Yanick love thread

Postby 1983 Cotton Bowl » Thu Jan 22, 2015 2:17 pm

Lots of strong contributions last night. . .but boy, Tulane had no answer for Yanick. He was killing them in the paint with scoring, rebounding, and passing. He had at least of couple of interior passes (1 to MK and another to Cunningham) that were things of beauty. I love watching Yanick progress this season. In the college game it is really tough to match up with a 7 footer with his level of athleticism.

Wish he didn't get hurt last year. Could have been a special team.

He was also hitting his free throws last night. Bummer that he hasn't been stronger in that department this year, because he's getting to the line a lot. Hope to see continued improvement.

I'll show my love for Yanick by saying that my only complaint at this point about his game is the excessive goaltending (even though one of them last night was not a goaltend).

Everything else has been impressive. Especially the interior passing, short jumpers, and jump hooks.

Still makes the other team think twice. As evidenced by starks blowing some floaters against him
