    Great opportunity for a gunner like him to open some eyes.

    He was a lights-out shooter his first three seasons, but cooled of his senior season. I don't think making him the focus of the offense helped him.

    Are you confusing him with Locke? Frazier only played 3 seasons and went pro after his junior year (think he bolted before White came in?). I don’t remember him ever being the focal point of the offense, but he was a damn good shooter if left open.

    Noah Locke bolted to Louisville supposedly to be the PG. So that’s why I was thinking you may have meant him being the “focal point”. He never had that role here, but I believe that was the intent at Louisville, unfortunately it doesn’t seem that worked out as Louisville stunk and most his numbers were down from his prior years at FL.

    Locke is at Providence for his final season. He will be playing for a really good coach there will be no excuses about bad coaching. It will be interesting to see how he does.

    Ah, okay. I just looked it up. He played 3 seasons at UF. His freshman 3 point shooting was 47%. As a junior it was 38%.
