I'm gonna keep saying it - His positioning is incredible! I love to just watch him instead of the ball at times.

- He comes off his man then back on in such a crafty way.
- He can do so much with a half second on defense to alter all kinds of opponents and plays that are technically not his assignment.
- The amount of work he does to position while the ball is in the air doesn't even seem possible.
- He must've gotten straight A's in Geometry because he judges the bounces and ricochets as good as you can expect.
- He follows his shots not just to do it but does it so well, because...you guessed it, positioning.
- He moves to open space to create an open look for himself.
- He moves to open space to create an open drive for his teammates.
- He executes screens so frequently and sneakily.
- How can someone not particularly fast be like Speedy Gonzalez with his positioning? You swear you just saw him set a pick at the top of the key, you blink, and then he is under the hoop scoring.
- Despite all this tremendous positioning and aggressive level of movement, he rarely gets called for blocks or other dumb fouls. His fouls are more productive and of the attempted shot block variety.

Not only will Jason Carter be a joy of a player for us, but I hope he will also model a style of play that will be passed on and spread throughout the future of our program for years.

Some of the post moves he shows are not even close to a freshman level. There are a bunch of seniors all over D1 that do not have the same set of post moves he has at such a young age.

Agree to all of the above! Already excited to renew my season tickets for the next 3 years!

Should have quite a front court next year with 2 freshman coming in to add to what Carter and Taylor give us.

Thank God he played in the Licking County League in high school, otherwise he would have been recruited by some powerhouses. Back in my coaching days, I can remember hearing that certain big time schools would rarely if ever recruit outside a major urban center. Those that did would tell us that they were grateful for the oversight of the others. I keep thinking that's probably the main reason we have Jason and he's not in the Big Ten etc. Just imagining his potential must give Coach Phillips a happy feeling on a down and out day!

Jason Carter isn't good enough to play big man at this level. - some on this board.

Biggest improvement to me is defensively. Hands straight up and staying out of foul trouble. The kid is a joy to watch and always finds a way to get a loose ball. #intangibles

TV had a few closeups tonight of Carter and Stevie Taylor standing side-by-side. Looked to me like a man standing next to a boy still in high school. But Carter more than held his own against the more experienced Taylor, taking advantage of his quickness, soft hands and excellent foot work. And while the man played his final MAC game tonight, Ohio fans get three more years after this season from Carter.

I was thinking the same thing watching the press conference with Kenny last week. When he talks he sounds older but when he wasn't talking his body language and facial expressions reminded me of a 15 year old kid. Now on the basketball court...

+1 me too

I told my wife after the first few games this season that by his senior year Carter would be an All-American. I stand by my remarks! ;-)

Hahahaaaa. The results sorta speak for themselves. Andrew Ruck nailed it with his analysis of how solid Jason's game is.

Play that impressed me the most: Towards the end of game he came out high to apply pressure on a drive. Shooter pulled up for jumper YET Carter still got back down low and boxed out Taylor for the rebound. Great combination of hustle, basketball IQ and physical talent.

How about the play at the end of the first half? Everyone standing around waiting to see what Jaaron's gonna do, his shot misses and Jason is the only one hustling to get the rebound and stick back. That showed me what kind of guy he is.

I think that's the play that fueled the comeback. Absolutely huge. Saul needs to put together footage of what both he and Gavin Block do away from the ball and show it to the rest of the team and run it over and over and over.

His best defensive "help" move didnt even get called. He stepped in and took a perfect charge on Toledo's last drive to the basket and the ref "swallowed his whistle" and he did not have the balls to make the obvious call. Had that ball gone in, I would hope that I wasnt the only person to notice this blown call. The driver ran right over Jason and there was no call ! The ref choked and it could have cost us the win !

I was just happy they didn't call it a block. Love the view of that play that Ted posted from behind the basket. Kenny's shot goes in and nobody celebrates. They all busted their tails to get back on defense.

Once he develops his three point shot he will be deadly. The form isn't bad, his shot is just a little flat right now. I am confident he can get it fixed by next year. Isn't that why we keep Tommy Freeman around?

Your observations are clearly correct here. This is one thing that drives me crazy about college basketball officiating. The tendency to call things differently in the final minutes of a game. If it's a charge in the first minute of play it's a charge in the last 10 seconds of play. If it's foul in the first minute, it's a foul in the last 30 seconds, etc. Be consistent.

It's so hard to change your shot, especially during a season. Even if it's the tiniest tweak in the motion, it takes a lot of repetition to get that muscle memory down. Hopefully we'll see some significant change like we did Mike Laster this offseason.

Improved jump shots + a little weight room work are all that could be between Carter & Culver, and big strides in their respective games. The coaches did a nice job finding Carter. It's fun to have the fun back in watching this program!
