CT report......I know, you've heard it before. but here it is anyhow.
Ct is #1 and they deserve the rank ....
They are sooooooooo loaded I can't believe it!
Ben Gordon is "The Man" and if he has the year he is capable of..
he can call his own numbers...Don't think anyone can stop him except himself.......Last night he won the dunk contest and the 3 Pt shooting... at 'Madness"....... he 'll be 40-45% from 3 along with Rashad Anderson who matched Ben.. shot for shot...the kid LOVES to shoot and shows NO FEAR....(not always the case at CT) He'll have a few BIG games but should be good for 10-15 ppg.....Then there is small forward Denham Brown.........this kid is a scorer any way ya want it....he was a little reluctant as a freshman ....averaging 7.7 . He might be the 2nd best Defender on the team after Okafor and is ready to play an integral role this year. (also around 40% from 3) Then there is Okafor... who could be rich now if he wanted to be......best 'all-around" big man in the USA.....a scorer 16ppg , defender, shot blocker (led country) leader... best work ethic...."A" student etc, etc. Then there is Taliek Brown who will run the show for the 4th straight year....he's capable ....sometimes out of control... but will score 7.7 and 4.8 assists . he can take it to the hole...rebound and is a very tough defendor.........CT allowed opposition 37% last year ...4th best in the nation...better this year....great depth and late legs.
Then there is Charlie Villanueva who at 6'10" will contribute right away ....may be 1 and done as he almost went to the draft this year....Hilton Armstrong at 6' 10" ....Rebounder 6'8" Marcus White. Frosh guard Marcus Williams,......... 6'10" Josh Boone who impressed at madness......... Regular contributor,and excellent defendor Shamon Tooles...........Coach Calhoun thinks he has 5 guys on this team who could end up in the NBA....He needs to get everyone on the same page cuz noone has more athletes.
