Exactly. Two of the best defensive teams in the country. As a freshman. That's being thrown into the deep end. Nobody had a great stat line last night. But we won the game.
Tyrese Hunter Appreciation Thread
- Thread starter cyfan92
- Start date
I think Tyrese is used to being able to finish over people, and that's a bit harder to do in Big 12 play. He's going to have to adjust and I trust he will.
I trust he will to. He was able to work through some early struggles in the Baylor game and had a solid 2 half. If he would have hit a couple of early floaters vs TT the narrative of his game would have been different. Tyrese is a worker and will identify and act on the issues and as he gets comfortable with B12 play will improve. I fully expect good games from him the next time he plays Baylor an Tech.

After playing 30 minutes/game as a freshman in the B12 he's going to come into next November and just dominate SWAC guards.
You unintentionally touched on a main point actually. Monte competing against Kane and learning from an experienced player like Kane really helped Monte. Tyrese is really the only real point guard on this team and I question if he has that role model to learn from and more importantly push him to the limit in practice like Kane did Monte.
Complete floor General game from our 18 year old pg
Already do.
Anyone know if he's crazy good at poker/cards?
Same expression no matter the situation.
13 points on 6 attempts is exactly what we need from Tyrese. He has the ability to live at the free throw line!
8 assists and 2 TO's on a top 10 defense is not normal for freshman.. Watch out of he ever gets a 3 point jump shot!

Way more talented ball handler than Blaylock. Way more intense defender as well.
There were about 8 passes he made today that were so good it made you shake your head in disbelief. It was honestly one of the most well played games I've seen at Hilton at the point guard position. The poise of a senior year Monte Morris.
"way more talented ball handler" is a stretch. Blalock had a tight handle but often got caught trying to do too much. Tyrese is more solid. And agreed, a better defender. Hunter is legitimately one of the best defenders in the Big 12 right now, which is crazy to say for a freshman.
He's definitely found something @ Oklahoma! 70% shooting from 2 over the last 3 and 11 steals. He's going to be such a recruitment tool in the transfer portol this summer
