Class of 2016 Andrew White III thread - COMMITTED

[SUfaninAZ]

I'm already here. Where is everyone??? I'm ready.

I'm here!!!

 

[cuserulesall]

I'll have 10 to 15 homes here in the Phoenix area , can fit 30 or 40 Orange fans here comfortably . Has heated 80,000 gallon size pool and a huge 120 plus fan club house . Can rent for 150.00 each for a full 7 days ! Please Cuse make it to Phoenix !!!!! Locale Orange bar is 3 minutes away = Great food ! That's the best I can do . Go Cuse !

Huge "get," on many levels.

• Experienced player, to help replace the massive amount of experience we lost this offseason
• Knock down three point shooter--never can have enough of those, but also helps replace lost productivity from offseason attrition
• Perfect size for back line of the zone
• Provides a "true" 3 on a roster that didn't have one prior to White committing
• Provides emergency depth at 2 in a pinch, or if there are injuries
• Brings the scholarship players to 10, which means legitimate split squad practices

Need to see how it all gels, but White could be what this team needed to put us over the top. What projected as a good year now looks potentially like a GREAT one -- maybe even a top 5 / contending for a #1 seed type of year.

Let's Go Orange!!!

What a day. Just saw that Matt Moyer will be giving up #3. I do know the staff asked him to do that. Not sure if I like that or just don't care at this point. I'm just happy he's ours.

The VCU guys have a great sense of humor. It was a lot of fun reading their AW3 thread.

eh not so much

Here's what it sounds like [reading between the lines a bit]. #3 is important to White, and also the number that Moyer wants to wear. Moyer's injured foot makes a redshirt season a possibility, so he was willing to give it up to help appease White, knowing that he can get it back next season.

Regardless, what a team player Moyer is! Kid is already an ace recruiter for us--how can you not love Moyer?

RF2044 I am very surprised that White says he's under the impression he will be playing mostly at the top of the zone.

You beat me to this!

 

[normaliswear]

Wow... sure sounds like he's been told he's going to play a lot of guard here.

 

[RF2044]

You beat me to this!

He's not the coach.

But who cares? We landed him, which was important, and HUGE for our team's fortunes this upcoming season. Let it all sort itself out in practice.

LGO!!!

At least half the people who contributed to this thread should be committed, too.

If I wasn't so lazy, I'd play madlibs with JoeySimz appeal to O13 right here.

 

[SUalldway]

Shout out to Orangeman13, I knew you were on it all along

Also a big lol at the NCAA...final four in 2016 and look at this squad of 10 guys for 2016-2017. You can't hold James Arthur Boeheim down no matter how hard you try

This is my favorite part of a great story!

...and two seasons ago, BJ Johnson's father suggested that he'd been told his kid was going to see a lot of time at guard, too. How'd that turn out? Hint--BJ didn't see 1 minute of game time at guard the entire two seasons he was here.

I wouldn't read too much into a comment that didn't come from the coaches.

Considering how many debates you've had on the subject, I'd say you care.

Schnope.

I only cared about him GETTING here, which seemed semi-uncertain in recent weeks. I want to make another run--and landing White was the best way to position our team to do so. Glad he's here, glad we're adding him to a talented nucleus that had a ton of size / talent, but lacked a bit of proven scoring, outside shooting, and a true 3.

I doubt it. You wouldn't have a point guard in your starting lineup.

This gear wasn't given to him by mannys last night.

He committed a while back. He is no primadonna!

He's just a quiet guy.

I honestly doubted you. I posted something in doubt the other night but it quickly got deleted. I man up and apologize. Good info all along sir. Thank you.
