Rebounding-first forward with a blue-collar edge
In the 2005-06 season, Vernon Huger was Charleston Southern’s glass cleaner and efficiency piece, leading the team in rebounds per game (6.0), offensive rebounds per game (2.4), defensive rebounds per game (3.6), and field-goal percentage (.481). He also flashed one-game takeover potential, including a 17-rebound outing with 11 offensive boards in a Big South win. The tape and stat line point to a physical, high-motor frontcourt player who helps possessions end and restart — a useful fit if a team needs toughness, hustle, and interior consistency more than shot-creation.
