Great stuff Oliver and welcome (officially) to the GoMiddle crew! I know Matt is thrilled to have you aboard. Looking forward to seeing more content from you (and maybe even a podcast???) and the guys this season.

Good stuff. Cant wait til I get to watch them play.

I’m an idiot for not formally introducing @OliverLBaltz to the site.. Oliver has done fantastic work with the Blue Raider Report! I’m amped to have him on the same team!

You can either die the hero, or live long enough to become the villain.

Anyone have an educated guess on the starting lineup tomorrow?

Jordan Davis is really the only safe bet. If they feel confident in Dish's health, he would be one as well.

I think its Jackson vs Coleman-Jones at the 5. And two of Sims, Jalen, Shuler, and Johnson will be at the remaining backcourt spots.

King not in running to start?

Nice write up!

I dont think he would be. Solid player but for now, expectations need to be tempered to "Mississippi State reserve" instead of "former top 150 recruit."
