All Players improve.
They get older, stronger and more experienced.
but Keith's jump from Fresh to Soph was huge
His Jump from SOPH to JR is.. not so great. Its meh if anything. He saved our ass tonight. But Still not as impressive as he should be.
As for Tre Scott, again, he was on a trajectory of improving. He's improved every single year. He's a man on a mission and is embracing his last go round. Kudos to him for that. And for Brannen for empowering it.
Dou is Dou. He has Skill. He has athleticism. But He lacks game experience and IQ. His most impressive skill is Defense and he's been under utilized defensively up until the of this game. You have a great shot blocker and shot alterer and yet he is on the pine in games where you need a stop. Tonight hopefully opened some eyes. His Ceiling Is far higher than Vogt.
But for Brannen's guys.. I haven't seen a game over game consistent improvement with guys like Maw, Vogt & Harvey. Brannen has said it himself, they are no longer freshman. Jarron Cumberland was pretty damn consistent double digit scorer this time of year in his freshman season.
The only guys we could rely on were the players who played on last years team.
59 points from 3 returners. 20 points from the other 5 guys.
