State- BC

[Marty Da Hungry Wolf]

Once again State plays fairly well and has a decent lead at the half.

Once again State relaxes and the opponents kills the decent halftime lead fairly well with ease.

Once again T.J. Warren puts State on his back and carries them to a win.

The consistent negative is State doesn't have other players who are CONSISTENTLY a threat outside of Warren.

Love having a great player on the team, wouldn't give him up for anything in the world, but he can't continue to be the only threat. He can't go 40 (or more?) minutes per game and get 30 and 10 per game for the next 10 games. Guys, give him some help - please.

I'd love to have TJ Warren on my team. He's awesome. I'm afraid he'll be gone to the NBA after this season, though.

I'm afraid you're right, Tiz. Until there's an announcement, I'll continue to hope. I really like how State's team would look next season with Warren, I don't think the ground will open up and swallow them if he does go pro, but I'd sure (selfishly, I admit) like to see him come back for one more season. Double-edged sword, though: if he goes all T.J. Warren on everybody over the next couple of weeks and leads State to a decent run this postseason, he's most assuredly gone. Better to have this problem, though, than not to.
