Georgia Tech vs Bryant: Preview

Georgia Tech has 10 newcomers to the program this season, and it will take some time for things to iron out and mesh well moving forward. There were some promising things and not-so-promising things on Monday. With the addition of five new freshmen coming into the fold, and four transfer portal players coming in it will take time for this group to mix. One solid sign is that true freshman Mouhamed Sylla played well and showed great promise. Eric Chatfield also came in as a young guy and gave valuable minutes on the defensive end and hit some big buckets. How far this team will go is predicated on how the young guys continue to improve. 

“Well, you can you can blame it on that, or we can blame it on that. We can use it as a built-in excuse. But again, I think that some of it is getting a feel for each other, but then some of it is that, you know, and I really believe that sometimes you don't, you don't really understand until you get into a game, you know, you can't take anything for granted. You've got to come out, you've got to play the right way. We turn the ball over, and I've been saying this to anybody who would listen. If we're playing with 10 turnovers or fewer, we're going to win every game. Tonight we had 13. And to me, a lot of them were unforced. And we got to cut that out, you know, and the biggest thing each and every game is understanding assignment none and guys understanding that we don't need home runs. We need singles and doubles. We don't need the spectacular play. We need to keep it simple. I don't want to put it on that, but I do believe uh that it's something to it, but I'm not going to sit here and use that as an excuse of why um it looked like it did.”
