Randal Falker, not in the Portsmouth Invit.?

Has not shown his stripes?  C'mon!  What games have you been watching?  The guy is an undersized post player who gets by on athleticism and a ton of heart.  And there is no doubt he should be among the top 64 seniors.  I guarantee you he will get a longer look by the NBA than many of those players who were invited. 

Maybe he didn't have the senior season many of us were hoping for, but much of that had to do with the lack of a good supporting cast.  How many games was Falker double and triple teamed because the opponents had no fear of Tyrone Green and the Salukis horrible outside shooting?  Where was the one dimensional and often erratic Joshua Bone when Falker was being triple teamed?  When is that bonehead Clemmons going to step up and become the player Lowry keeps saying he can be?  It didn't happen this year ('cept against Western Kentucky).  Let's also consider that Matt Shaw had some really horrible shooting games and Mullins oftentimes seemed to forget that his team needed him to step up and become more a more offensive oriented player.

Overall, it was a disappointing season.  But Falker is the one player that I have no beef with.  And I for one believe he was snubbed and am truly going to miss watching this guy play.
