Does anyone think we see last year's version of Garcia at some point? His rebounding numbers are half of what they were and he doesn't seem as intuitive under the basket. He's taking more threes but making the same and not getting to the line because he isn't as involved.

I know Payne's offense is definitely a positive trade off, but man it'd be great to see old Andy out there.

I think he's being played against differently. Nobody wants to get beat by the Dominican Rodman. It hasn't slowed down our OReb% so not really hurting. Focus on Andy and Zhu beats you. Profit.

This, and also, he just doesn't have to do as much rebounding since we brought in Payne and since Zhu and Solo rebound so well too

He's in love. It's undefeated

At the end of the day, its a team game. We're still #1 in the country in offensive rebound rate, so regardless of the underlying cause, teammates are still getting those boards.

I assumed it was the hair

Maybe both? Could be a basketball lite version of the Samson/Delilah thing

He's getting bumped around and blocked out a lot more this year

He and Coleman have become non factors. Neither has produced much on the court this year.

Payne is playing center. Andy played center last year and now is on the perimeter more. That's the biggest difference, and I don't think anyone here wants Payne to play less
