I was talking to a friend last night on it. I wish I saw Samuel do more of this last year. But Willard couldn't figure out and wasn't able to help Samuel play this well.

Sha has

Awesome to see finally

I think he will get better too as the season progresses.

Felt like Sha waited too long to get him back in the game at the end. He was sitting for a long stretch. He was the difference maker.

He's getting better with the rotations. You're right though Samuel needs to be on the court most of the game

He was missed vs Iowa in the 2nd half. I don’t know why he sat so much with only 3 fouls in that game.

Samuel has really developed into an all-around player. Carino's points about the rebounds and FT's down the stretch to give us a chance are spot on.

It started last year when he did take a step forward in important ways - notably in the paint. He had some big games in big wins. But he was always playing alongside Obiagu, Yetna, and we ran an offense that didn't move the ball for him. He's become a focal point now. Feed him.

Samuel and Richmond both sat too long in the 2nd half and Odukale played way too much. Rotations and subbing are definitely a work in progress.

Hopefully,this is a boost to Samuels confidence which will continue during the season.He has the potential to be a 15 point,12 rebound kind of player when he plays 25+ minutes per game.

Richmond was not having a good game. It probably was good that he sat as long as he did. I hope he plays better tonight. He needs to fine tune his passing, among other needed adjustments.
