i dont recall the game or the year, but I think we had a play very similar to this a while back
From what I've seen, kids are actually getting slower while in college. Some of it is probably packing on muscle. Another reason is that the combine timing is on the slow side. This is why so many pro prospects do better during individual workouts than at the combine.
I'm imagining Hill doing this from the bench in street clothes.
I wish they would have just shown Solo Jr escaping the planet before it blew up. Everyone knows he escaped but we were left to wonder how and with whom.
I also really, really didn't like how Pilot Guy suddenly reappeared later in the movie. I thought the 'Oh, yeah, I'm fine, I was thrown from the wreckage, all good' kinda sucked.

Didn't he have heart murmors or something? I've heard he can't play for a long time

Any update on the Ty Outlaw situation?
My understanding is that Kyler Murray's family and local community (particularly his Dad) has been difficult to deal with and they have put a lot of pressure on the coaches and created a poisonous atmosphere. So Kyle Allen's transfer was likely to get out of that situation because it is likely that he would have people at his throat after every bad pass. I think Kyle Allen has a lot of potential and someone is going to really luck out with him.
That was definitely Rey or "jedi chick" who was being taken from her family and left on Jakku. The visions were supposed to be evidence that she is strong with the force. We've seen these visions before though. Anakin had them a couple times and Luke had a vision about Han and Leia in Empire.
Can you imagine if someone posted accusations like that around here? Yikes.
Yeah he's the littlest bitch of a bad guy we've seen so far in this whole series, I think.
There was something else I didn't quite catch all of - when jedi chick found the lightsaber in the basement of the cantina, she touched it and had like a schizo flashback of things - I didn't catch all of them but I think I caught glimpse of a little girl being taken from people (maybe Leia or herself), Luke with his robot-ass hand leaning on R2 in what looked like a post-apocalyptic wasteland, maybe Solo Jr's betrayal of Luke somewhere in there...some other stuff, I couldn't keep track of it. I thought it was quite a bit of Frodo putting the ring on and seeing visions.
MORE SPOILERS
I was left a little confused. He had incredible force control. He stopped a shot from a blaster in mid-air. He can extract information from people and he knocked Rey out with a force push. And then he's just completely lacking with a lightsaber. On top of that Rey beat him to getting Anakin's saber when they were both using the force.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the movie. We got to feel the same energy and excitement from the original trilogy. The new characters were and will be amazing.
While Ahmed practices dunking, I hope the rest of the team is practicing free throws........or maybe we're working on this:
I have never heard that explained like that. +1
Yeah I'd have to go back and check, but it may be that the timing of R2's awakening coincided with jedi chick finding her force and resisting Solo Jr. Maybe Luke felt her force awaken and then forced R2 to wake up, or maybe she was the trigger for R2 to wake up
Sorry, I didn't learn anyone's names.
Also, I'm half expecting black guy to be a jedi, too. At one point he said something about being dragged back to the desert planet and being 'drawn' to jedi chick.
I definitely enjoyed a little more depth than the simple "hey, I'm evil" Sith lord - and his interaction with/killing of Han was a great part of the movie. Still, I just didn't really ever find myself scared/intimidated by him at all. It's almost like the Dark Side is on a budget now and couldn't splurge for a decent fighter. He isn't a bad character, but to me he was a bit boring, a bit "meh". He didn't really excite me much.
I can appreciate that, but none of his actions before that showed me that fight would have gone much differently if he hadn't been hurt. I wanted to see him go full-asskickery while 100% and then see the bolt even things up a bit when he was fighting Rey and Finn. They just never really let him go off on anything that wasn't a control panel until the final fight scene.
Yeah Han and Leia acknowledge their son but never mention a daughter, I assume they would have if they knew her to be theirs.
Yeah and the old lady with the aviator goggles who owns the new cantina looked amazing too, actually like a little old lady.
Depth is an amazing thing, isn't it?
Certainly something new for VT basketball.
With all of the transfers and playing coming in and out of the program, I forgot Ahmed Hill was a person.
I meant bad enough to not have.
