the first part you mentioned is the key... I severely underestimated Sweet Jared... it’s been so long since we’ve had an elite point guard that I forgot just how big of an advantage it is in the college game
we’ve had an advantage - sometimes huge - at the point guard position in every game we’ve played recently... you look at the numbers and Arkansas has a “better” backcourt, but Jared bedowngraded their guys... the Ole Miss kid hit a few shots early, but the freshman from Oak Hill was a fuggin disaster
Jared has been the best player on the team - and the best player on the court - most nights... it goes way beyond his points/assists... he controls everything on both ends... gets anywhere on the court he wants - gets the ball where we want, and more importantly, when we want... and whether it’s man to man or in the middle of our 1-3-1 keeps the other team from doing the same
if Davion continues to improve we’re gojng to have a massive advantage at the point for 40 minutes a night, every night... and that alone will win a lot of games
