Blaine Taylor on Cooper: "People have to keep in mind that Cooper did not play his senior year in high school, and has been a part of a very talented group of front line players. His ability to increase our presence defensively, on the glass and in the paint, is an integral ingredient to not only our season, but him becoming the player now in the future that we have anticipated."
