Lest, you think ithis is a negative post, I think Downey will be able  to 
play at this level, it just won't be as easy as it was during the  non-conference

You don't have to beat around the bush when you tell the truth. Stats are  so 
misleading. UC was always a leader in field goal percentage shot against  
them. Why? Because they played good defense. I'm sure there has been many people  
say UC beat them because their team only shot thirty some percent. They don't 
 know enough about basketball to know there is a reason for that sometimes. 
Stats  in a lot of cases reflect the quality of teams you play. You can rack up 
some  impressive stats against Prairie View for example. Downey same thing. 
Against  bigger better guards he will struggle. He will learn what he can do 
and can't do  against them in time. You don't need stats to figure out which 
teams can play  the game and which teams can't. Don
