PG Solomon Bozeman looking to USF as an option.

[smazza]

we need top talent

not sloppy seconds

i wonder why fans like usfmikeb are so happy that our teams dont compete and look bad in losing

is it the pressure of winning?

is it the pressure of having to maintain high expectations?

is it simply that people enjoy usf being sad sacks on the field of athletic competition!

we might need someone from usf's psych dept to figure this out

just watching Solomon play in the "first round game" I was trying to recall how he did for us the 1st two years found this old thread trip down memory lane dosent sound like much has changed in 5 years with our recruiting

forgot about this - from GA "With first game going OT, Clemson-UAB will start around 10 p.m. for the right to play 36 hours later on Thursday at 12:15 in Tampa. #thanks"

This goes to show you how little has changed in the past few years.

It also leaves me begging the question of how Bozeman can possibly be a starter for an NCAA tournament team, if not one of their best players. Dude was just terrible here, all he really excelled at was shooting and he had no ability to get his shot off so he mainly just shot the FT's well.

He was a freshman I believe.  Its called developing.  I'm sure if he was on this team he would have only averaged 8 to 11 ppg instead of 18, but he developed.  You can't give up on young guys so quickly. 

Howard was WAY better as a Senior than he was as a frosh.

DOJO was amazing as a junior, but was good as a frosh.

Shoot Noriega didn't get off bench as a frosh, but was a contributer as a sophomore.

He was a sophomore. His freshman year was with McCullum and then he played a year under Heath and transferred out that off-season.

His play could be because of development and/or level of competition. I'm not convinced his physical tools, or lack thereof, would ever have allowed him success in the BEast.

I fyou saw him play in the tourny game his skills have not gotten much better.  His numbers are all becasue of the competition

That's why I said he would probably be scoring 9 to 11 ppg for us instead of 18 ppg for whatever school he's at.  :

usf needs to decide to

add a year to heath or can him

lame duck status doesnt work
