Is Happ finally a senior?

[knight82]

Seems like he's been there forever

Thought about that today. Feels like he’s on the 10-year plan. Graduate already!

I remember when Bo Ryan got the job at Wisconsin and Happ was his first recruit......

Senior citizen?

He doesn't scare me that much and I liked our approach of single coverage. I think that's the way to go. He hurt us when he was able to dig in deep and post up close to the rim. Needed to do better denying position, which is a tall order, because Happ is excellent at establishing position. Also need to put more pressure on the perimeter, making the entry pass difficult. Lastly, our bigs needed to foul and put him on the line when he did get good position and was shooting from close. The problem with that was our bigs didn't use their fouls wisely from early in the game. They should have been saving their fouls for Happ when he would likely score. Not easy, but doable.

Yes, he is finally a senior. I don't know how good he will be in the NBA but he does move well near the basket.

He will be crap in the NBA.

NBA isn't interested in him. If they were he wouldn't be back this year.

It's weird that he has no jumper and is such a bad free throw shooter. He's coordinated enough with the ball in his hands that it sometimes looks like he's running the break.

Sure they should have done better. But then again happ does that to everyone. I missed the second half but the first half we did an excellent job. He is one of the best offensive post players in the country.

If we duplicated the first half effort, we likely win. Not easy do to for 40 minutes though.

Agree with the above posters. Happ not NBA material. NBA bigs would eat him alive on both ends.
