While Morris clearly needs to improve on both fouling and free throw shooting, it is worth remembering that he did shoot .613 from the field last year, nearly .100 better than our next best player (who, btw, was Poor Bear). Jaime shot .487 from the field last year. Even account for the fact that Jaime attempted 3s (poorly) while Morris did not, Jaime still shot .517 from 2 point range.
On a per 40 minutes basis, Jaime averaged 19.3 pts and 12.1 rbs. Morris averaged 16.4 pts and 10.6 rbds. His ability to stay on the floor to achieve those numbers will clearly be the telling issue, but he was absolutely a productive post player in the minutes he played and I'm always going to assume that bigs will take more time to develop and have a chance to be much better as upperclassmen than as underclassmen.
