Re: UC Post Players

[Darryl Gilliam]

I think that we all agree that Rod cannot guard a stationary bike but at least he can score.  While the other post players may have a slightly better defense, it does not outweigh the fact that they are non-existent on offense.

His defense is nonexistent. Rod Flowers couldn't cover me. I've never
seen a weaker defensive player in my life. I think that's why you see
him more in the ECU game but against Memphis, Marquette and UofL he's
not going to stir from the bench. He should have played football where
you can play one way.
