Primarily a collection of news links about all 11 Horizon League teams on a daily basis, culled from online newspapers, school athletic websites, the conference website, and school newspapers, plus some other content from time to time.
First off the bench, I need a pure bucket-getter who won't play outside of
our offensive structure. There are only three players in the country with at
least a 55% effective field goal percentage on dribble jumpers and a 2:1
assist to turnover ratio: Bennett Stirtz, Christian Anderson, and Cooper.
And you can only get one of those guys at a bargain!
Unbelievably, Cooper is doing this as a unranked freshman with the
fourth-highest shot percentage in the Horizon League. Cooper is always in
control with the ball in his hands, and has fantastic touch from all three
levels.

Power conference athleticism hasn't bothered him either. Cooper is 8-of-10
from inside the arc against Cal and Butler this season, with seven assists to
four turnovers. Cooper is a bucket who doesn't make many mistakes, and one can
only imagine how good he'll be with more college experience under his belt.
Cooper's defense leaves a lot to be desired right now, but as a spark plug off
the bench, that's more of a nitpick.
