If your stats are telling me that Thomas is above average, I'm going with my eyeballs.

non-transition breakdown


xj -61.5% (above average)
Thomas - 69.2% (way above average)
wes - 52.3% (slightly below average)


as a team CU is 59.1% - above average


Thomas has an above average FG% at the rim any way you look at it, I don't know what to tell you......

jg, how often has thomas gotten to the rim, in comparison to XJ or gordon?

I think the only way we can compete with the big dogs is to run. Press and run. No half court. With out a court general out offense is going to break down. Give Ski the ball and let him run. I don't want to see a frosh or Talton start at the point.
Possibly:
Ski
Jhop
Xj
Gordon
Scott

Yeah, no.

for the record, I like it better when both the cheerleaders and the dance team are performing at the games.

I don't want to watch Eli Stalzer play the point ever again. Going to be a long season...

Both are at nationals. Won't see them Saturday either.

Dustin's got to make a big commitment to the weight room and footwork & dribble drills this offseason. He's got so much potential, but I think he's finding it much more difficult to get to his spots on this level. It can be a wakeup call when you realize that the worst scholarship player on the end of a cupcake opponent's bench might be better than your rival high school's best player from a year ago.
