          Sounds like lots of options for the last spot, with the emphasis on an older player, which makes sense.

              Don’t think we need a high volume below average 3pt shooter, pretty sure we just got rid of one of those. Maybe on fewer higher percentage attempts he could raise his 3pt shooting percentage.

                I like the idea of a grad transfer. Our last one turned out to be a pretty decent player. Plus, it gives us two seniors for next year and helps break up another potential log jam freshman class.

                Clearly, this guy can play against mid-major talent. Would be nice to get someone with just a bit more height but as we've seen, it's not always about how tall a player is. But he would certainly fill a void at the 4.

                  Yes he played a lot of games against so-called midmajor teams. But those videos also show him playing against Michigan State, South Carolina, UCONN, South Florida, Vermont, Providence, and a few others as well. I hope we take a look . He is a graduate transfer with skill and experience.

                    Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:

                      Not much difference except that his 2pt % just about fell off the chart.

                      ShockTalk Wonder if that is a difference due to size of the opponent he's facing?

                      That would be my guess. He also goes more to the 3pt shot against better teams.
