SignUp Now!NCCUknow said:Pretty unusual to win a contested position battle before day one of practice. I thinknit is pretty clear that he is healthier and improved and that Thornton has embraced his backup role ahead of time and more or less made that clear to Quinn and K. Very very good situation all around.

"The hardest part of coming back from an injury is getting there mentally,” Cook said. “I just battled with pains here and there, then I stopped believing in myself because I wasn’t playing. I was not feeling motivated to practice because I wasn’t confident in myself. I wasn’t in the best shape. My teammates never believed in me because they never played with me until the first day of practice.
“Just coming from high school to Duke basketball, this is a whole different level and you need months to prepare. By missing my whole spring and summer and not preparing was definitely a setback. That’s what’s motivated me this summer and last spring."

I think the coaching staff always knew that TT started at PG last year because Seth's transition didn't work out and Quinn wasn't healthy. I love TT's effort and heart but I believe he was recruited as a backup PG and only became the starting PG last year out of necessity.
