JOSH!!!???? Hell yeah man!!
He NEVER did that as a Husky.....
I don’t get the “digs” over Carlton. We choose between him and Sanogo. We made the right call. He elected to go elsewhere. He made the right call for him and is having an outstanding year for a team that, if we’re honest, would be competing with the leaders in the Big East. I’m thrilled to see him having such a great experience with his extra COVID year, and will root for him as one of ours unless Houston plays UConn.
12 points & 6 rebounds are good. He's a little better at Houston than he was at UConn. His 18-19 year for UConn he had 9 pt / 6 reb, in 19-20 he had 8 pts / 6 rebs,...so not a major jump. If he gets 20 mins per game he'll get you 8 -12 points & 6 rebounds.Are you kidding? This board crucified Carlton for the last two years, and this year he is averaging 11.9 ppg on 60.7% shooting, 6.4 rpg, 1.1 apg. Whether we needed him this year or not, we certainly could have used him more last year.
I remember there was one poster who kept saying that Hurley should play Carlton more. Who was that?
Honestly 12 points & 6 rebounds are fine but not earth shattering.

He didn't fit her with Sanogo, he could only get 10 mins a game last year, would have been same this year...Sanogo is much better.

[/ollie and staff did a bad job developing him

It’s a nice thought, but ultimately there are only 40 minutes available at the 5. Sanogo and Carlton can’t play anywhere else and there are times where you need Whaley in there for his defense. So it really is a zero sum game between Sanogo and Carlton (mostly) for minutes and obviously there just weren’t enough there for Carlton’s liking. There’s nothing wrong with that and he found himself a great landing spot.It should have never been a matter of choosing Carlton over Sanogo. They are different players.
Each guy should've been in the game according to tactical advantages that Hurley should've wanted to exploit.
Carlton is an elite passer? I like the kid and thought he deserved better but give me a break, youre making him seem like Jokic. He's a good big thats dominating a horrible conference. Happy for him regardless, but you sound like kind of a moron.Those averages have spiked in the last month now that Houston is playing through Josh (after Sasser and Mark went out). He had 15 rebounds yesterday and his impact on the game now is closer to that number.
Teams will scheme Sanogo (in March) much differently than they would've been able to scheme Carlton (who is an elite passer). The reason Sampson wanted him was Carlton was one of the only bigs he'd seen that showed an ability to score on Houston's double team "Monster" sets in the post.
Sal bulking him up ended up being a big mistake. I think he gets a shot in the league.That's a degree of mobility I've never seen from him before. Shedding the extra weight seems to have been a great decision.
