Heath says Townes has/had troubles....

with his knees.

Heath says that Townes suffered from a knee injury for the whole season, and never complained.

I always thought Townes was a bit of a complainer...maybe he isn't as much as I thought.

Also, in this article...pretty interesting about Steven Hill.

That explains why he couldnt run fast enough to get back on defense huh?

The only way we make the tourney next year is if him, Hill, Thomas, and Hunter(!) dominate. I have high hopes for our big men.

I still think his biggest problem is somewhat higher up...between his ears!

Washington, who should be eligible, should give some immediate fire under the rim.  I look forward to seeing him compete for some starting time...

I agree!!! Washington is going to be alot better than people think!

I really think McCowan might be better than people think also.

People don't seem to recall that Cyrus McGowan was progressing during the season, until he got hurt, which lasted till the NCAA tourney. He has tremendous upside, hate to see he didn't get the redshirt, but he's going to provide a lot of help off next year. :razorback:

I was unaware he was hurt.  When did he get hurt?

[Tomhog™]

We do have to remember that out of that whole group, Washington will be the most likely NBA bound after college.  I say forget that he is a freshman and use him often if he is the best we've got...

If McGowan's the best, put him in.  If Hunter is, put him in.  I don't care who gets the PT, just put the 5 on the floor that will be the most productive on both sides of the ball...

STan is big on having fresh legs. Why didn't he make Townes rest his knees?  You cannot have fresh legs if your knees are not fresh.

This sounds like an excuse to me.  I don't buy it.  Our loss to Sucknell was not the "Battle of Wounded Knee" , it was poor coaching, plain and simple.
Our best hope of making the NCAA tourney is for our players to win DESPITE the coaching. STANLEY is a tool.
