I think I remember him also saying his family doesn't need the money because they worked hard, So he wants to get his degree so he is in a good position no matter what ever happens in basketball.
A smart coach once said, "Potential just means you're not good enough yet." Playing on potential is like living on air: It's essential, but if thats all you have, you're eventually going to starve.

I don't think he was awful against big schools, though his shooting numbers weren't very good, as he still generally rebounded well and did as well or better in assists.

Just for comparison sake, Damian Lillard only had a handful of games against big schools when he played for Weber St. and outside of games against BYU and Utah, his shooting numbers were pretty bad against Arizona St and Cal and mediocre against Cincinatti.

I think in most cases of bad shooting numbers, its the team's best player recieving all the attention of the opposing team.
