Actually, senior John Turek has shown that someone has worked with him at 
some point in his career here.  His first year plus, Turek's percentage was in 
the 30s.  At some point, if I recall it was at the beginning of last year, he 
started showing the results of his work.  He'll never be confused with Rick 
Barry or Jack Moore, as Bapi said (Jack Moore would be a nice thread topic here 
...), but Turek IS noticeably improved.  He went five-for-five in last night's 
game.  

John thus far hasn't shown the same improvement in his ability to 'finish' 
around the basket.  He HAS graduated already.  Great job, John.  I personally 
would like to see Turek get more time on the floor at the same time as freshman 
Maric.
