    He should switch from game to game. Keep the opponent guessing.

    Hopefully the NCAA announcers will learn how to pronounce his name this year. :oops:

    How do you think it’s supposed to be pronounced? He doesn’t pronounce it “how”.

    So what you are saying once it's been extended, one day it can be pointed up and then on another day it may droop down?

    This arrangement seems all too familiar to me...unfortunately.

    I think he pronounces it like "how" with a "k" sound at the end. Not quite two syllables, but the "w" is kinda there.

    I know how he says it, and have posted a video of him actually saying it. Pretty sure I posted the video after theplayer proclaimed it’s pronounced “how”, but it may have been someone else.

    At the 5:30 mark against Auburn, Haugh took an inbound pass from Clayton under the Gator basket. Gathered & delivered an and-one. Thing is he got fouled four freakin' times before the refs called the foul. o_O

    That play reminded me of the play Brewer made vs Georgetown in the tourney

    A mix of Corey Brewer and Chandler Parsons is my observation. I don't think he has the same ceiling as Brewer, but is his ceiling higher than Parsons?

    his mustache is so light he'd have to curl it up to be able to see it's a mustache. I think only Larry Bird had a lighter mustache

    Every player in the country has things to work on. Tommy H does so many things well, it's hard to be critical, but ballhandling drills this summer are in order. He's good already at it but can get better, as he seems a bit hesitant. If he's going to get more minutes in the backcourt, he needs to be able to handle and slash with confidence. Same with his 3... he was good (34%) this season, but can get better. Getting a little bit stronger is in the cards too. He was stronger than he was as a freshman and it showed. Now take it a bit further.

    Parsons played a “point forward” role and was almost a floor general, which I assume is why scouts really loved him coming out.

    Haugh seems super skilled and intelligent on offense, maybe could even do that type of role. Only real issue is on D he’s a bit more of a tweener between a 4 and a 3. How does he compare defensively to Parsons? I know Brewer (Spiderman) could pretty much lock down 1-3 on D and that was a big selling point for him.

    True - both were huge impact plays. The Brewer bucket might have been the biggest of that championship run. Haugh is part pitbull and part gazelle; mostly the former, but he started to show signs of the latter in greater abundance this season. He's easily becoming an all-time fave and man crush of mine.
    Sidenote: Each year I pick a player for my wife who is her boy. It's a way of engaging my 5'0" Taiwanese Gator grad wife in the games, as she will casually watch here and there. One year it was Cheese. One year it was Nembhard. One year it was Tre Mann. This year is was Haugh.
