In the transfer environment a redshirt steals a potential year of eligibility from a kid. I’d rather see a sophomore redshirt than a freshman. Both sides (coach/player) can agree that the fit is right but further development is needed.Wichita State, home of the All-Americans. -
Huh, how does a freshman RS steal a year byut not a sophomore RS not? In the old math I grew up with, a year = a year!Originally posted by BOBB View Post"I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet.

Because neither party, coach nor player, know what they are getting into as a freshman. -
what he means is that if a freshman redshirts and then decides its not a fit and then transfers, he loses a year. The kid can then either go to JUCO (like Rian Holland) or lose a year sitting out at another D1 school. You don't lose a year if you redshirt and stay in the program.

I really don’t care if he redshirts. Most Top 175 recruits don’t. He is rated higher than players like Austin Reeves and Holland. Reaves could have used one because of his health (chronicly injured shoulder).
However, if he coach thinks he needs to redshirt and he agrees, then he should do it. The emphasis is that he needs to agree. The other emphasis is that I don’t see how anyone can determine that he should redshirt from a high light video here on Shockernet. It’s too difficult to determine his opposition, etc. I know that Woodstock is a highly rated prep school just like Sunrise. His opposition would be very good players.Comment

He played the 1, 2, 3, and 4 spots in high school. Did recruiting services list him as a PF?Originally posted by Shockm View PostKung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment

He also washed towels, uniforms and bottled the spring-fed water. Let's give him full disclosure.Originally posted by Kung Wu View PostComment

That’s why I asked the OP for clarification on their red shirt comment. Thought maybe they had some additional information or insight they could share. Alas, they did not.Originally posted by Shockm View Post
He may need a RS, he may not. There doesn’t seem to be enough information available at this point to make that determination.
Either way, I’m lookng forward to seeing this guy in action!Comment

He also -- get this -- lettered in soccer. That dude would have made one heckuva center back.Originally posted by SHOXAAC View PostKung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment

Noah with 17 pts with 5 treys in a blowout win. Woodstock Academy is 29-1 on the year.
“The rebellion on the populist right against the results of the 2020 election was partly a cynical, knowing effort by political operators and their hype men in the media to steal an election or at least get rich trying. But it was also the tragic consequence of the informational malnourishment so badly afflicting the nation. ... Americans gorge themselves daily on empty informational calories, indulging their sugar fixes of self-affirming half-truths and even outright lies.'”

Reading the newspaper article today about the problem of the shocker players inability to make passes and read the situation on when to make the pass is why I am pleased they signed Noah Fernandez. Noah is a true point guard that can shoot. He is not a combo guard trying to learn the pg position. He is a pg. He is the real deal and I don't care how small he is. He has got some mojo. For those thinking he is too small look at those photos that Coldblooded posted on Fred V. when he was a Freshman. Talk about being small. And we all know what Fred went on to accomplish. Not saying Noah is Fred, but Coach sees something in Noah and that's good enough for me.Comment

The loss of Shamet and Reaves turned this year into a painful rebuild but I think next year will be closer to what we’ve come to expect out of WSU teams with the year after that being fully back to the Monsters of the Midwest.Originally posted by TheShocktocles View Post
Assuming they return, Burton and Torres should improve and provide stability at the point which should allow Fernandes to develop at his own pace. Maybe he’ll be ready to contribute day 1 like Baker, Shamet, etc or maybe not.Comment

Totally agree. Coach is always talking about 3 headed monster at center but you are right that our pg play should be better next year with JB and RT coming back. With Fernandez that's a 3 headed monster at pg. Look at the assists this year by JB and RT. They both have had their moments but they also have some bad games. Hopefully they can cut down on the bad games next year and improve their shooting over the summer.Originally posted by pie n eye View PostComment
