I was looking at our roster and came to Burris’s name. I remember seeing his highlights at Idaho, which are pretty darned good for a freshman and saw that he was freshman of the year in the Big Sky. His numbers were very good. With that said, I wondered why he didn’t play this past year. Of course Great had a lot to do with that. I wonder, though if Nigel has what it takes to play and contribute. He moves pretty well, and like I say has good numbers. I hope he gets a chance.

He is gone per 22

He was a 3 and D guy and couldn’t do either at the MW level.

Is a lot of that due to how Sprinkle reportedly treated his players, probably.

Was there also a lack of MW talent in him, probably.

I thought 22 said it was just a confidence thing? I thought the implication was that Burris had the ability.

Burris definitely struggled with his confidence.

Wasn't there some talk early that his defense left a lot to be desired?

Burris definitely struggled with his confidence.

He didn't seem to lack confidence in the Purdue game. He managed to chuck it up every time he touched the ball. A couple of them even hit the rim. He was brimming with confidence.

I exaggerate, of course. But Burris and Templin were a combined 0-6, I believe.
