No more arguing 😋. We were lucky to have both. They started most games for 2 years together, which altered each player’s role but made them both a very formidable and awesome duo in our frontcourt. Rick’s role changed after AO’s graduation in his own last year becoming the center (from power forward) and followed JB’s plea to improve his stamina and lose weight because the team would need much more from him after the heavy loss of Wes, AO and Andy from the 09-10 team. He came through for the team especially considering the condition that Fab Melo was in his freshman year. Rick became a bigger offensive target and a necessary rebounding leader for that team.

AO was a more efficient shooter averaging .648 fg% for his career at SU while Rick was a more versatile shooter and slightly better rebounder mainly boosted by his senior year after AO was gone. Rick was really focused on his left being left handed, They were a great complimentary duo for 2 years. Both of them were bad free throw shooters with Rick having the slight edge.
