I was talking about Pearl's WJOX statement about 7 new faces.

I know the scholarship situation and need to process 1 at this point in time. I assume it is one of Atewe, Purchase and Thompson. If we had height, Granger could be thrown on that list TPOS

K. Your last sentence sounded like you thought we process 1 if we added 1 after HS.

You know that ALL of them are taller than Granger, right?

KT & Mason had 12 & 8% jumps in 3 point % made this year. Either those kids are naturally good or our staff is good w/ teaching 3s.

They're all 6'8 per the team roster. Regardless Granger is by far the best athlete and jumper of the bunch. It would be nice to see him improve and be more consistent.

I only see Atewe getting processed due to medical reasons not playing ability. I jsut don't know if he will ever get to 100% on that leg again from what is being reported.


quote:

Purchase


Granger is clearly superior to Purchase in post defense and even playing ability. Otherwise, we would have seen Purchase get minutes over Waddell, Thompson and Canada at 4. On top of not getting minutes, we might as well process now rather than commit a few years to him then show him the door.


quote:

Thompson


Again, Granger started over Thompson due to his superior post defense/play. Also, Thompson being a former walkon makes the stripping of a scholarship easier than Granger

Keep all 3 and tell Granger to go play some prison ball.

I THINK Purchase was redshirted...

I could be wrong, but thats what I think.

He's a stretch 4, better shooter than Thompson and Granger. Just needs to get stronger and acclaimated to American game. I'd be shocked if he is processed

Could be true but we didn't see that in the little action he got early in the year.

Purchase played and is not eligible for a redshift

Walk on kids get year to year scholarships and the understanding that it may get pulled. They didn't show up with a scholarship offer. That said it is last resort to pull a walkon scholarship

You need to have an injury to get a red shirt typically. Unless you know of an injury no one else does

ICYMI earlier BMatt doesn't expect him back. No disrespect intended here. I noticed you've been jonesing Jack all year long and I'm not sure why.

Is this why purchase literally didn't play a second after the fifth or sixth game? I was always confused as to why he went from a consistent bench player to the white caboose.

I'm not on the staff nor seen an insider give info on it so I have no clue.

His play time gradually got smaller as we went along. It wasn't like he was playing and then one game got shut off, iirc.
