Houston at ECU - Sunday 1pm on ESPN3 (W 65-49)

[pray10]

Why I love CKS: his honest talk about Gabe Grant and Chris Harris and how’s he able to make it interesting.

[bigmccoog]

I am a strong believer that coach is going to turn Harris into a decent player. Harris, at times, leaves his feet way too early. And he also tends to lean into the shooter, causing fouls. He will learn and could be pretty good. He is so much like Izundu was here, but I don’t detect the same attitude. I think Harris actually wants to learn and get better.
That said, I bet Sampson has someone like Elvin or Akeem working with him during the off season…

There is a not a problem with Harris’s game that isn’t fixable. He had some solid defensive moments and he is getting better at rebounds. If he buys in he could be a real good one for us.

I am just happy seeing an interior presence on the floor.

CKS is a pro !

Coogs playing well defensively opponent helping with that. We are a good deep team. Brady showing well in first start back, he is a force to be reckoned with down low on both sides. We are efficiently handling our business on the road.
