I swear he wasn’t considered because he’d built a winner using transfers before the portal was a thing. Cohens wisdom and foresight decided that was too seedy an underbelly for her jalopy of a program and hired a career assistant. Now her shitty MBB program tears down and rebuilds itself through transfers on the yearly. Well done Jen.
This kid is a true PG. He averaged14 pts. 7.4 assists as a sophomore at Georgia and 10 pts. 6.9 asst. as a junior at Kentucky. He averages almost as many assists per game as UW did as a team. Hurt most of last year. He’s a short term answer for Menifield. Not as explosive but certainly more steady. If your scoring options are: 1. Brooks 2. Wheeler 3. Johnson 4. Moses 5. Williams That’s not too bad and a general upgrade over last years roster. Add in Meah, Kepnang and Yates and this is a fairly talented group of guys. When a healthy Noah Williams is your fifth or maybe your sixth best scoring option that’s alright. Id still like to see one more big. A PF that has muscle and attitude. The team is relatively experienced which usually bodes well for success. Brooks, Wheeler, Williams and Kepnang all in their fifth seasons, Meah, Holland and Moses in their fourth. Johnson in his second and Yates as a true Frosh. I’m sure Hopkins will fuck it all up though. The new offense will look like the old one and will be unwatchable. Plus they will still play 85% zone but a homer can hope. Life is better when UW basketball is top four in the P12. My breath won’t be held but fingers are definitely crossed. I’m more hopeful now than I was two weeks ago.

Cohen is a fucking disaster.
Edit: had no clue he played for UW this year. Shows how much I think and care about UW hoops. I couldn't name one kid on the roster.
1. Brooks
2. Wheeler
3. Johnson
4. Moses
5. Williams
