Sometimes I can see where that hyperbole comes from. The college game is fast and physical and not every skill translates, at least not right away. An Oshae comes in and rushes around the hoops and misses everything. Jalen Carey can't run past or jump over everyone.

But Quincy's fundamental skills look so weak regardless of competition. He can't jump, he plays below the rim. He's not terribly quick (in the Wes Johnson sense) or fast (in the Keita/Roberson sense). His handle, to my perception, is worse than Edwards right now. He doesn't appear to have excellent vision or be a great shooter (not that I'd expect either), and he doesn't really have the nose for rebounding that guys like Roberson and Anthony did.

Now I'm not as tuned in to scouting as some here, but I would think that even a broad-shouldered kid of average height and athleticism would be expected to be superlative in a couple of those areas for Goodman to talk about him as an early entrant. It's very weird. But I wish SU fans would cut the kid some slack.
