Message: [QUOTE="joct, post: 3345463, member: 2001"] I think when Duncan signed to come here in 86-87, he was a very high profile recruit and at the time he was even considered "oh good we have a replacement for Pearl". Sherman Douglas only played 10 mpg or so the year before, so it looked wide open when Duncan came in. Then he couldn't play because of academics, and Sherman took off. I remember Sherman was good as a freshman but I had no idea he'd be as good as he was. Then it looked like he'd be solid at the 2 guard in 87-88, but Roe really developed after his frosh year to where he played a lot, and with Sherman being a superstar, he didn't see a path to play a lot, though he was still good for 20mpg. Then of course Roe left, and left with no returning guards on an otherwise loaded team in 89-90 [/QUOTE]
