Jalen Cook transferring hurt

Tulane has the most conference wins they’ve had in a decade with 7 games still to go. He will be in the running for AAC POY

It was a big mistake

It’s easy to say this when they have been missing Adam Miller for the entire season and Pinson has been banged up.

If those two are healthy, Cook would’ve had no minutes.

Let’s call it what it was. A processing. Wade processed cook to bring in Murray, Miller, justice and pinson, in addition to keeping Gaines. There just wasn’t room for cook on this roster apparently.

Basically chose Gaines over Cook. With injuries it turned out to be iffy choice. But Gaines was penciled in as 3rd point option . I think Wade knew he couldn’t beat anybody good with Gaines playing 30+ minutes

I posted about that as well. James bishop and Charles manning are also having great seasons. Hard to say manning isn’t an upgrade over fudge, and bishop and cook over Williams at this point.

Cook wasn't as erratic with his decision making as Gaines, from what I remember.
He has 34 less turnovers on the year, and a lower turnover average.

Still think neither would have started over Pinson & Miller, without injuries. That extra experience is just too valuable.

I think Cook might have provided a calmer, steadier hand at PG while filling in, but Idk if he'd be lighting up the scoreboard.
Gaines has done an admirable job, but he shouldn't be in this position.
