I don't see how relying on Huggins own comments is hiding behind his skirt. If he was some coach known for coach speak and cliche, perhaps, but that's simply not the case.
Stewart has plenty of intangibles. His assist numbers do need to be better, but he's doing what is asked of him. He prepares better than any player on this team and knows what to expect of any opponent. He is asked to bring the ball up the floor and initiate the offense far more than any other player, and he doesn't have a ton of TOs doing so. He is hitting shots, and even better he's attacking and getting the foul line. He's playing with confidence and his teammates and coaches trust him. Some of those things don't show up in the numbers, but if you've watched K-State basketball for any amount of time its something we haven't had since Larry Reid. Reid was a much better player, but Stewart has stepped up to the challenge and showing to be a capable Big 12 PG.
I have a feeling if anyone suggested to Huggins his team was winning in spite of Clent Stewart he would call them an idiot. That's a rediculous statement.
