As much as Kofi has improved, he hasn't shown a whole lot of touch in his shot. I hate to be critical as much as its been said that he's a hard worker and willing to learn, but sometimes he seems to struggle with a shot much farther away than a dunk.

I've seen him launch two mid-range jumpers in games. He made both.

I've seen him launch practice threes at Ubben. He connects on a reasonable percentage.

Needs to learn how to pass. He'll have 4 guys guarding him and he can't pass the ball back out?

Last year it looked like he had the basics to be able to build that into his game.
They went full tilt with rolls to the basket and post ups with him this year.
He also had 20 assists last year. He had 5 this year.

He will get a chance somewhere down the road one would think.

JCL in the transfer portal. About to be on his 4th school in 7 years.

Official winner of the HQ Tallest Midget award. Thanks, Jobu!

Would be hilarious if we went after him.

I agree, he still is awkward to an extent around the hoop, hands are rock hard most of the time, and passing is non existant. I would imagine that he will hear this and more upon another NBA eval. That said, this may end up being good for us.

They really should have cut off guys like him from getting an extra year in college. I don't understand why he's not just going pro.

Podz likely.

Family apparently did a self visit today.  No contact with players or coaches.

So they were on campus? Or they talked to Bill Self?

If it helps ..........
New gof coach, Ben Johnson, has corralled 4 transfers. One each from George Washington, New Hampshire, Lafayette and William and Mary. 2 guards and 2 wings who can score, rebound, play defense and the guy from William and Mary likes to fish for bass.
Tn was looking at the GWU guy and Wisco at the bass fisherman from Fond du Lac.
I think the gofs may now have enough players to practice 5 on 5.

People continually misunderestimate the likelihood that others will comprehend their abbreviations, acronyms, nicknames, neologisms, etc.

In this case, readers will wonder what the fuck happened to Mike Small.
