Nice exchange of opinions guys.
By virtue of TC being the PG the offense is going to start with him. Being a clutch performer takes on two meanings in that role. Some guys like Kenna Walker got the ball and you knew he was taking the shot. SK was the same way either score or get fouled. TC can be a factor without taking the shot. He can draw defenders.deliver the ball in a spot where Gary can make a move or score himself. In late game situations it is beneficial to have that player being the guy who handles the ball. One less pass if time is a factor. |

That was a special performance that kid put on yesterday, absolute awsome game. 37 points 10 rebounds 0 turnovers....put the team on his back. He's setting up what could be a special special senior year for him.
cant wait to watch him the tourney next week Last edited by Bearcat Rob; 03-12-2016 at 01:02 PM. |

Since his 0-10 1 point game vs Houston, he is averaging 16.5 ppg in 14 games. FG% still isn't there, but he's definitely figuring out how to get where he wants on the floor. Smart adjustment by him yesterday too...he kept trying to get all the way to the hoop and got blocked a few times. In the OTs he made 3 shots by pulling up and getting it on the rim from 10 feet. |

absolutely a great performance by TC. If I have a problem at all with him I'd like to see him a tad more consistent scoring the ball. Really think he'd benefit having another guard playing with him that could also handle the rock.

Granted that Troy's 37 inflates this stat slightly, over his past four games he's avg. roughly 24-5-5. Pretty solid going into tourney time.

I was critical of Troy early in the season. He has really come on as the season progressed. I'm hoping that his outstanding game against UCONN and his inclusion on the 1st team all-AAC delivers the "STAR" player that we so badly need. His confidence has to be at an All-time high. I saw Kevin Ollie cradling his head and talking to him in a huge show of respect after the game. The timing of all of this couldn't be better. Clark got some great recognition as well. KJ hit a huge clutch shot to almost win the game. There are some really good signs leading into March Madness. These first two games are games that we certainly can win and with confident players, let's hope we finally break through and catch some breaks. The program could use some much needed positive exposure. I'm really excited about the possibilities next season and I hope this tournament creates some great momentum that can carryover to next season.
