No. Not just no, but heck no. I love Retin. Love his energy, love his effort. But he's no shooting guard. He can't shoot a lick. He can slash and drive, but....

Being a SG doesn't mean you have to be a great shooter...

he'll be playing either the 1 or 2 whenever he's on he court. Plays really good D and is a better passer than most of our other guys. Senario Hillman couldn't shot a lick either and he played his whole career at SG.

Agree on all points. Hillman is a great comparison.
Neither handle the ball well enough to be a full time 1, and are too small to be the 3, so they play the 2.
We just haven't had a true 2 in a long, long time in my opinion.

"I was humbled by the Kentucky offer, and they had watched me last year at Peach Jam," Petty said. "They offered me [in April].

The schools sticking out most to me are Alabama, Auburn and Georgia."

Petty said new Alabama coach Avery Johnson has made him a priority. "He is a great guy and he came down from Alabama and we talked for a while," Petty said. "He was just trying to get the feel for it. I feel he'll change the program around and make them a better program than they were, and put Alabama on the map."

Kind of odd I heard him say he wanted to go to KY. Probably wants to stay a lil closer to home.

Eubanks will be on 97.7 at 12:35. Anyone able to listen? I'd love to hear a recap.

That would make the most sense since he visited about a month back. He had bad stats in juco and bad stats at New Mexico, but if he is indeed the guy, I'll convince myself that he'll contribute next year.

Shawn Smith is another guy who it could be, and I'd actually be thrilled if it was him. He signed with Nevada but wasn't medically cleared by them so he's trying to go to another school : LINK

Wow 247 has Bama, Marq, and St. Johns as the top schools wonder why we didn't hear about the visit.
