The 91-57 blowout over UT-Martin Friday night may not be the best gauge to measure how the season will go, but there were certainly some solid performances across the board that should be encouraging for fans moving forward this season. None more encouraging than newcomer and graduate transfer forward Chris Olivier.
The Cowboys desperately need someone who can provide a scoring option down low after losing the production of Le’Bryan Nash, and Olivier showed last night he can be a spark in the post. He went for 14 points on 7-of-8 shooting, and 5 rebounds in just 18 minutes on the court.
