[quote]Agreed. He's a role player. A very good one, but a role player. His ceiling is Robin to a good team's Batman, which I think he probably will be by his senior year, but for now he's like the 3rd or 4th option for a good program. His handle just isn't good enough for him to create for himself o...

[quote] I think there is a high possibility that Stevenson will transfer if Nelson returns. Do you think he'll want to play 16 minutes off the bench in his second year? good point but not necessarily true. they can play at the same time like this past season and the minutes will be there if he s...

[quote] Yea, I don't get the whole defeatist attitude, the hell with UCONN, lets hit some threes and beat those guys. Kansas beat them by 4, Seton Hall 75-60 and Creighton beat them 85-66 and UCONN beat St. Johns 95-90 in the Big East Tourney. So, they are not invincible. I like playing them fir...

[quote]Nah, that wasn’t meant for basketball peeps who understand the nuances. That was meant for people trying to say UNC isn’t as good as Bama this year, which literally makes zero sense by virtually all metrics. Our best win is probably AU at home, and UNC has arguably 5 wins better than that inc...

[quote] Tide Hoops | 0-0 (0-0) Sam Walters AKA Lefty Larry!![/quote] ha well it was great to see he was scoring like that. based on that short clip it seems he had a few nice finishes through contact as well. the physicality adjustment was mine and im sure many others biggest concern for him co...

[quote]Guards left out there that seem to fit with what we'd want out of a 10-12 min a game backup PG (stats vs Top 200) - Jalen Rucker (Army) (91% FT, 21.2 Assist rate, 39% 3PT, 74% at the rim) - Kyree Brown (New Hampshire) (75% FT, 31.7 Assist rate, 42% rim) - Peyton Daniels (Jacksonville...

[quote] We don’t have a true PG. We are gonna have Wrightsell who is a backup P6 player IMO from the Big Sky to be our primary ball handler. That’s not good[/quote] ill say this in regards to our style of play. im not concerned with having a traditional anything. our style isnt about that. brand...

im surely in the minority here but im glad hes moving on. theres no way our D wouldve been top tier with him on the team. those very small 3 or even 4 guard lineups that our current roster wouldve demanded at times wouldve been fun but not championship level. then on offense hes a fun player who had...

[quote] 4 star recruit but only averaged 1.3 pts and 1.8 rebounds last year for Washington St. Probably really really raw but maybe he could kind of help solidify the backend of the defense. I don’t know how much I’d expect for someone that couldn’t get but 6 minutes a game at Washington St. We are...

[quote] With Walton, Estrada, and Wrightsell, I feel like offensively we should at least be close to last year. Anyone have any word on the defense of these three outside of steal/block numbers? With arguably our best two on-ball guys gone, I'm hoping at least one of them is good on that end and th...
