Every Monday (approx.) we will update the Big Man Power Ranking, heavily influenced by the play of the forwards and centers in the prior week’s games.
Larrier (AP)
1Terry Larrier [Last Week: 1]
Larrier had a relatively quiet week following his 27-point showing against Colgate. Still, he’s the only of the big guys on this list to score in double-figures in every game this year.

Onuorah (AP)
2Dave Onuorah [8]
Large Dave has arrived y’all! He only attempted one shot in his first two games (he made it at least), but played good defensive, was great on the glass and energized UConn’s pick-and-roll offense.

Polley (Stephen Slade)

Polley didn’t do a whole lot in the box score this week but has (at least temporarily) locked down a spot in the starting lineup. He did have two Kobe assists (to himself!) against BU.

Carlton continues to show flashes of talent that make him both intriguing and kinda frustrating. Like almost everyone on this list, he’s still developing. His four blocks against BU were a nice treat.

Diarra (A Dime Back)

Diarra still isn’t getting a whole lot of minutes. Part of that is his own fault. He committed two fouls in about eight seconds against BU. Once back in the game he did have a nice dunk.

Whaley’s rough week can be (at least partially) attributed to an impacted wisdom tooth. He didn’t score or grab a rebound in limited minutes this week.

Williams
8Kwintin Williams [7]
Kwint continues to occupy the last spot on UConn’s depth chart. After sitting out the Stony Brook game, he did make the most of his four minutes against BU, playing with a lot of energy and scoring his lone field goal after an impressive offensive rebound.

There are a few ways to interpret this. Is that the best players who averaged less than 10 points over their careers? The best...
