2021 WSU transfers starting

[Rocky Mountain Shock]

We need PFs and Centers that can immediately contribute. That's gonna be a helluva challenge.

Trey and Trevin were both good players.

Trey had a similar skill set to Cleanthony, except he wasn't nearly the offensive player Cle was. If he could have shot 35-37% from 3, with a higher shot volume, and close to 80% of his free throws, he would have been another Cle. His shooting was inconsistent, but he was a very consistent and good rebounder for a 6'6 forward. (Cle may have averaged a rebound more). When he hit 3's and his free throws, he was a good wing, but he often wasn't hitting his shots. Either way, he was a good defender, and gave really good effort. We may not get better at the 4, but I'm hoping we can find someone with his skills, who is longer and can help protect the rim. Shooting like Cle would be great, but that's difficult to find.

As for Trevin, he was a good point guard and had a good skill set. He was a decent shooter, with good handles, and played excellent defense, but his lack of height held him back a little. I just thought that Porter was a little better and has a high ceiling. Porter is several inches taller with long length for a PG, and is a little springy. He seemed to lose confidence in his shot, but I think he can be a good shooter, and is a very good passer, and great on the break. He isn't as fast as AG (probably nobody is), but he has good quickness, and is a good defender.

Cle was an extremely good slasher ... I don't think I ever saw that from Trey. Trey was a solid rebounder and could spot up and hit a decent not great percentage of 3s.

Plenty of room for big men.

But... If we end up getting a bunch of 6-6/6-7 athletes that can rebound and shoot, that would be fine too.

But it is nice to have at least 1 guy that can protect the rim.

Not sure if its been mentioned here, but Taylor tweeted to not expect Bilau to be back.

never did

I'm not sure Trey has the skillset to play on the wing for extended periods. I know that may be what he wants or how he sees himself, but he never really displayed what would truly be needed there. He's best utilized as an undersized 4. I liked Trey. I liked the effort we got from him and what he did for us. If he truly wants to be a wing, he definitely needs to drop down to a lower level where he won't be exposed as much for what he's lacking.

As far as Trevin goes, I thought he had some things to offer, but I'd hardly say we messed up with him. He was at best the 3rd best PG on the team and that's only if you don't add Etienne into the mix. I'm sure he will find success at EKU though. Much more than he would have found in the American. I think he could have potentially been a decent backup playing 10 to 15 minutes here.

but maybe not Trey's opinion

Overall if that's true .. i think that's basically what most people expected. Only odd one was Trey Wade transferring rather than going pro

Trey was never supposed to be PF in the 1st place. Wanted to play out on the wing and Trevin gonna kill on EKU. We messed up on a good PG

Teddy is not meant to be a college basketball player. He needs to go overseas and make money and get in all the trouble he wants.

[???]

I had info on Trevin and mixed him up with Trey. TREVIN Wade to EKU is what I meant to communicate. Now I see that I didn’t make that clear as I responded to a query about Trey. I’m sorry.

[1979Shocker]

Let TA come in if he wants, but only as a walk-on.

[SubGod22]

We took a flyer on Teddy before and it didn't work out. Then he went to Nebraska and it didn't work out. And that was even closer to his support group. I really hope he's just passing thru and not staying.
