16. Markus (twice in a row) took tough (one off balance) shots early in the shot clock when we were milking it late. Your senior leader/AA has to play smarter tan that.
So fun watching you....not long ago you wanted Cain to ride pine. Patience is in short short short supply at Scoop when it comes to player development.
I really like this point, M'quette. How many minutes would Cain have played if Joey were still around?I am NOT saying I'm glad Hausershima happened. I'm just saying that every situation leads to something else, good or bad. Joey's absence has led to a great opportunity for Cain, and I am proud of the kid and happy for him that he has taken advantage.After Markus picked up his fourth foul, our four non-bigs on the floor were Cain, Sacar, McEwen and Elliott. Four athletic guys with good height/length and good defensive skills who were able to switch on pretty much any player K-State had. Throw Bailey, Symir and Akanno into that group, too, as well as Oso and Lewis to replace (numerically) Sacar and McEwen next season.Excited about our future -- both the rest of this season and beyond.Heck, even joyless willie actually sounded almost not miserable!
Y'know Cheeks, you should ride the pine. Cain has been a favorite of mine, and I do not recall saying he should ride the pine. If I did, it was in a game where he was not playing well. But hey, we all must bow to the opinions of the sage Cheeky!

Glad to see Cain becoming a big factor. He needs minutes, and he is as good a shooter, if not better than Bailey, and a better rebounder. Symir can handle the ball and needs more minutes at the point. When it comes down to it, after Markus, the 2 through 9 rotations all have about equal overall talent, with pluses and minuses. We have a three headed 5 with Theo being the best rim protector. Symir looks to be the best at point and Cain should get 25 minutes per game. The rest all are talented. Can Wojo figure it all out?
Also, MU currently is ranked 14th in wins above bubble. Really, really good resume.
McEwen is back next season.
McEwen is a junior
