Nolan

[SeattleHoop]

Should get more PT. He had 6 pts and 5 boards in 8 minutes. Kept us in the game at one point. Olander stats hardly look better in 33 min and Wolf didnt do much but foul tonight. Nolan is extremely athletic and can improve alot if given the opportunity. I think Ollie needs to give him more time just my opinion.

That put-back dunk he had was awesome. I'd like to see more of that. Put him out there.

Our schedule will get easier, so I am sure Ollie will use him. I agree on Nolan, he will be very productive in time.

He played well tonight, similar to (but not as good as) Wolf in the previous game. He could be a good one, but he has a long way to go. This team has talent, they need to rebound.

Nolans problem is that he is just too thin right now. Give him a year and proper weight training and he should be pretty good

Kid really glides when he runs fir that height. Armstrong potential.

It's a committee front court. It's weak. KO is not an alchemist. The weak hand he was given before the start of the season was the front court. Only TO played any significant minutes and he played the four where his liabilities were reduced with AD and AO. Wolf averaged a little over a minute. DD didn't play the four last season and Nolan is raw. Nolan has the greatest upside because of his athleticism. But there is no way of knowing if he can become polished.

He can make free throws that's a start. Get stronger yes, gain alot of weight no- stay lean and mean. We will need him this year no doubt.

His hitting those free throws was big. Showed some composure and looked good shooting. Seems to get good position on the offensive glass.

ive been impressed with what little ive seen of nolan this year. he seems like he could be a very very good player in the future. his problem is hes not very strong right now. if he gets in the weight room and can put on 10-15 lbs of muscle he could be really good. he reminds me of a poor mans chris bosh.

roscoe would lead the nation in rebounding if he stuck around.

Agreed, I think this team is a Roscoe smith away from being a top 10 team. We need some toughness in there.

Phil Nolan looks like a Chris Bosh clone to me.

You get Roscoe and a few rebounds with limited offense or Deandre with upside?.......this is who wants to be here so I'll take DD and work with him thanks. He definitely needs to rebound the ball much much better but his overall potential is nice. This team, as some others have stated, have 30 exhibition games this year in order to find a way to be a very good team next year. Everyone will be back more than likely, so enjoy watching them mature as these are the guys who were proud to keep the UCONN on their chest......who cares about the what-ifs with guys who took the easy way out?!?!

 

[aceboon]

can't wait to see what an offseason of weightlifting and food will do form him, I like what he see. A redshirt season would've probably been ideal for him if we had the numbers but then again if we had bodies he might not have come here. he's getting a great opportunity to learn on the job and he responded with a nice bounce back effort because after what I saw on Friday I figured he would be a nonfactor for the rest of this tourney.

Nolan looks like the kind of kid we love at UCONN. He comes in very raw but athletic. Appears to not have a clue when first steps out on the floor in a UCONN uniform. But as time goes by he works hard to improve and graduates being a big part of another NCAA title and a distinguished member of the UCONN family.
