Originally posted by Dave Stalwart View PostI stand by my theory that Marshall has already identified someone who is not at all ready this season (like not even close) but may think he is. Someone who can get owned at practice, forget plays and still believe he will play. Someone who is probably a little emotional about it too. The whole idea of forcing a shirt for the first time ever because he knows it is in this players best interest even though they probably don't get it (that they are not as ready as the rest of the team) is very believable to me. He's got a kid he needs to be a dad for. Marshall brought this up, not us. That makes it a very different level of potential reality in my opinion.
Who do you think that is, honestly? It's a really short list.

Your Best is Good Enough."

Frankamp made his mark by being the offense, not by setting up the offense. I'm not saying he can't make the trasition, but that is a really tough transition to make.
Conner has good handles and doesn't turn the ball over, but he has to show that he can see the court, make the passes that need to be made, and set up the offense. He hasn't shown that yet. It's probably a bit early to call him the best backup PG in WSU history. Especially when the current backup PG is going leaguue - and probably as a PG.The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.

Redshirting him would be the only way you can waste a year with Nurger, because even if he's fourth at his position, you could still use him for depth. If you RS him you can't use him for depth, and you get one less year with him able to play. You aren't protecting a year of eligibility with Nurger.
Even Grant Gibbs was done at Creighton by 25. Nurger is less than two months younger than Wamukota. Any discussion about RS'ing him is relying on the idea that Nurger would choose to essentially be an 8th year senior. I would hope Marshall would advise him against that even if he wanted to do it. If he has no hope at the NBA, then he needs to get his degree and think about his future.Last edited by Rlh04d; November 1, 2015, 09:12 AM.Originally posted by BleacherReportFred VanVleet on Shockers' 3-Pt Shooting Confidence -- ' Honestly, I just tell these guys to let their nuts hang.'

Originally posted by asiseeit View PostBased on the 20 minute scrimmage where EH played against RN it was obvious to me that
RN was the more polished player. EH has tremendous athleticism and strength but from what
I saw has much more to learn than RN. Remember, RN had lost weight from illness during
the middle of last season. He looked very healthy and much stronger / energetic at the
madness scrimmage and I thought he out played EH head to head. Of the two EH is the
obvious red shirt candidate.
