Culture Shift taking place

Hope we didn't plan on entertaining any recruits this Friday or Saturday.

best time to bring them in. Do you remember Cle's story? He got stuck here after visiting by weather or something and said that helped seal the deal.
Maybe we get a repeat.

Wasn’t the weather horrible on Gregg’s first visit?

Yes, it was a horrible day. Rain, sleet, bitter cold wind, and then snow!

[another shocker]

in april, i believe.

I remember reading on the Winthrop forum's somebody mentioned "Wichita's on fire" based on the weather radar that day.

I think the weather was also crappy during the weekend when many of HCGM's first WSU recruits visited--Kyles, Stutz, etc.

Crappy weather has historically been a great thing for our recruiting. Hopefully we have a few in this weekend.

Second on team in block percentage behind Shaq He seems to Asbjorn opponent’s shots

It is ridiculous to use any of his sats when the sample size is so small, for example he gave up 1.22 points per possession on defense this year which had he played just one more possession he would have ranked 3940th out of 4026 players ranked or one of the worst defenders in the nation. He was also in the 27th percentile on offence. I don't think he is god enough to play here and don't think he fits the style of modern basketball but i hope he proves me wrong. However, using any stats from such a small sample size can be wildly misleading and should be done so with caution.

Small sample size, yes. Is the 1.22 an individual statistic or a team statistic? The few times I saw him, his individual man-to-man defense was certainly far better than 3940 out of 4026! He is not yet comfortable playing the team defense, but how could he be, especially when the rest of the team wasn't playing it very well either.

AM has the passing ability to be a very good inside out passer, which is exactly where the current game is going. If he can clog the lane defensively without requiring too much help from the others, he will play and play a lot. We will see.

Its from synergy and its an individual stat he gave up 11 points on 9 possessions where he was the primary defender. He gave up 5 baskets all of them were jump shots. But again sample size matters if just 2 of those jump shots miss then all of sudden his numbers say he is a great defender.
