I don't think we have a thread dedicated Mitch. He seems to take a lot of heat here for his defense.

The last few games he's been killin it. Boards, D, garbage clean up. Just need to quit jacking up 3's.

Seriously, I'm rooting hard for this guy. He's put in the work and it's starting to pay off.

He made treys his frosh and soph years. Don't know why he can't this year. Of course he's only shot 5?

Dude just has fun playing too. Always smiling, but is secretly an assassin out there on the boards.

Nice reminder that he had more blocks per 40 than Mo Bamba did last year for Texas.

His haircut is stupid but I like his effort.

Added a bunch of muscle this year. Muscle memory rendered useless.

The Kenny Gregory then.

I’ve been hard on Mitch this year. Glad he played well. We fed off his energy.

He was a bit out of control tonight and missed a key free throw. But he left it ALL on that dead reptile floor.

Closer to Perry Ellis

Last year I was quick to point out that his block rate was misleading because so much of it came from him recovering from the weak side and getting blocks on another a teammate's man.

But, hot damn, that guy has stood up a bunch of players face to face the past week or so. I'm starting to like his spark. He cares.

What about the weird, not quite human, guttural noise he makes on putback dunks?

Personally, I love it.

He plays with intensity and passion. It may not always be pretty, but he has no qualms with putting his life on the line for plays during a game. You have to love that.

He's always brought showy hustle, but lately he's doing the less-noticeable hustling, like moving to box out and go after the ball on the defensive glass. The lack of that was always my gripe with Mitch, and now he's bringing it.

Mitch has been playing his ass off and making the most of what hes got. Props to Mitch

Thank goodness we have Mitch and good for him.
Coach has been bitching and yanking him all season. Fun to see him getting minutes now,

saw him and the walk-ons grabbing chipotle for lunch

nothing wrong with it, but not surprised that’s who he hangs with on the team

I’m trying to understand that comment.
