Brooks from Jan 27-Feb27 last year 8 games 5.3 points 7 boards 1.3 blocks 15-45 from the floor 33% Vogt last 8 games 7.1 points 5.2 boards 1.7 blocks 24-44 from the floor 54.5% Brooks was able to bounce back a bit in march. I'm not sure Vogt has it in him, too many minutes on that body. |

in his 30 minutes of PT vs wichita st this year he was 3 rebounds, 0 blocks, 1 stl, and 11 points. when Vogt puts up numbers like that you go on and on about how much he sucks. |

As much as I like Diarra, he doesn't seem to be nearly as comfortable playing the 4 as the 5, especially on the defensive end. At the 5 on defense he is, at times, as dominant as a defensive player can be. At the 4 he tends to make a lot more mistakes and get lost more. Cronin was using him as a 5, so it's likely he just has less experience at the 4. If he were starting at center, I don't think I'd want to rotate him to the 4 and have Vogt play the 5 much. That leaves just small ball (with Diarra/Vogt at the 5) to rest Scott. But if you play small ball with Vogt at the 5, you have nobody on the floor who rebounds well. So that means maybe you can only rest Scott when Diarra is playing at the 5. Regardless, even with the current lineups I think the conclusion is that Scott needs to play every possible minute that he can. Scott is our most valuable player right now and luckily seems to have the stamina to play major minutes. |

I was defending the players. I said y’all are being incredibly hard on a player who was never recruited in this system who was struggling. Y’all had so much shit to talk about Tre Scott earlier in the year. Just like everyone here talked shit about Jarron. Some people questioned his buy in, his effort level, some said he should be benched. I said brendel mentioned he was injured. No one wanted to hear that UNTiL it fit the narrative to protect John Brannen from criticism. I’ve been consistent in my defense of the returning players. I defend them when they were having poor showings and praise when they are great. I mean there were people on this board who were saying that Tre Scott just isn’t a good player. I’m glad he proved you wrong. Feels like this board is celebrating a national championship win or something. We beat USF. I think it’s been 11 straight times. I’m glad we won, I’m glad Brannen adjusted and glad his wife thinks it’s worthy of shutting up the haters. It never hurts my ego when UC wins guys. If John Brannen gets us to an Elite 8 in the next 4 years, I’ll get his initials tattooed on my ass. And I’ll proudly show it off. If he wins. I’m happy. But man, the gloating after this win is a bit extreme. Let’s make a run and unite the fan base. |

I've been saying for a while imagine what Scott could have been with 4 years of Brannen.
Scott is an interesting guy. He'll still make really bonehead plays you just don't expect from a 5th year Sr, and he'll make them every game. But he always works hard and when he trusts his athleticism he's really good. I think sometimes he forgets how athletic he is. |

I judge by what I watch, stat lines can influence me to a degree sometimes, but on a small scale (one game) they can be poor even when a guy has a good game (especially a guy like Diarra whose main influence on the game is on defense). |
