Struggled in the earlier exhibition vs the Tar Heels as well though not as badly as tonight vs #2 Bama.
Haggerty finished with 32 pts.
Kennesaw State celebrated Abdur-Rahim yesterday:
Just now seeing this about Bama’s Youngblood, who played at USF last season before transferring to play for his hometown team. As such, #2 Tide even more shorthanded than I had thought and still pretty easily handled the Tigers, who were without Tyreek Smith. Memphis didn’t make a 3 until under 14 min left in 2nd half. And although Haggerty “showed up” after halftime, he was aided by the decision not to enforce fouling out for this neutral court contest.
Bulls beat Edward Waters U (D-II) 94-51 in an exhibition. Open regular season on Monday vs Florida in Jacksonville. Interim coach Ben Fletcher in 4th pic.
I’m surprised. Pleasantly
