Brian Moore, 6-3 PG NEO A&M

[Wuzee]

Didn’t see a thread on this guy, so I think he’s buried inside another discussion somewhere.

Moore, who is ranked the No. 4 Juco player overall and top PG by College Basketball Times, has us in his final 3 along with DePaul and Iona.

Freshman qualifier with three years remaining.

Listed as a PG but he’s really a combo guard. In NEO’s opening weekend, he put up 33 pts vs Coffeyville and 24 points 10 assists in a win over Indy.

“Main thing is I just want to go to a school that will put the ball in my hands and allow me to have the keys to the car and lead the way to try and get to the NCAA tournament,” he said.

Sounds more like The Process then like Tyson Etienne.

Based on his statement, hard pass.

I trust the coaching staff to evaluate and make the offer. I’m on board if they think he can help our team.

Sounds more like The Process then like Tyson Etienne.

Here is his statement.
“One thing I can say for sure is that I'm a hard worker and I have a knack for wanting to learn and I feel like that's the reason why I keep getting better every year, '' he said. “I really want to learn the game of basketball and keep getting better day by day. I'm going to bring a lot of spirit and heart. I play with a chip on my shoulder especially since I wasn't that highly recruited out of high school, trying to prove everyday to every college that missed out on me how good I am. Main thing is I just want to go to a school that will put the ball in my hands and allow me to have the keys to the car and lead the way to try and get to the NCAA tournament,” he said. “That's been a dream of mine as a kid so I want to go to a program where I can be an impact player and help a team get over the hump.”

I can see Tyson saying a statement like this. Tyson is an "Alpha" type of basketball player with supreme confidence, and resolve. Moore sounds just like him imo, (except that Tyson was highly recruited out of prep school, I'm not sure about HS). After several years of being a Shocker, we know that Tyson is a great dude, and wouldn't think twice if he made this statement.

I can see TP making this statement. After knowing TP (and his daddy) for several years as a Shocker and onward after that, TP is a bad dude, and I'm glad he's somewhere besides Wichita.

What I'm saying is that one statement from a newspaper doesn't tell us very much, and we shouldn't make those judgements from a statement.

I’ve watched him several times. He would help us tremendously. Tough kid like CP and clever.

This is from Wuzee, who started this thread:

Wichita State: “Our relationship is pretty good. They have a player, actually Tyson Etienne who I know from New York. We have a very similar playing style and he worked really well for him. He’s projected to go first round right now in the NBA draft and they're looking to replace him so why not replace him with somebody with the same exact playstyle.”

I'm 69 years old white and can't jump. Tyson and I have about the same chance of going in the first round in the NBA draft. And in the right system he may have been a first or second round pick.
