Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 1426216, member: 485"] Need to look at what changed (or not) year over year. Change in team composition, especially in the backcourt? Physical change in the player? International experience? Just individual improvement in skills? To take an example or two (outside that group of 4 pgs): Triche was fully grown as a high school junior; Andy Rautins was rail thin as a college frosh. Not much room for Triche to get stronger. Rautins improved as he added muscle. KJ needs to grow up from 165 lbs to 185 as a junior. And he will. It will be a big factor in his improvement curve. Some of the others (Autry and Flynn) were more ready as frosh, and maybe had less room (and less need) for a big step up. It is a different position, but KJ reminds me of the typical skinny SU forward who can't excel without adding muscle. It takes a little more time. [/QUOTE]
