Yes, 100% on JP Estrella. I've been tracking him this year for that reason. He's a good transfer candidate. He'd help space the floor and he wouldn't break the bank. He and Maliq could hold down the 5, and by the time they both improve next year you could probably play them together with Maliq at the 4.
About 3 or 4 years ago, someone on the board, who contended he had sources, was saying the same thing about Edwards. He went so far as to say the SU coaches were helping him arrange a transfer.
Yeah it’s like, let us see what the guy can do in the game with double digit minutes before making a judgement one way or another. He seems like a good teammate and very engaged on the sideline during games. So let’s not write him off when we have a limited sample size on what he can do.
Eh, he's in his sophomore year and can't get minutes on a team without a center. Most guys who can provide quality minutes as a Junior or Senior are getting game time at this point.
I see what mean that he didn’t get minutes last night with no center. Just pointing out though that Maliq Brown is our center. He may be more of a forward at the next level, though he is a very good center. This isn’t the same thing when we played undersized centers like Dolezaj and Lydon.
Yeah, Jesse was coming on during his sophomore year. I remember he did a great job on Houston and Houston immediately went on its end-of-half run when Jesse went to the bench, which ended up being a run Cuse was never able to close. Hopefully the staff has an idea now as to Carey's future. And if Patterson looks like he'll overtake Carey next year, then that's all they need to know to make a decision.
Not the point I'm making.
Why not just play Carey, they can’t be too far off in skill level.
I think Red has to make some significant roster changes this offseason to be better than a middle of the pack ACC team and the center group is one of them. I do believe that this team would be better if Jesse had stuck around and Red was banking on him as being a senior leader until the NIL money issue.
Jesse also probably cost the Orange a Florida State game.
Centers do.
They better not still be here in 4 years.
That's different. Killing a kid's redshirt for no reason is not the right thing to do.
I’m jealous of his hair
Really wanted that jumper he took to drop, form & arc didn't look bad at all... perhaps a portend of what's to come. Yes, a portend
The kid moves with athleticism and fluidity and was really in a lot of good places on court tonight. Not writing him off yet.
That's why we're getting him minutes.
Nor should you.
He’ll get it now with the big man out for the year.
No kidding. He looked lost out there. Granted, 7 mins is nothing but a mid season spin up will be difficult, hopefully doable. Get Hima too.
