Richie, Richie, Richie! He had 19 possessions and his pts/poss was very nice! He does everything for this team. It was somewhat surprising to see how assertive he was on the offensive end. His GameScore was his 2nd highest for his career (he had a 28.1 against Idaho earlier this year). I wonder why he was so assertive on offense but he was looking to shoot from the get go.

Watching Keita in person work down low for the rebound is impressive. He just knows how to get rebounds. He's not that tall for a center but has a knack for getting the rebound.

Demin struggled a bit. 7 assists but 5 turnovers. It was nice to see him get a little aggressive in the 2nd half with the ball in his hands. Teams are definitely going to be very physical with him on the perimeter when he's dribbling. Houston will be all over him on Saturday.

Catchings had another nice game. He had a small slump in the middle of non-conf play. It's apparent that he's starting to figure a few things out in college. Conference games will be tough but his athleticism and length will help make up for some mistakes.

Gonna be a tough one on Saturday.

Go Cougs!!
