2014-15 ARIZONA ST SUN DEVILS SCHEDULE

Fri, Nov 14 vs Chicago St W 86-50 1-0 (0-0)

Mon, Nov 17 vs Bethune-Cookman W 49-39 2-0 (0-0)

Thu, Nov 20 vs Loyola Marymount W 68-44

A 49-39 win over Bethune-Cookman is pretty bizarre.

I hope we play Iowa State in the next round. That would be a nice early opportunity for a quality win.

That's the type of game Maryland would've lost in the past several years. Trimble was huge, love that he made all but one free throw, including two in clutch time. Wells pressed a bit in the first half but did his thing down the stretch. I liked how Layman was assertive. Wiley made a few big shots. Dodd seemed to get stronger, he has great size I'd like to see him get some more touches. First time I've seen Pack he seemed okay, played solid defense and hustled. Good win, never know how that might help come tournament selection time. Arizona State may beat some teams, especially if they shoot threes like that. We could've gotten out on them more.

I'm going to the Wizards game tomorrow, I'll try to catch the game at the arena. Can't remember the last time we won an early season tournament. Would be great.

Nice win for the Terps. Trimble set a single game scoring record for a Terps freshman. He scored 31 points beating out Joe Smiths 29.

Gotta love a point guard who goes 4-6 from three and 13-14 from the line. Would love to see some assists, but take what the D gives I suppose.

11 FG attempts and 31 points - that's tremendous efficiency. Speaking of which, AZ St isn't going to lose many more games making 14 of 27 3's. Trimble's not going to continue shooting like that, but... Pack is going to be a lot better than his 0 for 6. Wells looked in better shape than last season - I thought he was too bulky last season. He's definitely the team leader - that's fine as long as he plays under control. Nice start by Dodd - hopefully he builds on it.

    • A couple of things that I find interesting, Yaqui Rivera - Acquired in the Tanner Scott/Cole Sulser trade with the Marlins. Juan Nunez - Acquired in the Jorge Lopez trade.   Creed Willems - still only 20 and already in A+.  He got off to a big start last year as well and then struggled the rest of the year.  We're a little spoiled with prospect success from the college guys and HS phenoms Mayo, Holliday, and Gunnar.  The HS position players take some time.  
    • Perez threw an inning of rehab last night with Norfolk.  His velocity was down about 1.5 MPH on his sinker, and everything was down a tick, but he was getting some work in and doesn't look too far away from being ready.
    • I don’t trust that guy to be very useful despite the strong start. He’s a good regression candidate. Would rather have Kopech. 
    • O's have Fabian behind Bradfield and Mullins will likely decline after '25 when he becomes a FA. I think one of those two should be able to hold down CF. Beavers could be in the mix as well.
    • Its a total joke that Wagner isn’t it in yet. 
    • I see no dilemma. He’s under team control right now during his best season’s. When he becomes a FA he will be out of his prime. I mean I love Mullins as a player and what he brings. But when we are talking about priorities for extensions, he is nowhere near the top considering you have an MVP caliber 22 year old, an ultra talented top prospect who is 20, and your team leader is 25. Those 3 are the engine that will drive this bus toward postseason glory most probably, not Cedric Mullins. If the Yanks want to give him that kind of contract while we retain 2 out of the 3 if Henderson, Rutschman, and Holliday; then so be it!  What I shudder to think about is a prime Henderson or Holliday crushing it for one of our competitors so that we can have a declining CF. Didn’t we just do that the last go around? Where we choose to resign the (predictably) declining player while we let the younger/more talented player leave? Yes, I agree that Bradfield Jr’s development is important. But since Elias/Sig have been here they haven’t struck out on any first round picks. Also, if Bradfield proves to be a bust, they can always draft and/or develop another CF type.
    • Thanks, I missed that detail probably multi-tasking in the game thread. I do think Kimbrel has a good shot*...Wagner should go in next cycle, and the electorate in the coming years will be wrestling with how Epstein, Friedman, etc. have improved per pitch efficiency by downsizing the workload literally any individual pitcher can shoulder.      There can't not be any Hall of Famers with all this run prevention going on.    I think now that he's officially retired Strasburg will be a good debate.    Bumgarner too, though I don't believe I've seen that guy yet admitting any retirement. *better shot if say he can get the last out of an important postseason series or three in 2024.
