Those numbers were for Steph's first college game 2 years ago. Not sure who the opponent was.

Steph's first opponent was Eastern Michigan in a tournament in Ann Arbor. Davidson was down 16 at the half and rallied to win by 4. The next day we played Michigan. He had 32 points, 4 assists, and 3 turnovers in 35 minutes. The next day we crushed Central Connecticut. He's been pretty good since. I'm glad that Seth had a big night. I knew you guys would love him. If he keeps it up (and he will) I'm betting that ESPN will pair Davidson and Liberty in the Bracket Buster event. I'd bet on both coaches requesting it (my understanding is that prior to the event, each coach gets to submit a wish list of opponents). Hope to see you in February!

I'd certainly be thrilled with that, cat. It would likely be among the most appealing options for ESPN when it comes to decide who gets the television spotlight.

I can picture duelling Curry's coming down the strech.

I'm trying to keep from getting too excited so I want to point out that Steph's first game was against obviously better competition than Seth's. With that being said, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Seth goes out and does the same thing against Asheville on Tuesday.

I am the same way...but the thing is, he didn't even look like he was trying too hard and he filled the stat sheet out pretty well...to me that is a sign of a really good player..I am not saying he wasn't playing hard...it just seemed so effortless...

That's the part that makes it so hard not to get excited. I've seen him in practice and it doesn't look like he's even trying that hard and he's draining stuff from everywhere on the floor.

yeah...its hard man....but i am excited...and I believe that seth is going to bring the best out of anthony smith...which will be great...

this team isn't going to be amazing this year...but they will be a ton of fun to watch....I can't believe Liberty got somebody like seth curry...it blows my mind how major programs pretty much ignored both him and his brother....but I am thankful for it!!

With all the talk about how hard it is not to get excited; being basically lazy in my old age, I'm not going to bother with all that effort. Getting excited is, well......................... exciting! :pbjtime :woohoo :cartwheels :cheerleader

As long as I don't make a fool of myself with rash predictions, the worst it can lead to is disappointment. I'm an old hand at dealing with that.

Read carefully. It is a double negative. I am NOT going to make an effort to NOT be excited, just so I won't risk being disappointed. I will take the path of least resistance and just allow myself to be excited, and deal with any resulting disappointment as it comes.

If/when we play Davidson I will make a sign:

Our Curry is better than yours

LeBron has been called "King James," but "King Curry" has better alliteration. :idea:

I think you'll find that, like Steph, the best thing about Seth will be that he makes everyone around him better. And having that wonderful family associated with your school is a huge plus.

Thanks to those of you who found your way over to www.davidsoncats.com We'll all be watching Seth's season and hoping that he puts up crazy numbers.

I was impressed with his aggressiveness on defense especially with his quick hands and anticipating passes but I think he was just a little too excited on defense trying to get steals off passes and didn't contain and when playing better teams, things like that will cost you. I was also really impressed with his penetration offensively and how he wove his way to the hoop. Way to go kid.

The buzz is going to build even more after tonight's upset. This was written earlier in the day ...

Birthplace: Charlotte, North Carolina

Father: Dell Curry

Mother: Sonya Curry

College experience: Freshman

Wait, isn't Stephen Curry a junior?

Yes, yes he is, but his younger brother, Seth, is a freshman at Liberty University.

After missing out on his older brother, it looks like the most prestigious college basketball programs may have missed out on Seth.

I love this kid...I think I high fived his mom about 30 times tonight....I'm a true believer



I'm not a fan of look at me type moves on the court but that swoop he did after the 2nd free throw was tight

I just read this quote in the article Sly posted yesterday. Has anyone else heard this? I know our recruiting class was top 50 in the nation (maybe 48th). What was Radford's???
Radford is the only Big South program that brought in better freshmen for this season.

Carter ranked better? Who did those rankings? Stevie Wonder.

I believe that was the SI rating, but the fact is Carter was much more highly recruited than Seth and was rated highly by several services.

Weren't Carter & Brolin both recruited by several SEC and ACC schools--with legit scholarship offers--and Seth only had offers from Davidson and Va Tech (and Tech wanted him as a walk on)?
