Message: [QUOTE="Hoopsfan830, post: 5696771, member: 10468"] William’s never really been a ball-hawk on the boards. You may notice it, but he tends to screen guys out, specifically his assignment (big man) to let others try to get the board. High pointing the ball off the rim, not so much. I think the lack of FGA is a function of lack of mid-range, but I had much higher hopes of him playing with a really good PG, which he hasn’t had since his Sophomore year. No, he doesn’t need to be the focal point of an offense, but an average 3-5 touches in the post would have been nice. He’s actually a really good passer out of there, even though some feel otherwise, but I think there were a few dimes dropped this season, that made you say damn. Also, he can actually knock the jump baby hook down too, so everything didn’t have to be a dunk. Probably not a surprise, but we’re related (check the post history, LOL). It’s been a joy watching him get an opportunity to play on a high level, after leaving SDSU, and UCLA not even giving a chance, so much appreciated to Cuse nation. He’ll be the first to tell you he’s bummed that they couldn’t do better, but will also express his gratefulness to play for a great fanbase. He’s a very prideful young man, that likes to win, and would be extremely pissed after a loss. He’s probably in not much of talking mood now. Participating on this board, the parallels between SU basketball and NU football is scary. You guys are just like us with the love/hate relationship for your team, coaches, etc. You guys also support when there doesn’t appear to be many reasons to. Sometimes we wonder if we’re gluttons for punishment. That dome is an amazing place, we visited for the ND game, and know it will be rocking again soon. Glad we got to see a win. Let’s see what happens in the tourney. One game at a time, right? [/QUOTE]
