I don’t think JUCO stats are super reliable or worth investing in much. Watch his video and you can see the talent.

I did watch the video - and again it's done against terrible defense. Guess I just don't get enthralled with every recruit like some of you.

Well he is 45th in scoring in the Jayhawk Conference. I'm not as excited as some of you. This is a conference that plays absolutely no defense. Hell Cowley averaged 107 pts per game. I think he is 5th on his own team in scoring. Hoping for the best though!

Udeze can score plenty. This guy can do things that Udeze can't.

It's not all about points.

Hey, just trying to get clarity on what Taylor reported. Taylor using "Back-up" not me, so I am assuming that is what Brown told him. I am not freaking out by any means. I just see lack of insight of this strategy (promoting the concept of recruiting back-ups). I never remember Marshall referring a signed recruit as a back-up, or Scott Thompson for that matter. Just think it is a bad communication strategy.

Yeah, it’s an interesting thing to say. I guess we’ll see what happens.

I have a feeling you don't get excited for much.

So I guess you’ve never gotten excited about any juco player we’ve ever added, since there’s minimal defense at that level. Kid should be a solid addition. Not really much to dislike.

But why automatically assume the words are the coaches and not Taylor’s? Taylor is a professional journalist, if he was told something by the coach he usually makes that clear.

No one said this will be the only big guy we sign. Lord knows we could use a couple more.

[pie n eye]

Not to mention this is all based on a sub tweet. Nowhere in Taylor’s main tweets or article is the word back up mentioned.

Yes we still have what.... 5 Scholarships left?

My comprehension of your post is not working and I am confused, which shouldn't be a surprise to anyone on this board. Your first sentence indicates the phrase "back-up 5" might be Taylor's and not the coaches. Then your second sentence suggests because Taylor is a "professional journalist" he would clarify the phrase through the coaches. What is your point? It was Taylor's wording, or was it the coaches wording and Taylor confirmed it prior to printing it. I promise I am not trying to be a butt, just trying to understand.

Have you seen JC ball? It's guard dominated almost everywhere. Big man stats don't usually jump out at you at that level.

Yes I've seen it and am well aware. I'll just hope for the best and move on at this point!

[Shocker_Power]

Sorry...you don't use the term back-up at any position when getting ready to sign a player.

Do they ever say "impact backup" player?

This thread is on the verge of the BodyBuilding.com topic where they debated how many days per week a guy worked out.
