Cole can’t wait to hit the court with UConn

[Umami Zen]

Looked up his stats vs the good ones while at Howard both years. Included were GTown twice, Indiana, Gonzaga, Harvard, UMass . He didn't shoot particularly well against any of them from the field, I am sure partially because they knew he was the guy but still some ugly numbers from 2 and 3. Havings said that he consistently had great FT numbers and went to the line a lot most games up to 8 FTs while making a very high percentage that's a good thing. Also, minus one of the games he had 6/6 TOs/A he was really good in this department too. 3 games with 7-8 assists and just 1 or 2 TO's so he does get the ball where it's needed. Hoping he shoots with a higher percentage due to having scorers around him and getting more open looks. We will see but he's a nice player, just how nice not sure yet.

Agree with you on having scorers around him.. He won't have to "be the man"..People in his face on D.. High FT percentages usually suggest very good shooters from outside.. Now that we know Martin will be playing..Whenever Dan Hurley goes small ball.. We'll have a lot of tough match ups for opposing teams.. Not worried about us scoring points.. More concerned about whether we can make stops on D..

Hope that's the case. I think people are saying it's going to happen, but I don't think it's official yet.

I love Bouk's offensive game.. Can't be a Matador on defense and play at the next level.. A matter of focus and pride..

Harden does it

Good point..I think James H sees his value on the team at the offensive end.. Would still like to see Bouk become more of a two way player..At least while in Storrs..

Check Hardens defensive stats from this year......he had a very good year defensively

This is still an unbelievably savvy play.
