It's just not that hard to figure out.

The Leonard kid from Illinois has the potential to be really good. Seems real immature though.

Leonard hasn't quite grasped some aspects of the offense, or at least his role. In a win at Maryland this week, Weber was trying to set up situations toward the end of the game to get the ball in his center's hands.
Leonard kept leaving the post. Weber finally asked him: "Why do you think we ran that play? I said, 'To get you the ball.' "
"I have to do things on the offense end, and I'm comfortable doing that,'' Leonard said. "A couple of times this year I kicked the ball out to Sam (Maniscalco) or found other guys. I'm a fairly good passer so I'm able to find people. But I've come to realize I have to be a focal point of the offense and really control the game and control the paint."

Dayton beat Bama. Xavier beat Butler in Indy. The A10 is looking pretty good.
