG. Ladner will have to decide to start him or keep him coming off the bench. His energy is infectious.

Haase was much more assertive. At times he looks as if he wants to be a guard but doesn't realize he is in a big man's body and his skill set down low is difficult to stop.

Pinckney has been the most improved player I have seen this season. He is playing with such confidence and at 6'9 is a difficult ask for SBC teams to defend. Bigger than guards and faster than most forwards but can shoot from the outside is a ticket to get paid professionally.

Harris is just Harris. He scores but everytime he touches the ball a lump goes up in my throat. He is not a good ball handler, but get him in the paint and he will score. He defense is superb and he can defend the paint and perimeter.

With Alvarez back this team has depth. Ivory and Alvarez give teams firs in the press and is fun to watch.

Basketball is actually fun again, and it's about dang time.
