What's up with Manyawu's minutes each game? 12 and 13?

The sick family member excuse to transfer is the lie which continues to be told, and for some reason people continue to believe it
In most cases sure, but in this instance his mom has had 50+ rounds of chemo for stage 4 colon cancer.

Manyawu is absolutely garbage. Sometimes in a good way. But starting the game with him is smart cuz often the refs let physical play go early then reel it in later.

He had to throw together a roster. You’re right and I’m pretty sure he knows it too.
Is taking nearly all of a R2 tournament team really ā€œthrowing togetherā€ a roster?

His mom is not well and I believe he has a younger sibling with special needs. It was a great opportunity for him to play within 30 minutes of home and make some money. Unfortunately for him he has to play with Owen Freemans fat, lazy ass again.

Combs is fine as a backup PG. We are a group of fans who not all that long ago watched Brady Ellingson be the second option at PG. The last two years we watched a midget get abused every possession on defense at the position.

I really wish Dix would have stuck around. Good secondary ball handler, good shooter, probably would have turned himself into a good defender.
He was a good defender but surrounded by Fran and his merry band of retards it was tough to pick out at times.

Cooper still has his moments on defense, but it appears he’s starting to figure it out. Josh would have too.

Hes not very good. Better than ladji dembele. But not very good. He doesnt necessarily need to be anything but a scrapper/defender/garbage man though. Frankly not a bad complement to folgers.

pierre did offensive things in nearly every position
I mean, he really dominated when he was in. Could take it down low like a big man but also a strong penetrator and could even hit from deep once he got rolling. Would have been first team all big ten that last year.

I like having a 4/5 garbage man on the roster like Manyawu. It seems like more than half my life we've had a guy like that on the team. Undersized/under-recruited rebound eaters. Some bad, but a lot of good too
