Sophomore year projection for Favors
- Thread starter r_u_s_t_b_u_c_k_e_t
- Start date
my projection is that he should get plenty of sleep
seriously, this research out of Stanford is pretty interesting!

Favors had 8.2 and 5.2 for us last year. He better ****ing have better than 9 and 6.
Unfortunately I think the lockout will really hurt someone like him. He seems like someone that just really needs court time. I suppose the same is true for any young player though.
Would like to see other colleges do like Calipari is at UK. He has invited all UK pros back to campus until the lockout is over. Offering no charge strength and conditioning in world class facilities, staying fresh playing against one another .. while working on college credits. John Wall (and others) has already signed up for classes.
*Before anyone else says it, yes, Calipari has already scheduled the elite recruits to visit while all our pros are on campus (soooooo shady).

White Don King does it again.
I like to imagine Knight and Kanter running into one another and Kanter says something like, "remember how you played and excelled at every level every year, I haven't played real basketball in over two years, and I got picked #3 while you went #8? It's crazy, you know. I play toughness, you know."
Have to admit it's smart though, right? I find it funny when rival fans claim he must be cheating .. how hard is it to understand that he has as many players in the NBA than any other TEAM? 3 out of the last 4 ROY. He does a damn good job of recruiting, preparing the kids for the NBA, and they perform to expectations.

Oh, no doubt about it. I don't trust a word he says if it doesn't benefit him in some way (I'm not familiar with too many things he's said that don't meet that criteria in the first place), but yeah. He's doing a great job. Most college coaches don't have the pull or have romantic notions about college, and Cal has the pull and uses it to encourage kids to go one and done. That's how you'll get the best guys. If you can keep up with the turnover, then you're doing great.

At 28 mpg he better be rebounding better than that. More like 8.5/game. But I could live with the point production given the depth of our team, so long as it's at a solid fg percentage of say 52% or greater.
I think our rebounding will improve, but I also believe there will be a dilution in rebound-average between the five big-men: Favors, Kanter, Millsap, Jefferson, & Okur (especially when Millsap plays the three).
