I saw Ehsan's quote about going to the paint more often and involving Tosin, and I cringed.

Ditto. We went to that well a few too many times against Furman and IMO it was part of the offensive momentum killer.

This is where Sullivan redshirting hurts. He doesn't miss baskets down low and that helps a lot when the bench comes in and feeds the post.

I agree. We will have to be a very consistent perimeter shooting team to be successful against the teams we'll see over the next month. I can all but guarantee you Cokley is going to be scattered smothered and covered.
