Going by actual statistics, Grant and Estrada should be 2 and 3 behind Dickinson as far as the ones they have listed. They have them ranked pretty high at least.
Not sure why they left off Jesse Edwards he has been killing it at WV.

I wish we had gotten Kel'el Ware, he has been playing really well for Indiana, looks like he wouldve been the perfect Center for us. It looks like Indiana is gonna be terrible too, they were favored by 26 over army and almost lost.
Kel'el Ware Indiana game 2 highlights - twitter
If Bediako had already been gone before Ware committed I think we wouldve had a better shot, he committed to Indiana April 10th and Bediako didnt announce he was staying in the draft til May.

Wasserman is correct to use the term 'fluidity' there, IMO.
Dude looks smooth.

Some FOG reporter asked Oats why he is scheduling games on Friday nights during football season…..you gotta be fricking kidding me.

Nimari has got 12 points in 4 minutes vs St. John’s. I wish we could have hung on to him just for his defense
15 in 6 minutes
15 in 6 minutes

He played 25 minutes in Michigans last game and didn't score, he is as inconsistent as they come.

Offensively. I feel like his defense was very consistent

He wasn't that good defensively. He had 10 steals and 4 blocks all last last season. For comparison sake Herb Jones had 44 steals and 22 blocks here as a true freshman.

His defense wasn’t that good. People gave him credit for a lot of the stuff Bradley did.

I think all 3 guys would’ve been better served to stay. But on that entire list I don’t see any of the 3 of them in the top 10 while we have 2.

This is not a reasonable or fair comparison. Herb is an annual NBA All-Defense candidate, not a college role player. Burnett is a better defender than Cosby, Dioubate, Walters, and - since he's apparently redshirting - Parker, which is what actually matters. Because right now there are very few options for competent perimeter defense on our bench and we certainly could have used him.

Well compare 10 steals and 4 blocks in a season to anyone you want to, it's not good.
Posted on 11/13/23 at 7:58 pm to CrimsonFever
Burnett's played 76 minutes at Michigan this year (3 games) and has one steal. I am not sure where the talk about him being a really good defender came from. With his size and wingspan he should be one but he's not.
He was way below average on defense last year and has been again this year.

Did you watch the Houston game?

He has shown some flashes, but on offense and defense he is very inconsistent from game to game.
Mark Sears has 2 steals through 2 games this year, Estrada has 4 steals through 2 games and Burnett has 1 steal through 3 games, we arent missing anything. Sure Burnett scored 20 in the first half tonight but then he scored 0 in the second half, it's not only from game to game he's wildly inconsistent its from half to half.

BJ Mack, another center we looked at had a good game for SC tonight, 13 rebs and 17 points.
