One of the best UC basketball-related articles from the Enquirer in years. Also much longer than you typically see these days from the Enquirer/Cincinnati.com:

A CBS Sports article has Nolley as the #8 transfer. Now I don't believe his impact has been big as Souley Boum (#9) but I'll take it.

^^There has been a couple of games where he did not show up at all.



He seems to shrink or disappear depending on how JD's playing. I have observed that when JD begins to take control of the scoring, which usually means he's going shoot as soon as he gets the ball, then it takes away all ball movement ergo, no passes to DDJ or to Nolley.

These three players in particular need to learn how to set each other up for high percentage shots, learn to play together. I'm not a statistician but I would venture a guess that JD's assists are the lowest out of all the normal starters. If these three could learn to play team bball there's no reason we couldn't have 5 or even 6 players in high double figures in scoring each ball game.

Davenport and Nolley are about equal on the apg line. The "winner" here is Lakhin

Generally you know what you have about this point in the season. We know DeJulius will find a way to score. Davenport is hit or miss depending on the game. Hard hitting analysis here but when Landers Nolley has a good game offensively, we generally win. The exception was the Arizona game where he scored in bunches and they were just better than we were.

Whatever became of him needing a class to graduate? Does this mean he completed that?

If you believe Chad Brendel over some rando nameless twitter account, there was never a problem to begin with here. Fabricated rumor by NC State people, who didn't land him in the portal.

Nolley's eligibility confirmed by UC... also confirmed that Abdul Ado will serve as a graduate assistant this season

I'm assuming he completed it. It was remote classes and he's in town for conditioning.
