RE: Kent State @ Bowling Green State University
I think you guys are being alittle hard on Walker and Sendy here. Sendy did sit him down for a half this year then brought him off the bench after that, and he wasn't the first guy off the bench either. He absolutely wastes some possessions with poor shot selection but as a whole that seems to have been improving, particularly after the benching.
To steal a line from Erik Spolestra about Dion Waiters, Walker has "irrational confidence" and honestly that's what makes him great. He plays with an intensity that gives him his edge. If you take that fire and irrational confidence away he's probably just your average MAC level guard. Do I wish he would he would never fire up an NBA range 3 with 20 seconds on the shot clock and stop letting the other team know about it every time he makes a basket? Of course. But that's not who he is. He really does drive me crazy a lot, but I also feel that he's one of the most under appreciated players we've had. Keep in mind he's likely going to blow past our all time record for threes and he has a legit shot at the scoring record.
