Craig Forth

[Dane Pound]

Brian (No rivalry) Ettkin has a column in today's TU on Craig Forth. Mostly on fans perception that Forth's not aggressive enough on the court.

Let's hope Etkin keeps writing about others - because he really doesn't write much positive stuff.

Does Ettkin even know where the UAlbany campus is located???? New rule, you can't write a story if you don't make an appearance!!!

You are right, no one seems to care much. They should, a very....very young team right now. Down only by 5 at half to pitt, down by what ?? just a few point in each game at half time, so far this year. Yea I know, it's a whole game not just a half. But that's my point. Young teams react this way. The fact is that even in the blow out games, they were always close at the half . Great things to come...

I bet Zollner is as good as Forth! Probably better!

Zoellner will be better - especially relative to the America East. Just being 4 or 5 inches taller and 30 pounds heavier than his opponents will make him a better player. He can just stand there with his hands extended and force the other players to alter their shots.

Zoellner's physical presence will make him an impact player - but from what I hear he's alot more than a 7'1" kid who can stand in the middle and alter shots. I hear he can do some nice things offensively around the basket.

 

Like all seven footers when he's playing well people will say it's because he's 7' and it's expected but when he struggles people will be quick to criticize and poke fun.

 

I expect him to have some ups and downs but be a Major Impact Player for the Danes for two years. We will finally be solid in the middle and have some depth behind or along side Zoellner.
