Goes to show that it takes time to develop chemistry and learn roles with new players.  Bouk and Vital as a duo could hang with Tate/Chris Ricky/Khalid, Ben/Taliek and so many other good combos we've had.  Note: I said "could hang".  Anyway perhaps this is a major cause of our early losses (i.e needed time).

From the words of Bouk [I][B]“Me and him, when we go out there, we’ve just got to be the dynamic duo type,” Bouknight said. “When I came back in the second half, he said it was a little harder without me.”   [/B][/I][COLOR=rgb(41, 105, 176)][URL='https://wtop.com/ncaa-basketball/2020/02/vital-bouknight-lead-uconn-to-78-71-win-over-south-florida/'][I][B]Linky[/B][/I][/URL][/COLOR]

Love the encouragement from Vital, our leader in that statement!  Vital is confident and not threatened by the rising star,  a damn great quality hard to find in our youth. Sure Gaffney looks to step right in, but he won't be Batman (i.e. Vital).

The sad part is they are just learning to play together and doing it well.  Hopefully we get an NIT bid, just for continuation of this duo.  Enjoy them while you can.
