Tyler looks REALLY good playing with the pros. Like to see him thinking less and just go with instincts more.
Hmmmm . . . this will be a big challenge for the Moon man. Its exactly this that I think its at the core of CM's problems. All our players lose their willingness to go with instincts and think too much. Francis was the exception! Hopefully he paved a path for others and Tyler can follow!

Way to find the black lining in the silver cloud.

who are you referring to? I don't see this with Grant, or Nick, or Nathan, or Jacob, etc ...

I agree with 23 that Jacob goes too far sometimes in his deferral, but I don't think that's a Mooney mandate. I think that's Jacob's decision.

this reminds me of when a poster said that Burton rebounds now, but that'll stop when Mooney gets a hold of him. it's a myth. Mooney loves that he rebounds. he just doesn't land guys like Burton often enough.

Yeah, Mooney loves that he rebounds. It's just that his system that he plays our players in is not conducive to being able to rebound effectively unless they have some crazy ridiculous athletic abilities. Also Mooney is not very good at landing those types of players.

Literally it is the Mooney circular firing squad of rebounding and why we suck so bad at this year in/year out.

if we had 3 Tylers with a 5 and a PG, we'd rebound the crap out of the ball regardless of the system.

Well, we might rebound the crap out of it on the defensive end, but we affirmatively don't offensive rebound so we'd still be ranked somewhere between the 315th and 350th in the country in offensive rebounding just like we have been for the past 5 years (and thats as far back as I looked, but I'd be pretty sure we have been outside the Top 300 for longer than that!).
