The UConn fans putting a lot of their eggs in the Terry Larrier basket, hope he doesn't disappoint them.

I was not impressed at all by Larrier at VCU. He was just a freshmen, but he just put up tons of shots even though they never went in. He shot 122 3s and only 26% went in. He made less than 20% of his mid range jumpers and had a lot of trouble finishing at the rim as well, making under 50% of the easiest baskets in the game. He will need to have made incredibly massive improvements in his shooting ability or drastically reduce the number of shots he takes to not be detrimental to UConn.

UConn fans referring to Larrier as "a 5-star recruit who started for VCU as a freshman" who will be counted on as one of their primary scorers next season.

Frankly, given all the hype around his recruitment, I was never that impressed with Larrier either. All sizzle and no steak.

What? No La Salle? I thought with all of their transfers they were going to be like the team from Blue Chips and run roughshod over the league!
