He's obviously a Division I player; there are like 3 posters who say otherwise and everyone here recognizes that they've pretty much spun off this Earth.

Objective standards...I dunno, for sophomore off guards, Cooney played about the same number of minutes as Devendorf (about two fewer points per game, similar percentages, much better defense, much worse distributor) and Triche (a hair better in most categories). With 200 more minutes than Waiters, Cooney scored half a point less per game, shot better from three, much worse from the field, distributed the ball worse, and defended better.

"Solid" and the like are difficult to quantify. As a Syracuse shooting guard, it seems that Cooney's offensive production is behind that of his recent peers. Going forward, I think everyone could agree that -- absent some spectacular production from elsewhere on the floor -- the team really needs better than 12 points on 10 attempts (at 40%) with few free throw attempts and little ball-handling or distribution from the two guard spot.

A tiny minority of posters wants to say absurd and kind of rude things. The rest is just reasonable basketball discussion.
