He's not a world beater. Again, I don't think he'll be Davies, but he has more potential than this board is willing to give him credit for. He has potential. This board seems to think he sucks and won't ever make any difference. I disagree with this, he can become a good role player... decent scorer, good defender/rebounder.

Though I do think Kafusi has the best potential of the big guys on the team. That guy... I'm absolutely stoked to see what he can do. So much athleticism and potential.

Also, my basketball takes so far have been pretty good.

I said Utah's length wouldn't hurt us as bad as it did Wichita State. I was right. It wasn't the length on defense... we didn't have to rely on the three like they did. What really hurt us was that run at the beginning of the game and the second half. Heck, it was because they effectively slowed down the ball so much and scored late in the shot clock. Kept us from getting into an offensive rhythm, except for at the end of the first half.

I said LBSU was a better team than we thought, but they weren't top 25. That was right.

I said Utah State is an okay team that just didn't have enough firepower to stick with us at the end, but would keep it close. I didn't think they had enough weapons to hold us down in the end.

And last year, I said we'd make the tourney when everyone had ruled us out. The thread where I was ridiculed for suggesting that was a hit last year.

I know basketball. I won't say I'm always right because I'm not, but I do know the game.

Worthington does have really good footwork. He gets open looks at the basket because of it. He just doesn't finish well. I think he'll get better at this and become a decent role player.
