Former Huskies Elsewhere - Jan

[Palatine]

The weight gain was due to the coaching staff at that time and it back fired. Josh was slower than he was the previous year. Yes, they did try to run the offense through him that year and it did not work because of the weight gain. The following year he trimmed back down and was more effective but time ran it's course on him and was pretty much deemed defective goods at that point.

11 and 5 in 19 minutes a game is darn nice.

In what freakin universe is 30 points and 11 rebounds "not bad."

Well Brimah scored 40 once..... i thought that was the start of something big, but then DHam forgot how to work the pick and lob the rest of the season.

South Florida has lost to Georgia Southern and South Carolina St. the year. Their best win is against #236 Hawaii. They're ranked #242 on KenPom. It's a good game for Josh against a bad team.

Can you name any UConn player that scored 30 pts in an AAC conference road game?
2013-2020
Its a pretty rare.
I know of only one.
This USF team is better than a bunch of teams we played in those days

I think Jalen Adams scored 30+ at Temple once. For some reason, I also have visions of Josh scoring 30 at ECU

I mean, at #240 it's really not better than many, no. 1 team every other season or so that was worse. As I said it was a good game, just with the context in mind.

Let's not go overboard. Overall he may be slightly better in a couple areas, but no meaningful difference in statistics.

If you look at his five year stats, he is playing very much like he did here as a sophomore and junior. A minute or two less playing time this year but a bit higher FG shooting percentage (lower on FT's), but fewer rebounds.

I haven't seen it mentioned on here yet, but on the topic of former Huskies, Hilton Armstrong is now a member of the Golden State coaching staff, working in the video room.

Donnell Beverly is producing a film about Russell Westbrook.

Good for Josh but what does that say about the AAC?

Rather have the guys we have.

I'd take Josh in a heartbeat

The weight gain was due to the coaching staff at that time and it back fired.

And who was that?
As I recall, Josh played for KO 2017-2018 as a freshman and played under Dan Hurley the following 2 seasons
Did he gain that weight before his freshman season or after?

It was when Sal was brought on board

I’m not surprised by this. Carlton improved greatly under Hurley. Just a bad system fit, and he was up against Sanogo who may be the best big we’ve had in 16 years.

You could have called me out on that gtcam my bad. I know that you hold former coach and anything that is a negative in satire to him personal. Not my intent as @MDHuskFan indicated it was Josh's sophomore year under Sal s.c. and Hurley at the helm, had my coaches years mixed. But still Josh was caught in a transition that is hard to overcome, new coach, weight gain (So. year), weight loss (Jr. year). It was unfortunate for the big guy here.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Really cool to see how far Josh has come. He was too good to stay in a backup role here.

Who gives *** about the AAC.....
