Great little article.

Bol Bowen is gonna be a difference maker in Feb/March.

Worry about his lack of strength. He gets knocked off balance very easily. He’s going to struggle against certain teams and matchups because of that. He has to play with a high motor to try and offset that.

For sure to a degree but he brings energy and is pretty decent on the offensive side of the ball.

Maybe today's game can get the bad taste out of my mouth from last night.

Didn’t get to see the game, so how did he do against utsa?

I watched the game...and it looked like an "organized" shooting contest. We passed the ball well -- and shot horribly, at least in the 1st half. Still won easily -- 97-53. We had 5 players sitting out...did not miss them. If we shoot well we are unstoppable.

97 and our shooting was horrible. lol. 39%. We live in a very different world now.

We took 82 shots in a 40 minute game. Wild.

He didn't even play due to back spasms. We'll need all hands on deck Saturday against Arizona. They should be #1 when the polls come out today!
