No I think they were somewhat expected. Competent guard. Athletic with a willingness to take and make big time clutch shots. His video coming in had him pulling up for long 3s to win games.

Think the only question was would those traits translates over to the caliber of players hell face in AAC or our out of conference opponents.

His midrange pull up game has been was nice to see yesterday.

The move from the A-Ten to the American is not a sea change. It's a step up, but a small one. As long as we don't ask him to do too much, he looks like he's going to be a nice addition.

What do you disagree with, you think its harder to score in the AAC than in the A10? Non-conference wise he will be facing a tougher schedule but in-conference he's not stepping up a level, both conferences are relatively on the same level of players/competition.

You cannot possibly believe the AAC and A10 are the same level, I'm sorry.

You know, I was thinking this too.

They are motioning better on offense than years past, not just passing the ball around the perimeter.

Now they just need those shots to fall.
Exactly we need Larrier to just be a catch n shoot guy because we see when he decides to put the ball on the floor from the perimeter

Agreed. I noticed at least a couple times last night that Cobb and/or Onuorah set a screen at the foul line then rolled to the basket (as they should) and were wide open for a layup but the guard with the ball never even looked at them. If you're going to pick and roll then you at least need to take a quick peek when the 5 rolls to the basket.
Right or pass the ball to another man on the perimeter so they can pass it to the roll man to the basket for an easy deuce
