Scanning the SoCon - Week Twelve

Each week, our SoCon bloggers/message boarders (one representing each team) will vote on Power Rankings, a Game of the Week, and Player of the Week. At least three will answer a series of questions on their team and things of interest around the SoCon.

Sum up your team. 
The Cats only played one game in week 11, and the same for week 12. Having 7 days between games is not good (for two straight weeks) unless the team has injuries, and needs time to recuperate. I think that the long periods between games may have hurt the Catamounts edge and offense coming into last week's Georgia Southern game, and Saturday's Samford game. Both games we close, with the Cats taking the win in the last minute of the game. This coming week, the Cats have three games, Monday, Thursday, Saturday. Who does this scheduling?

Who is the best point guard in the SoCon? 
In my opinion, it would be Trey Sumler.

Who is the most overrated coach in the SoCon? 
Again, in my opinion only, it's Elon's Matt Matheny. Not taking anything away from Matheny, he is a good coach, but I think that since he came out of the Davidson program, he gets too much comparison as the the second coming of Bob McKillop. I'm not unhappy that he's going to the CAA, I did say he's a good coach, and Elon spends lots of $$$$ on their basketball program.

Your team is down 2. Ten seconds left in the game. Do you shoot a two or a three? Who do you want to take the shot on your team and doing what? 
Trey Sumler, and which ever shot is open for him, the two or 3 pointer. Sumler thrives under this kind of pressure, and will usually make that kind of shot.
