Yeah, definitely more of a role player.He's rough but he might grab a few minutes when he's a senior.
My pants fit funny after watching that. Love the athleticism, but really liked seeing a few actual post moves, as well as the ability to handle the ball. Caught a little baby hook in there as well. And all of that appeared to be against decent competition with defenders his size. Can't wait to watch him develop.
Just a cook, not a chef.
Just for fun. What are we getting with Cook? I'm impressed with his athleticism. But, to me he fits into a very common mold of the traditional big bodied power forward who can dunk in traffic.
Deyonte Davis at Michigan State. Carter and Dodd at Maryland.
Yes, I'm delighted to have Cook at Iowa. Just asking, what are we getting?
Yep. He's not a one & done, but I do believe he'll make an immediate impact, just not what some people are expecting.That's kinda what I'm getting at, if you know what I mean. I hope people don't expect 20 points a night out of him. His game is going to be the usual inside the paint banger type and yeah we can use it. And maybe he will develop some more. Right now, I think his passing is ahead of other aspects.
Anyway, I just hope we don't hear a bunch of, "Get the ball to Cook!" stuff. Every player plays a role...they aren't all the leading scorer.
