They are who they are. They try hard but just dont have enough talent yet. I think Archie knows by now what he needs going forward. I'm in wait and see mode. I'm more interested in what happens with recruiting than stressing over losses right now.
I'm just as interested in seeing who improves by the end of the season as recruiting. Right now we have one consistently very good player and he's eligible for 2 more seasons. It would be good to see if Weston or one of the bigs shows progress between now and the end of the season. I'd like to see more efficiency and better defense from Freeman. If not, I'd expect the point guard job wide open for next season. Freeman might be better suited to being a scoring guard.

Anybody have insights into how Foumena looks in practice?

I’m not counting on Leggett staying here for his fifth season, and I wouldn’t blame him at all either if he doesn’t use it.

Just my opinion, but I think he transfers somewhere or goes overseas.

I don't know how Foumena looks in practice, but Chris Disano had this quote in his Q&A today..."Foumena is a physical specimen at 6-11, 235-pounds, and he presents even bigger in person. "

Sorry just being me, sounds like the hype machine is tuning up. Until I see some presence of a development of variety of low post footwork, multiple drop step moves, other big specimen athleticism in the low post, I will hold further comment.

Not really any hype here. Chris just saying how big he is, which he is. Look at him standing on the court in warmups. Don't know if he can play a lick, but he's definitely big.

I’m not counting on Leggett staying here for his fifth season, and I wouldn’t blame him at all either if he doesn’t use it.

Just my opinion, but I think he transfers somewhere or goes overseas.

I am not so sure 15 is wrong.
It is very difficult to keep a player around for 5 years, especially since he has been playing and didn't RS.
Depending on how successful they are, they may want to get a change of scenery or move on with their life.

We all would love him to stay, but I wish him the best whatever he decides to do.

There are hours of live games on YouTube where you can watch Foumena. I’d start there.

Bad half on both ends. Poor rebounding.

On the positive side: good half from Weston; only 6 turnovers; 6 of 6 from the charity stripe.

Great to see Carey with his trademark "run into the defender after passing to the open man on a 2 on 1 for an easy layup but instead getting charged with an offensive foul" move. 😐
