Old Dominion’s glass-eating, double-double engine
In the 2011-12 season, Old Dominion forward Chris Cooper was a force on the glass, averaging 10.5 points and 10.1 rebounds per game and ranking 20th nationally in rebounding and 13th in double-doubles. He was more than a stat line: reports from that season highlight his physical edge, knack for timely put-backs, and high-motor presence, plus real defensive utility with seven blocks and six steals in one week. If your team wants toughness, rebounding, and a dependable interior worker, Cooper fits the bill—he looks like the kind of big who wins extra possessions and quietly tilts games.
