Thanks for the welcome!
I am a sport writer for the university newspaper, and cover the men's basketball team. It's a blast!

Scott Henry is probably our most solid player, followed closely by Brown. Jeremy Brown can be streaky, but when he's on, he's awesome! Great 3-point shooter, penetrator, and rebounder. Makes spectacular passes, too. He made a sweet backdoor pass to Danny Boticki in that Weber State game last night that drew "ooohs" and "ahhhhs" from the crowd. We have an interesting team. I wasn't quite expecting it to play as well as it has up to this point, but am enjoying it!

David Schroeder suffers from "Marquis Poole" syndrome. I'm not a huge Poole fan. He's a spectacular ball-handler, and penetrates VERY well, but he can't shoot at all. And, he seems to hog the ball too much and take too many shots. The other night against Eastern, Schroeder could have easily scored 30 points. He was on fire! But, Poole wouldn't give him the ball. I guess Poole used to play for Eastern and their coach said he'd never be a point guard (or successful one) in the Big Sky. Poole was trying to prove him wrong instead of trying to win the game. Didn't impress me much.

Anyway, enough with my rantings and ravings. I'll be happy to share any info and insight I have.
