Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3066728, member: 1414"] I think Fishy probably has this right. I have never thought that Vital was a starting caliber player for a UConn team. He was thrust into that role as a freshman and sophomore due to Al's injuries. This year he was really starting because Sid didn't really have a starter-ready game and neither did Brendan Adams. I like that he plays hard, rebounds very well and is playing smarter this year than the last two. But his ball handling is so-so, his court vision and awareness is sub-par and almost all of his offense is created by others. He's a decent spot up shooter if he receives a pass and has an open look. But the absence of Jalen has highlighted his deficiency in generating offense with the ball in his hands. He's a useful guy for energy off the bench. [/QUOTE]
