Does this event also involve the women's team?

I’ll be there, of course, but why 830? That’s is already past my bed time.

I disagree with the 8:30 start time. My young son who is a huge Queta fan would have really liked to go to this but late start on a school night isn't going to work.

It used to be midnight madness. Having it at 8:30 is already 3.5 hours early.

I just don't like that it's on a Thursday night. It would be nice to make it more accessible to out of town fans. They should have done it on October 19th right after the Nevada Football game.

Come on, if you live in Logan let him go! Fun one-off nights like these are nights kids remember and really love.

I remember as a kid my dad letting me stay home to watch the usu March madness game (I believe Ohio state). Probably remember that much more than what I would have learned in school that day.

I think I know the answer, but any chance this is going to be streamed for those of us out of state?

aggies1 · Post by **aggies1** » October 10th, 2019, 3:37 pm

I believe the Cache County schools don't have school on Friday so if your kid goes to any of those schools, you are in luck!

Damn...Thursday evenings are the day I spend time getting my fill over on the Cougar board. Wish the Utah State AD would get their (I can't express myself without swearing) together and make these events perfect for my schedule.

If any one on the board was able to go to this and share their thoughts that would be great. I wish I could have made it up for this.

Chatman · Post by **Chatman** » October 10th, 2019, 9:07 pm

Marco Anthony and Alphonso Andersen will be immediate impact players. Bairstow could be also. I could see Porter and Miller coming off the bench this year. Very deep team. It’s possible you could see a bench of Miller, Porter , Brito and Bean

Aggiefan33 · Post by **Aggiefan33** » October 10th, 2019, 9:15 pm

I thought Anthony had to sit out this year.

He didn’t necessarily say that Anthony would be an impact player this year lol spending a year on the scout team will do a lot of good for everyone

Sorry didn’t know that. Watching him though he will be good

trombone_ninja · Post by **trombone_ninja** » October 10th, 2019, 9:37 pm

The real question I have is did the women’s team just not get (or want) the new uniforms?

tysteve20 · Post by **tysteve20** » October 10th, 2019, 9:47 pm

I also felt that Justin bean had improved a lot in the off-season although anything during that scrimmage was hard to tell because it was basically an NBA All-Star game with as many lobs as possible

Anyone know why Grootfaam is listed as a senior on the roster on utahstateaggies.com? Shouldn’t he be a redshirt junior? In their bio it even says he redshirted last year, his first year at USU.

Usu0505 · Post by **Usu0505** » October 11th, 2019, 6:56 am

But did Quetta have a brace on and what brand exactly?

Queta suited up and was wearing a brace. But he did not participate in the scrimmage.

Aggiestyle · Post by **Aggiestyle** » October 11th, 2019, 10:42 am

Did Queta noticeably favor his knee when he was warming up etc. I realize he didn't participate in the scrimmage.

Because of some kind of transcript issue, Grootfaam lost a year of eligibility and also lost his appeal. It's the same kind of issue we had a few years ago with Alexis Dargenton.

The coaching staff assumed this was coming and has been recruiting accordingly for a couple of months now. I was asked to hold off on saying anything until the appeal process was completed.

They got new uniforms as well, just different new uniforms.

I don't think he favored the knee, and I watched fairly intently while he was on the floor. I was quite impressed with the athleticism of the team as a whole. Kuba moves quite well for his size. While tough to tell based on the type of play, I'm not sure he'll bang for rebounds. McChesney looks raw and very promising, Bairstow and Anderson look like they'll both contribute right away. Bean looked quicker than last season. I'm wildly excited to see this team. I'd hoped to see something from Roche, not sure what he'd be like in a regular game as opposed to last night's dunk fest. I was very impressed with Anthony's shooting in warmups.

USU78 · Post by **USU78** » October 11th, 2019, 11:29 am

A little bit of Bairstow vs Kuba. Which one was the stiff somebody mentioned? I forget.

#2, Bairstow, is 6'8 and will likely see time at the 1 spot. And the 2 spot. And the 3 spot. Kuba, the 7'2 kid, may be your starter at center to begin the season, depending upon Queta's rehab and cardio.
