Not to be lost in the frustration, Kolek is the best outlet/over the top passer I can remember watching at Mason already. Did he play quarterback or something?
Goodbye Tyler Kolek
- Thread starter dr. gunnie
- Start date
11 games into his Mason career Tyler is averaging 10.7 points per game on 42.3% shooting and 35.1% from 3. He has 24 assists to 16 TO's. He is 2nd on the team with 16 steals and is pulling down 3.1 rebounds per contest.
It is going to be fun to watch Tyler grow as a player. Against NSU, UMass, Dayton, and vcu he really had his coming out party. He averaged 16.8 points, 2.75 reb, 2.25 assists, and 2 TO per game. Coaches in the A10 aren't stupid so I expected them to adjust to him and plan for him which they have. The last two games have seen his scoring drop to 6 points per game. But, the kid is patient and lets the game come to him which is rare for a freshman. The future is incredibly bright for this young man. He really understand the game. I hope he is ready to step up even more knowing that he is now a point of focus.

Transfer. Get out while the getting is good. Go to UVA and win. Pains me to say so but we are not going to win while DP is coach.

"FAIRFAX, Va. – George Mason University men's basketball freshman guard Tyler Kolek has been named the A-10 Rookie of the Week for the second time this season, the league announced Monday.
Kolek put together a strong all-around effort in Wednesday's 77-45 triumph over Fordham. The Cumberland, R.I., product tallied 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting (3-6 3pt FG) to go along with four rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block. It marked his seventh 10+ point effort in A-10 play this season.
Kolek leads the A-10 in scoring and 3pt FG made per game amongst freshmen this season (11.1 ppg). He paces the Patriots in assists (39) and is second in steals (24). His 43 3pt FG made this season ranks t-7th most in Mason single season freshman history, despite playing just 17 games so far this season."
Trivia question: Who holds Mason's record for most 3-pt. FG's made in a season by a freshman?
