Since we have something negative to say about his bad games, why don’t y’all say something positive!

Love the effort on the defensive end with 6 blocks. I wouldn't mind seeing him play the garbage man in his first few years; protect the rim, rebounds, putbacks, and drop offs for easy buckets.

Totally.  That's where Juwan is finding his bread and butter this year, and it obviously helps tremendously.  From every interview with Jake, it seems like he's more than happy to play that role.  The guy is plugged in, too, and may help us get a few more top recruits.

This kid is everything DeRon Davis isn't.Defensive minded,bouncy and athletic.As much as I had hoped Davis would be a force he hasn't shown it.

Don't know if Forrester is the answer but we have to have one to be competitive down low.If not TJD becomes even more important.

We change coaching staffs but the players don’t get better.

That was my thing with Crean. He could win with the right amount of talent even with his wacky substitutions and lack of regard for Defense. I knew Crean needed uber talents to succeed.

It's yet to be seen if Archie needs uber talents or just his guys but clearly he can't work magic with this group. I was hoping he could have been a wonderboy with this roster. In general I like his coaching mannerisms and principles, but as with any coach, talent is hard to beat or lose with. Recruiting is way more than half the battle.

Here's to hoping the guys we have coming in are good enough, soon enough.
