I thought Booker played some good D Friday night. I'm anticipating that he will improve on the offensive end as the season goes along. Might take a few games for these guys to gel, but the talent level is definitely there for at least the top eight or nine. I'd like to see some more passing though.

I think Fred and the staff really emphasized to Book how vital a post defender is to this team's success. I think Booker will be very solid this year. He probably won't put up a ton of stats (except rebounds hopefully), but he will be very important.
Hoiberg understands the game of basketball extremely well, and does a much better job explaining concepts to his players than most coaches (especially the previous ISU coach). Just look at the astronomical growth in DG's and Thug Life's b-ball IQ in limited time under Fred.
