Yes, he was not "the best shooter in the country" as advertised, yet still lead our team in scoring, finished 2nd in rebounding, and 3rd in assists as a Freshman, all while being the focus of other teams' top defenders and coming off an injury and being asked to do WAY more than any player on the team except, perhaps Diarra.  The kid will most likely be drafted in the top 20 after 1 year.

Do I wish he shot the ball better and/or was more efficient last year?  Of course!  Do I think Mullins has the opportunity to be a more efficient shooter next year in a more limited role?  Yep.  But to look and say "...Mullins looks to be much better than Liam was offensively..." by watching his highlight reels of cherry pick dunks and 3 pointers against lower level high schoolers..., I'm just saying we should be thrilled if Mullins' talent translates to the Big East level at anything close to what Liam's talent level was as a Freshman.  Liam was the most talented player on the floor in many games.
