I'm hopeful for Quadri, I think he's got upside and needs the minutes to get experience out there, but not against Memphis with our season on the line. I think Mick has been consistently getting him floor time because he knows we will need him next year. Obviously we will have Washington & Clark but Quadri will have to fill Deberry's role come next season.

Goodwin was going right by every big man we had on him last night.

He was much quicker than Ellis, DeBerry or Moore.

I agree...kind of. Right after Ellis subbed in they went back down to Goodwin and Ellis held his own. Either Shaq or Clark doubled down on the shot and blocked it. At least it was contested. When Quadri was in there it was basically uncontested layups.

he doesnt have a good feel for the hoverboard he was riding down a hill on campus 1.5 hours before the iowa st game either....that tells me something

It says a lot of things. He does not have such a great ego that he will be seen riding poorly on a hoverboard. He is probably very coachable.

Actually fifth if you count Shaq's minutes at the 4.
