Are you slow?  If so, I'll stop, because you seem slow.

I've said OVER AND OVER AND OVER we've needed Buddy on this team, and on past teams.  When I reference mid-majors it's because often, players like Buddy, go to those schools, because THE REST OF THEIR SKILL SET is not quite up to par to play big minutes at P5 schools.  I'm arguing about minutes, not whether he should be on the roster.

Lots of P5 skills have no time to invest in 40% three point shooters that come out of HS slow af and are not athletic.  They just don't.  They'd rather roll the dice on a BJ Johnson or a Goodine.  Do you think we could have found another slow AF white kid that shoots threes instead of Goodine?  I bet we could have! Why didn't we?  Is JB stupid?

Sometimes they work out great - like with Buddy!  Sometimes they likely never get off the bench - and we probably never see those ones, because they're on the bench.  The others, the ones that maybe never would have gotten off the bench for a P5 school, are excelling at mid-majors and driving to the rim with regularity!  The way Buddy does whenever he finds a mismatch, i.e., another super-nonathletic kid, and takes him off the bounce.

You are the most vacuous person I've ever debated on this forum.  Ever.  Definitely.  :)
