I’ve got to say, I haven’t seen an improvement in our program’s history like Holman’s. i feel like his court vision doesn’t get near the love it deserves.

Holman is our best player. He is definitely the most well rounded player. Reminds me of s European big guy. Rebounds, goes to the rim strong, and can shoot it well from anywhere on the court

I love when Holman finds himself with the ball directly under the basket, and he pivots and goes up strong for a dunk. Not sure we've ever had anyone quite that crafty in that specific situation.

Sure would be nice to get on a run. Hopefully we can stay healthy.

His improvement has been very impressive in a year. Just wish Ado and KT could have at least improved half of what he has........

Cameron Burns... had some mad hops under the basket. Dunk machine if he got his hands on the rebound underneath.

Good post. I feel like he took the big jump last year and has continued it this year. I must admit that his first two years I thought he was too soft to ever be a starter on a good team, but he kept working and has become our most consistent and best all around player. Glad he proved me wrong.

It won’t be the end of the world if we don’t... but a 5-1 (and 3-0) start to SEC play would be very nice.

With Perry emerging as someone who should potentially start over Ado... I’m not sure we have a definitive weakness. Should be a very fun 3 months watching these guys.

If we keep hitting 3's this team will be tough to beat.

Coach Howland finally has a team jelling..

We have looked pretty good at times. We still get lazy on offense for periods of time.

As for Holman he is crafty around the basket. We have not a had a full package like him in a while. Chuck Rhodes was probably the last guy like that we had.

Miss me some Rhodes. Are you forgetting about The Renardo Sidney Show..

When Holman is on, it would be hard to argue, but I think a lot of fans really undervalue Q's contributions simply because Q has been so effective for so long. Whereas Aric tends follow up hot stretches with disappearing acts at times, Q has shown up almost every night since the day he put on an MSU uniform, and it cannot be understated as to how badly we're going to miss him when he's gone.

It's been fun watching both of these guys grow, and I hope they get a shot in the big times. With a little more development, I think both could make positive contributions to an NBA squad
