This.
You could see his progression last season and knew that he would be just fine this season. He'll be an all-time Tiger.
But the vitriol some of you miserables had for him was something to behold last season.

He’s developing into a really good point guard.
7 Points
7 Assists
6 Rebounds
Lomax and Baugh are going to be a very solid combination of lead guards for a long time

RE: Alex Lomax
To me, Lomax is going to be a Tiger great by the time he's done. The definition of a playmaker and leader. Mr. Clutch.
Bough is talented, especially when driving to the basket. He's gonna be a solid defender as well when he figures out how not to reach. But he is absolutely the worst passer there is. It's not that he's bad but his judgement when passing is beyond horrendous. Cringeworthy at best. Obviously, he's gonna get better and it's certainly correctable but $&@%#@£ A, he's frustrating.

RE: Alex Lomax
ALo is really developing as a terrific floor leader for this young team.
We are gonna be a pain in the arse for anybody facing us in the tournament.

He’s attempting the passes he got away with in high school. He will get there, IMO.

He likes the bottoms of his sneakers to really grip.

Andre said he was drying his hands.
I remember it well, especially at the free throw line...but you can kill two birds with one stone

He’s been getting open looks all year, but they went in against the Black Bears. Glad he played well.
I’ve never been a fan of A Lo and Harris on the floor at the same time, but it works if they are both productive on the offensive end. They were out there together a decent amount yesterday and it seemed to work.

Me either....and I'm still not.
