You’d be forgiven if you had completely forgotten that Rico Gathers was still on this team, as there’s been hardly a word said about the fourth-year player until this week. According to Gathers, he’s finally “picking up on everything” now, although we’ve heard that from Gathers plenty of times before.
But with Kellen Moore taking over the offense and making some changes to how personnel is used, could Gathers actually be in line to benefit greatly and put it all together? There’s a few barriers in his way, but it does seem at least plausible.
