I am glad to see that we've been taking care of business and pretty easily early on in Smith's tenure - something that couldn't be taken for granted under Haase.
However, I hope we are not in for a rude awakening as we head into conference play. Looking at our non-conference schedule, our toughest games might be against Grand Canyon and Oregon?
Plus it looks like we don't have to leave the state for the next month & a half until our New Year's Day game at Clemson. All our games away from Maples during that span are either local trips, @ Santa Clara and @ Cal or tournaments in Palm Springs or San Jose.
The January clash at Chapel Hill and the February battle vs. Cooper Flagg and Duke at Cameron Indoor will certainly test our mettle.
