TA along with ES are the kind of junk yard dogs this program needs. I find it interesting that some of the same thing ES gets praised for TA gets crucified for.

For example
"I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet. I like to win more than 99.9% of the people in this world, but he may top me." -- Gregg Marshall 12/23/13 :peaceful:

Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".
A physician called into a radio show and said:
"That's the definition of a stool sample."

A lot of shitty "hot takes" in this thread attempting to draw negative inferences by comparing a freshman in one high-level D1 program with a senior in another, separate and distinct high-level D1 program.
Like someone else said, this will be an interesting thread to revisit in 2-3 years.The truth will set you free. But first, it will piss you off.

Just wondering, why are there two threads on this transfer/recruit? Maybe they could be consolidated?Where oh where is our T. Boone Pickens.

Show me one thread on a player in the main basketball forum that started before the preseason of their first year on the floor. I sure as hell don't see any main basketball threads on the other recruits. I just find it kind of stupid to have two threads on the same subject running concurrently. My suggestion is that they be combined so we don't have to bounce back and forth. Somehow seems logical to me.

According to Synergy's shot chart logs, just under a a third of Allen's shot selection last season came on jump shots farther than five feet from the basket and he shot 23.2 percent (13 of 56) on such attempts.
As Taylor Eldridge points out it is pretty impressive what he can do without an effective jump shot in his repertoire. On the other hand teams will eventually play him like they played Rashard.
Teddy did shoot 74% from the line and seems to have okay form and touch from the line so perhaps a competent shot doctor can significanlty improve that part of his game.
The other concern is whether or not he can mesh into team concept basketball that 3G seems to value highly.

Love Rashard but he is nothing anywhere close to this prospect offensively. Allen is tough to guard one on one, obviously very strong and gets you behind him in the post, and has multiple angles and release points around the basket.
Not completely sold on him personally, but he has plenty of people in this thread that are sold on his ability. Know that he will have to be good to beat out some ot the talent we brought in this signing period.
Scoring and rebounding stats from his last two high school years was quite impressive.
