Uggh, great display here. Arguing over SU players , ripping on them, comparing them- let's vote on the internet 'winner' sitting in front of their computer. :rolleyes: Craig Forth, Gerry McNamara, Donte Green, Terrence Roberts, Andy Rautins, Brandon Triche, Scoop, Trevor Cooney etc all took their turns being the assigned team goat. Always disheartening,  disappointing and confounding seeing 'fans' designate their favorite team goat and even get defensive if someone dares defend their favorite themed player to rip on. :bat:Comparing Howard and Cooney who had totally different positions, different teammates and never even played any true minutes together nor vied for playing time.

Cooney played, coordinated up top defense and offense with 4 different point guards - MCW, Ennis, Joseph and Mike G in his years here. Opponents from 2012 through 2016 averaged 6.2 to 7 three pointers made a game. This year opponents even before the meat of the season are averaging 9 made 3 pointers and having the highest % made .385 in any of the previous 5 years (which was 2013-2014  at .345%). Made 3 pointers are a function of the communication , execution and rotation by the entire defensive effort for all 5 players to the perimeter. Even one weak link and offenses will jump on it.
