Many on this board were saying Love couldn't move last year. He looks better this year but still not what I saw as a prospect. Was never a crazy explosive run/jump athlete but had a nice combination of strength and quickness. Could play D. His lateral movement on D is still off but more hopeful that he can come back. Looks much better on the offensive end early.

From what I know, Jon's injury was much more involved so any expectation to get back to 100% probably wasn't possible. Love was young and had a cleaner tear which guys can usually come back 100% from with current techniques they use in surgery/rehab.

They never thought the stretch from Auburn was going to knock down 3 after 3. Threw off the D since he never showed that before.
