Portal strategy will be interesting. Key is keeping as many pieces in place via NIL as possible. Continuity and development make all the...
D was the big concern for him early. Almost seemed like he was thinking too much instead of reacting. But the dude does not back down and will put...
Reminds me of Bonner. Great shooter who couldn’t get anything to go down early in his first season in limited minutes.
He had a really good outing passing the ball, but that wasn't his strength last year at all. Condon and Haugh have been terrific hitting cutters...
He will never be a good shot blocker, but that length will always make it hard to score in the paint. They key to doing so last year was to get...
There was a lot of more going on for that poor kid....
Chinyelu is actually massively improved on that score from a year ago (down to 7.7 per 100 possessions against 9.5 last year), and is better than...
Which is insane given the fact that he usually draws the toughest assignment 1-3 when he is out there. I like Miyakawa’s site, but not sure his...
Are you thinking of the wild, spinning 3 pt play (that probably should have been called on the floor, lol)? Yes, the margin is always so darn...
Very interested to see what approach he takes. If there is one thing February has proven, it's that Aberdeen can handle a starting role and...
I think so. We were tied with Duke, but got the nod for third because of 3 first place votes (none for Duke). Bama will lose their 23 first place...
Prather is a terrific example. Very different players, ofc (comp I usually use for Aberdeen is Justin Hamilton, with a little Wilbekin), but in...
Just an unbelievable job of development by the staff. He was always a plus defender who could guard multiple positions, but he has improved as a...
Kugel didn’t actually break out until his senior year. Pretty sure Aberdeen was the lead guard before that.
Wright didn’t always shoot a ton, but he was 41% from the arc for his career. That’s pretty impressive. .
Right. Bonner was not only an elite shooter, but also very effective collegiately at the high post and low blocks. Very solid positional post and...
Exactly! Energy isn’t his issue. It’s more foul trouble.
Agree that expectations for Handlogten shouldn’t be terribly high today. Adjusting to game speed is not easy, especially when everyone else has...
What I’ve found interesting about that Blue Bloods in recent years is that they haven’t been as successful as really good coaches who find a solid...
This kid was just such an interesting eval and develop. Older for his grade, we still urged him to do a prep year so we would be more physically...
