Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 2855609, member: 780"] Frank driving to the basket to score or to collapse the defense is a very good thing for SU to have as an alternative. Last year, at times, it was one of our few offensive weapons. Pretty obviously one needs two good ankles to do that sort of thing. What Frank has done over the years that drives me crazy --- and it may be just me --- is to turn the ball over almost carelessly. In my mind I have several vivid images of him lobbing the ball over to Battle or Oshae and the ball is picked off by an opposing guard for a breakaway lay up. That wasn't his ankle, that was his brain. When Frank has the ball out front, I keep repeating to myself, "Easy, Frank. Use good judgement. No lazy passes. These guys are quicker than maybe you think." I like Frank Howard, partially because he is from the DC area, an area rich in past and future SU recruits starting with Bing and the General. [/QUOTE]
