Braswell

[OrangeDW]

He literally has made one 3 pointer on the year. In garbage time of a blowout against Northeastern. His 3 point % is meaningless. 1-2. Lol.

I agree, I would’ve liked to have seen more of him. Unfortunately we didn’t blow enough teams out.

His measurables are good and he looked pretty smooth athletically IMO in the limited times I’ve seen him. Would seem to be the prototypical late blooming lanky Syracuse forward that comes on in another year or two.

But...but...50%!

His DNPs and Carey not getting a chance to play through his mistakes while Buddy gets extended run is why we have these conspiracy theories. I'm actually surprised JAB would not be more conservative with his minutes because I'm sure the last thing he wants is a distraction in the media.

What?

Ky Feldman is also shooting 50% from 3 and is averaging 1 made 3 pointer every 6 minutes!

I smell a new thread coming...

Southerland clone by Junior is the hope here...pretty sure it will happen too

I was thinking somewhere in between Southerland and Damone Brown

unless the rules have changed, it's not out of the question that he could apply for a retroactive redshirt post season. you just have to come up with a plausible injury claim

We have these conspiracy theories because posters think there are conspiracies. Which there are not.

You know, that's funny, because that's exactly the kind of thing that somebody would say IF THEY WERE HIDING A CONSPIRACY, BEES.

I would like this very very much.

I actually think that Braswell projects as a guy who could be a pretty good player down the road, once his physical maturity catches up to his athleticism. Wish we could have redshirted him [which I know we don't often do as a practice].

Intriguing skill set, given his ability to handle / pass / shoot.

BJ 2.0

In both cases - RS would have been ideal, but alas...

This is pretty great thread - lots of fantastically entertaining/lol worthy responses. Well done, forum!

 

[pfister1]

Aren’t we redshirting him?

No Boeheiming him, very minor difference. Both result in no playing time. One also carries with it the loss of a year of eligibility.

One thing I've noticed about Braswell during his limited playing time -- although he is scrawny, he doesn't have the same frame that former stringbeans like Damone Brown, BJ Johnson, or young Hakim had.

He's actually got broad shoulders and kind of a barrel chest, which suggests that he's got the frame to add "good" weight. His legs are skinny as hell, though -- amazing that he was a two-time state champion high jumper on those toothpicks.

This is exactly the thread we get when it is 5 days between games...

Look at Olympic high jumpers - they're all built like Braswell.
REALLY long and lanky.
He has an ideal build for that - as proven by his results.

This thread reminds me why I usually only read the football forums.
