Has not shown any signs of improvement and extremely low basketball iq, Moreno should be starting over him going forward.
Lowe has to be our best player, oweh just looks so nonchalant out there. I don’t understand why we aren’t attacking the rim with all the switching they’re doing.

as frustrating as Amari could be, we were always better with him on the court by far
****….Amari was ALWAYS way better than Garrison! BG would be very lucky to start for eastern Ky if we’re being honest but Pope has this inexplicable love for this kid?? I’m sure he’s a great guy but he absolutely sucks at basketball

Sure he’s a great guy? lol - he’s an embarrassment. Oklahoma game ringing any bells?

Ironically he's a 5 star HS recruit. But clearly overrated and not an elite talent.

Moreno has shown he belongs on the court since the exhibitions -- we need real talent on this team in order to reach any serious goals, and Moreno should get as many reps as possible to facilitate development.

It's early (3 games), but Moreno 13.1 rebounds per30min; Garrison 7.0 rebounds per30min.
Last year Garrison was 6.7 rebounds per30min.

He was not five star, ranked around 40 I think, High 4 star

BG is a 4 size wise, trying to be a 5, because he doesn’t have the skill set to be a 4, but he also doesn’t have the skill set to be a 5, so…

And we gave Calipari heck for being “players first” to a fault… Pope says, “Hold my beer!”😩

BG will have several games this year where he'll look all world, and we'll go oh yeah that's why he's on the team. But for the rest of the season we'll be scratching our head wondering why we didn't play Moreno or Jelavic more.

Yeah, Garrison is about the same as last year. But, we did not know Moreno could actually compete at this level. With JQ out for the beginning of the season we needed BG to fill that hole. To my surprise, Moreno has been better early this season.

What games was he all world last year?

- He scored 15 pts twice was his high water marks.
- He blocked 20 shots over 35 games for the entire year....which is pathetic even if only 18 mpg
- He grabbed 9 rebounds once was his high water mark
- He can run into a few 3pter every now and then...but even at that shot 30% from 3pt land last year

I never liked his game time last year adn was begging for Amari to get his breath and get back on the floor. And so far this year, it's like let's hope Quantenance gets back in January so we can let Moreno back him up and cut Garrison from rotation.

#1 goal tonight is to keep Brandon Garrison happy. Winch when he gets lost on D for the 7th time but keep this man happy at all times.
