Is Sanogo the go to guy now?

[UconnU]

This is around the time Bouknight started getting used heavily and became the guy last year. In the media there’s been a clear emphasis on Sanogo. He’s finally letting him play through mistakes. No one else seems to want the role. What’d you think?

 

[Get a Job]

He'll definitely be a huge piece going forward, but as long as Bouk is around, there will only ever be one go-to guy. If Bouk didn't return, Adama might evolve into that role, but let us hope that scenario doesn't happen.

P.S. Cole and Adams definitely want the role.

I think Josh Carlton is going to play a good amount of minutes vs Seton Hall this Saturday.

mamu and obiagu both start so i'm sure our 3 bigs will get good mins

 

[auror]

We just need him in a big way tomorrow.

Whaley shutting down Sandro defensively and Sanogo wearing him down on the other end will be huge.

Bouk sighting, and dressed for practice. Just saying.

Anyone remember that Akok guy?

No, it's Tyrese Martin until Bouknight comes back

Today would be a huge win! Let’s go Huskies

Should be a match up in which he plays. Our big guys must stay out of foul trouble and I have little confidence Josh can do that.

Bouk --> Tyrese ---> Sanogo --> Cole or Polley depending on the day

Against a 10-8 team at home? That's not a huge win, it's a must win.

Absolutely must win.

 

[ZenConn]

Not that freshman can't be the go to guy on a team and Sonogo is a good player but I find it disconcerting that a freshman may be called to be the go to guy on this team.

The upperclassmen need to step up big time.

That’s what happens in a rebuild where are you suddenly have talent infusion. Your freshman/sophomores are more talented than the upperclassman. And right now our 2 most talented sophomores are out with injury.

 

[BGesus4]

I’d say yes. You can reliably give him the ball and he’ll get a bucket on his own. If he was better at not fouling defensively he’d be putting up unreal numbers.

Tyrese is great and a close second but you can’t as reliably tell him to just go get you a bucket on his own.

Seton hall had a front loaded schedule. Has already played Nova and Creighton twice.

Your comment is correct but must be balanced with experience of the seniors. Our new big has a enormous upside and should be allowed to play through a few bad passes. His presence down low has been fun to watch because of his fine touch that doesn't seem to exist with our senior big men.

I think you need to put down the booze. He has talent for sure and seems to be improving with more minutes, but he is no where near being the first option inside on either end of the floor.

Quite frankly this is an insult to the way Whaley has been bringing it every night.

 

[TheChamps990411]

I am salivating at the thought of Sanogo with a summer of hitting the weights and going to a big man camp to hone his skills. He is going to be a problem for the BE.

 

[AZHuskiePop]

Whaley shutting down Sandro defensively and Sanogo wearing him down on the other end will be huge.

I agree we need Carlton to step up with that front we will be challenged in addition to Whaley and Sanogo . You may even see a little Springs .
My prediction is if our seniors have a good game we will win. I’m not saying star but give meaningful contributions.
That also means 2-4 timely threes from Polley.
