Yeah coach shouldn’t yell and hurt these kids feelings. Izzo, Calipari, keady, knight,Dean Smith, Al Maguire, and millions of other coaches should never do that!!!! Oh and my mom and dad shouldn’t have either.

He went by Colliers in high school. Was originally part of the loaded class of 1982. He was committed to Wisconsin, but switched to us when Bill Cofield left.

He couldn't enroll in 82 because of an academic snafu. He played one year at Wabash Valley, transferred, and redshirted. All of sudden he was Ken Norman, aka Snake.

IIRC, he went by Ken Colliers Norman for a while.

For the most part, I agree with you. But as much as I like Rodgers and respect his effort on defense and rebounding, he's still a guy who's not a threat to score. That means you don't have to guard him. His defender just sags back and clogs up the passing lanes. Guys like Goode stretch the defense; you can't leave him alone at the arc. I don't think I saw Rodgers take a jump shot all season. He needs to add the mid-range jumper to his game, and he needs to learn to break his man down off the bounce to get that shot. I think he can do that, but until he does, you don't need to guard him. I'm still glad we have him though; so much potential.

He can score. If you don’t think Ty can be a 12/8/5 type guy then I don’t know what to tell you. He is HIM.

Yep. If given the opportunity to play starter minutes, his skill set can get him 6-8 pts just in put-backs and garbage buckets… Add a couple of dibble-drive makes and you get to double digits without a single jump shot.

Would love to see him develop a reliable mid-range game, though.

If you do see that, you’ll see him in the nba the season after. It’s all he’s missing.

Despise Sampson, but when he's done with that program is remarkable.

Yep. If he could have just resisted the temptation to cheat and violate the norms of the coaching community and just generally keep from being a piece of !!!!, he could have had the kind of career someplace where they would eventually name the court after him.

Same goes for Pearl.

That said, I hope that they each poop their pants every day for the rest of their own lives.
