From his freshman to sophomore season. If he would embrace a Demareish type of roll he could have been a defensive all-conference type of player.

Some guys play slow adjusting to the mental aspect of the game. I think that was Gant. If he adjusts to it he will be the Sun Belt defensive player of the year.

          9 of the 1op 13 scorers from the 2014 team - haeffb MU - 9/16 14:05:42
               And we went from 23 wins to 9. - quicksand MU - 9/16 20:13:46
                    I am betting that this is KAs team with the most wins - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/16 20:45:49
          This is a lie. - zodiac6 JC - 9/16 13:51:39
               Our top 5 scorers in SEC play, in order, were: - FIJItiger MU - 9/16 13:54:38
                    Top scorers and top scorers in SEC play are not the same - MizzouTigerz MU - 9/16 20:29:16

                                   Bad defense is Kim Anderson's fault. - Rabbit Test MU - 9/16 14:23:37

                                             Well, not exactly - Rabbit Test MU - 9/16 14:40:15
                                                  Gant actually made huge defensive improvement - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/16 14:44:52
                              I am afraid - Rabbit Test MU - 9/16 14:09:56
                    Different argument - "in SEC play" - haeffb MU - 9/16 13:58:36
                         Walton and Gant also played half the minutes - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/16 14:40:55
                         I'd be curious to see who actually did the scoring - zodiac6 JC - 9/16 14:01:40
                              Limit it to the three SEC wins, to be consistent - haeffb MU - 9/16 14:04:22

                              Wrong. - haeffb MU - 9/16 14:44:58
                              The results are result of bad play or bad coaching. - Rabbit Test MU - 9/16 14:25:43

               No, he was to weak to operated where he should have played - Uncle John MU - 9/16 13:46:39

                    I guess we'll see how much of a role player he is, starting - tigerdb MU - 9/16 13:47:00

                              11.9 points and 7.9 rebounds a game with MARK FEW coaching - Rabbit Test MU - 9/16 14:05:58

                                   the roster was a disaster on the offensive end, think it - Jeff85 MU - 9/16 13:52:06
