DILLY DILLY

His footwork used to be atrocious, but it goes to show what good coaching is able to do for a player. He was rarely (if ever) out of position on either end of the court. Best D I've ever seen from him.

Plus, the few times he got stuffed, he would go right back at them the next time he got the ball down low - wasn't phased at all.

When he plays with energy he’s the difference maker for this team. Offensively we’ve never had a big with his skill, but his defense and physicality are lacking sometimes. When he comes out with the right energy and attitude he’s a All-SEC level player examples like the Kentucky, Vandy and tonight’s game prove what he can be. We only play twice a week there’s no reason he can’t get motivated and play with intensity every single time out. Our next two games are against much smaller teams, he has a chance to really get it going in these next two. I’m hoping we get the good Reath and if we do it could change the season.

Dude has carried us offensively some nights. Love watching him work in the post. And the occasional pick and pop three ball is a nice added bonus.

Agreed. His offensive game has exceeded any expectations... Having said that, he's the worst 6'11 rebounder...

A few games that I was able to attend, it seemed like he was the only one who really wanted to win, as far as leaving everything you have out on the court. Notably, the UK game.

And I'm not saying the rest of the team didn't want to win, bc obviously they did. It just seemed his hustle was on another level than the others in some games.
