Message: [QUOTE="DaveHuskiesFan, post: 3423180, member: 935"] Vital isn't even my favorite player on this team. I'm just tired of the negative rap a top 200 player gets that's wildly outperformed expectations over the course of his career. He impacts the game in ways not many other UConn guards have (Steals and Rebounds mainly). Statistically speaking, Vital had one of the better offensive years a UConn guard has ever had last year (against worst competition before you jump down my throat). This year has not been as great, but he's still leading the team in virtually every offensive category while having the highest efficiency (And i'm not saying his efficiency is good). In a class of Durham, Jackson, Gilbert, Vital, and Diarra. The lowest ranked Vital has had the best career by FAR. For all the problems this program has had over the last 4 years. Vital has not been the reason, and doesn't deserve to take the brunt of the fall like many fans are so willingly to burden him with. [/QUOTE]
