It's going to be interesting to see what happens with Cane's minutes from here on out. It's going to be hard for Cronin to put him and Jenifer on the court together for more than 5 minutes or so. If Cane is running cold he's probably only going to get about 15 minutes. He has to be scoring points if he wants to play 25 minutes+. He also has to be taking care of the ball and playing solid D.
Let's see if he responds well to adversity. He's clearly at a low confidence level right now but it would be a shame if he couldn't adjust his attitude to more of one like "I'll show you" instead of "why me". He's only got about 20 college games left...he needs to make the most of it or die trying. |

he has had that attitude. we dont win the regular season last year without his run at the end of the season. we don't win the early season tournament this year without his contributions. but he can have an off game and his playing time gets slashed for multiple games. he's never done what moore did. cane still is the only guy that can make 1 mistake and it gets him benched for the rest of a half or game. its got to be hard to keep fighting through it for 2 full seasons. |

whatever the reason is, it doesn't really matter at this point. cane isn't playing anywhere close to his potential and theres really no reason to think he'll get there. it didn't work out, its a bad fit. |

I saw Cane against UCLA walk right into the lane with nobody around him and didn't even look at the bucket. I don't think that has EVER happened. Coach was saying (I think post game) that Broome can't pass up open looks perhaps referring to that play IDK. Time for a little reverse reverse psychology now |

Cane's got a lot of pride so I hope (for his sake) that he flips the switch. I agree it isn't looking very likely now...but who knows

him and moore both have been passing up shots they should never pass up. who knows why they are doing it. both look like they are out there thinking instead of out there playing. |

Pretty simple for me right now. JJ and Williams are playing lights out on both ends of the floor. Factor in that Cane isn't going to take Minutes from Cumberland and it is easy to see why his minutes have gone down. Cane will still have a impact on the seasons success in my opinion. I hope he is ready when called on.

Cane is coming in for JJ and being asked to take care of the ball play defense and facilitate the offense. Don't need him pounding the rock looking for his shot. He needs to take his offense within the flow of the game not forcing it. I think he is trying to do that. He just has not been as effective as JJ at it. |
