Cohn's defense was terrible and it is obvious that he's not trying as hard as he should. I said the same thing about Prewitt his freshman year. Cohn is fast and athletic enough to play defense. Now it is just desire.

My wild card is Tot. He seems to have the size, speed, and toughness to play on both ends. Not a scorer, but I love him on defense at his size.

I can now see the dilemma at PG. Schlotman has improved his confidence and was excellent protecting the ball and running the offense. His defensive effort is also impressive. Unfortunately, he did not look to score or drive except for one time late, which resulted in a questionable charge call. Cohn obviously brings a speed and quickness aspect that is unique to the team and he is much more of an offensive threat. He obviously needs to pick his spots to be aggressive better than he did last night. His defense also lags Schlotman, though I think he gives decent effort. The same can be said for Burchfield, love to have his shooting on the floor, but he presents a defensive liability. Be interesting to see how this PG situation evolves over the year.

Tot is a slasher on offense, rather than a shooter. He'll be able to slash and kick, hopefully, with his size giving him unique passing angles. I'm not sure how he'll do as a straight dribble defender, but again he might be able to use his size to make things difficult for quicker guards. Really, though, it's unlikely we'd have anyone but Dixon on the opponent's best offensive guard.
