Darcy is still adjusting to the speed and athleticism of the game but he's improved significantly and if he continues to improve he will be a solid player by his senior year. You can't coach someone to be 7 ft and he's got a nice touch. He's just still a liability at times down low.

It is amazing to me how guys with such big hands have such a hard time holding on to the ball. Malone, Odo, and Robinson all have height advantages and continually have rebounds that hit them square in the hands that inevitably fall to the other team. It's unbelievable that teams seem to get more second chance points when LSU has 7 foot players on the court instead of a smaller lineup

At this stage in the game Tuba > Elbert. Tuba was aggressive and actually had decent hands. Elbert has none of the above. Hopefully he can improve down the road.
Darcy has great handles and nice touch on his shot. But, how can he get 4 fouls and still come away with 0 rebounds. A lot of times he is still guarding his man after the ball is shot instead of blocking out and looking for the rebound. Seems like an easy fix yet I haven't seen him improve this part of his game.
