His digression was understandable in my opinion...he went from coming off the bench (sometimes playing in place of AJAX but mostly playing with him) to being THE 1 guard, with no reliable back-up and replacing a guy who had achieved semi-legendary status. But EE in the second half of the season was not just competent but, I think, one of the better PGs in the conference. As for FT shooting -- the whole team stunk. That is something that MUST be fixed. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: TMH 's message, "If I remember correctly, EE was 4X rookie of the week in his freshman year and a key component of that team's success. I certainly did not consider him to be a bust. My only problem was his perceived digression in the off-season. Did you notice any change in his shooting including foul shots? If he works hard in that area this summer, I think he could be a real stud this fall." on Friday, July 09, 12:00:05pm

Probably the most consistent thing about EE is his inconsistency. He certainly did a much better job taking care of the ball however... -- TMH, Friday, July 09, 02:20:11pm
- Needs to make better decisions as well. I believe he's got the ability to be an upper half A-10 PG if he gets a better head. He seemed to launch a 3pter brick at the most inopportune times. He is the PG and his job is to distribute to others for the open shot before he looks to shoot. . (NT) -- Greg, Saturday, July 10, 09:51:40am
  - Actually Greg, I thought his decision making was much improved. Over those last 12 games, I think he had 49 assists and only 17 turnovers. He only shot more than 3 treys once (4of 7 against Fordham). The larger issue is his inability to make many of them considering he shot 42% from HS and outside shooting was considered a strength by most scouting services.
