I do not see Jet in Bradley, but I do see a significant 5 Star McDonald's All American talent that is hindered by Tommy not understanding how to use his ability.
Think having JB and Bos on the floor might actually be one of the best lineups. I am not sure JB will avg 15 a game but he has so many intangibles and is a good floor general. Bos is just a better scoring weapon. This team has too many good weapons they can't resort to Caleb Love hero ball.
Yeah, I don't see much of JT in Bradley, but JB plays a significant role on this years team. He's a steady ball handler and is good on defense. His role offensively should be to score when he needs to and perhaps have some breakout games such as against ASU in Tucson. I think having a better scoring guard to compliment him would be a good combination.

If anything, Caleb Love is the JET Terry, but he doesn't come off the bench.
So in reality Boswell is the JET on this team. He should be coming off the bench as a scoring sparkplug. Bradley is not the guy who we need to rely on for taking 10 shots per game, but it is the active hands on defense and better passing ability than Boswell that makes him a better option to start beside Caleb Love. Bradley's willingness to play inside the arc and get to the FT Line is why he should start games. Drawing fouls is a requirement to be a starter in a Run and Gun system IMHO.
Boswell should be the 6th man, sparkplug off the bench. Come in, outplay an opponent's 2nd unit Guard rather than get shut down and outplayed by a starting guard 90% of the time. Especially since most of these starters around the country are older, smarter, and better at basketball 1 on 1.
Tommy is not using Boswell correctly and having 1 good game every 10-12 games proves it. Kerr Kriisa used to have a 7-9 type of game once in the bluest of moons too yet he still was 1-8 Kerr almost all the time.

I don't like how the team operates when they play together. I don't care if we had a mediocre game vs ASU last night. Without Caleb Love hitting 2 Major 3's down the stretch when ASU was pushing to get within 5-6pts or so we probably would have lost the game. In Madness, when Caleb misses those 2 momentum killing 3's vs an opponent making a push we will probably end up losing. So my message to Caleb is "Don't Miss".
Boswell should be the JET Terry coming off the bench as the sparkplug.
