Chance is a Soph next year, no?

So would the next year be his Jr year?

 

[two3zone]

I want to believe but I cant until I see him play 20 minutes in a game.

i think this was his sophmore year but with the injury he gets to repeat it?

Chance would be a Redshirt Soph next season.

He was 3 years of eligibility left, although I don't expect him to stay for all 3..

144% THIS.

The most important ability -
is availability.

Chance clearly has talent, skills, and is a plus athlete & defender.
When healthy.

Cannot count on or even plan on what Chance can do for us, until he shows he can do it consistently.

I’m rooting for him, because he would be an amazing wildcard for our team next year.

If he can get healthy, he will give the team what Q gave.

Is that bc the 2 injuries were related or a general concern after 2 years of injuries. Understand either way, just hoping it's former. Personally I think its >50% chance is one of teams top 3 players next year but I acknowledge not injury if last years injury was related.

We could've used his defense Sooooooooo bad this season. If he's healthy I'd hope he would pass JJ or Bell on the depth chart at some point or if he doesn't he's a much needed 20-30 minute guy off the bench that can lock people down.

I hope not.

A lower APR?

When did you watch him at practice?

Freshman year. Medical redshirt then regular redshirt. Four years left.

Sounds good. He can play four years here, get his doctorate, then move over to play for Boeheim's Army.

Wow...I missed that...I thought he played in too many games at Auburn

When did you watch him at practice?

Ethan Cole dominated at practice.

Then again so did Wes Johnson.

10 minutes off the bench at three different positions. And defending the best perimeter player of the opponent.

I watched a high school game of his. He just destroyed some kid. I don't know if Westry had some beef with this poor guy, but he really dogged him. If Westry is like that all the time, he's one of those guys who just locks you down and then gets right in your face to tell you all about it.

Every team we play will hate his guts, and we will love him for it.

Me? Never

People I tune into and hear from have seen him play

Take a Chance on Me

I could be misremembering but relatively sure I read that sometime after he was officially redshirting this past year.

If he lives up to his potential it's hard to imagine he will be here for another four (or three) seasons anyways. I said last offseason he would be our best guard if he was healthy. That is still the biggest of "ifs" though.

If he is healthy, and as good as advertised, then Bell will have to play defense, rebound, pass, and score to get a lot of minutes.
That would be great for the team.

This is Reds guy. They are super close and if he played this year, life woulda been great. Bummed for the kid mainly and he’s a great kid. Excited for him next season
