Did anybody catch the Shocker Report on Cox 22 before the ORU game? They showed highlights of the four previous games and HCGM made a comment after Fred took one to the hoop that "some say he cannot get to the rim" or words to that effect.

We knew FVV was one of the top PGs in the country. Fred had a solid game against both BYU and SLU when it counted. That's what separates Fred from a lot of the PGs. He knows when to do the right things at the right time.

Fred's not about Fred, Fred's about the team and getting W's.

Fred's not about Fred, Fred's about the team and getting W's.

I'll never forget when Fred was a senior and he was asked about his role on the team and he said something to the effect of, "If they need me to start I'll start. If they need me to come off the bench, I'll come off the bench. If they need me to hand out towels I'll do that."

I love that quote!

My favorite, however, is, "One of you is going to sit."

[another shocker]

the way he passed the ball in the second half against oru was special, in the way that word describes college basketball players. 'just really, really good. his assists consistently led to 3-foot wide open baskets. i like it when he concentrates on distributing the ball, and he's fast becoming one of the best point guards in the country (sorry doug gottlieb, but it is true)... as a sophomore.

Fred's not about Fred, Fred's about the team and getting W's.

And you can swap out "Fred" with "Baker" and "Cotton" and it still holds true.

Dang it's good to be a Shocker.

Good article. Well written and well deserved.

Let's sum this up and put this in perspective. We would not trade our backcourt for any other in the Country and they are only Sophs. Now throw in a twist of Cotton and we have a genuine trifecta for Christmas to the tune of 12-0 (soon to be 13) that just keeps on giving wins. You like?

FSF, you are absolutely correct. The backcourt we get to enjoy is definitely one of the top 5 if not best in the country. They have the potential to be the best got the next couple of seasons. The media will gall in love with these guys and the attention will only grow.

It's safe to say we will probably have a Baker's dozen 13-0 soon. Hopefully Ron is player of the game when it happens.

"It's embarrassing not to be a good shooter"... There's one DG can relate to!
