[QUOTE="rtbritt, post: 1972749, member: 4615"] When we had Ayo and Kofi for those really good teams, we had Plummer, Grandison, and Trent as really good shooters. Then Ayo and Adam Miller were both threats (Damonte was a threat one year.) Add that Ayo and Kofi were superstars and Trent and Plummer had ability to take-over... those teams were really, really good. ^^I'm putting my memory of multiple seasons together with those sentences above (I know.) Those teams were really good, but with Kofi, it somewhat limited what offense and defense we could play, which hurt when he was in foul trouble or not playing really well.....also in the tourney when guard-play tends to win. I saw an article on the home page saying that our current 2023-24 team was the best team since BU has been here, and they made good arguments, but when I start looking at who we had during the Ayo and Kofi years, I'm not sure I agree with that article. Shannon is an absolute stud, and our defense is killer, and if Shannon and Goode keep shooting 40-45% on 3s, maybe they are the best. [/QUOTE]
