James Rojas, 6-8 Grad Transfer, Alabama

Rudi Williams might be a hard sell. We have a good, not great, PG returning for one final season and Rudi also only has one year left. I'm sure both guys are looking for the lion's share of the minutes. Porter could probably play a little 2 guard, but Rudi looks like a straight up PG, and a good one at that.

I think Taylor had talked about these concerns. His take is that 1. a good ball screen offense requires multiple ball handlers and 2. he can play off ball and plays well in that role.

I have been told that Coach Brown is one of the best coaches (better than future Shocker HOF coach GM, and Mark Turgeon, maybe Ralph too), so he should be able to manage these two playmaking guards (CP and Rudi) in an offense, and make them better together. They both appear to be able to make plays with the ball in their hands, and should be teachable (and make them better pros) to move without the ball to get open.

I have been told that "Brandon" will be the country's best POTUS........doesn't make it so

I think these two guards could play together and be a tremendous backcourt. You would have 2 good ball handling guards on the court at the same time that could pass and score. Go Shocks.

Emphasis on "score"; we've seen enough 'clanging'...

If we can get back to Rojas, I'm a bit concerned on how Eldridge talked about mobility issues since the second ACL repair.

He seemed to think Rojas was unlikely to be a PF because he may not have the mobility to defend an AAC PF.

I wonder about his mobility and leaping ability with two knee surgeries

If he got that concern from coaches who've seen him play, that's one thing. If it's his own opinion, that's completely different.

I liked the Qua signing more than Pleasant .. and the first few games of the year made it look like that was for good reason .. then he hit a wall lol

Same. Loved Qua. Wasn’t impressed with Joe but hoped he’d bring some Anton to the court for us.
