      Who knows...we may need to sign more than one guard to go with Stevenson.

    We've needed a "point" for two years now. Still need one.

      He looks good in the above highlihts but who doesn't look good in their highlights. His shooting % this past year were decent at 47.6% from the field (38.6% 3Ptr) and 89.9% from the line. Those compare favorably with Connor Frankamp's Senior shooting stats on more volume but less challenging competition.

      Perhaps the biggest red flag is that he had 102 assists this past season (3.2 per game) but he also had 121 turnovers (3.78 per game).

          low steals, ass/to ratio is not good and 3pt shooting looks to be spotty from year to year.

            Meh, if we are looking for a grad transfer, he needs to be better than this guy. Looks very underwhelming imo

                  Does he look like some 40-yr old dude you'd see schooling people at the Y? Cause that's what I'm looking for in a PG grad transfer. It worked out so well last time.

                    Huh? When did we have a PG grad transfer?

                    Maybe he’s thinking of Malcom? But he was just a sr, not a grad transfer

                    As a starter - No.

                    As a back-up - Perhaps

                      I thought 3G said he did not recruit backups

                          Maine grad transfer Aaron Calixte (16.9 ppg) told ESPN he has cut his list to Oklahoma, Grand Canyon, DePaul, Florida State and Missouri. Will visit Grand Canyon this weekend and Oklahoma next weekend.

                          WSU not on his short list

                            That list is...interesting. I'm an OU football fan so I follow OU blogs. They seem to be all excited about Calixte. I asked why they want a PG who averages nearly 5 turnovers per game and who totaled nearly as many turnovers as assists.

                            After the great success Trae Young gave them for half a season, they've decided to stop counting turnovers.
