Coach Mike says: "Colby can play anything from the 2 to the 5 for us. If he can consistently be the guy who played at Oklahoma State and Louisville, it would be an amazing boost for us. We have to keep him involved in the offensive end because he really focuses on defense. He's the guy who can lock down on the opponents' best player and be a stopper for us. His length and his intensity are tremendous assets."
