Given his height and athleticism he has a much easier time getting off his shot than JG.Benny improved for sure, but most realize Benny wasn’t covered when outside the line unlike Joe. Apples and oranges.

Are you saying they had poor shot selection?Who takes shots like JG and Buddy and shoots over 40% though?
You’re right. I got him mixed up with someone else. I still think he and Smith stink.I thought Loyer was a FR.
No argument here.You’re right. I got him mixed up with someone else. I still think he and Smith stink.
Absolutely, by design, who else did you want to shoot and from where? Jesse was an option and we fed him, until he couldn’t do squat.Are you saying they had poor shot selection?
I've always been impressed with your ability to make the #s say what you want them to say. It's true he finished 11th in minutes at 34.7 but nearly all of the ten guys ahead of him averaged less than a minute more than JG. In other words his #s were essentially right in line with those other players. So yeah he was near the top of the ACC in terms of minutes played. You can go through D-1 roster after roster and most guys (even far more accomplished than JG) do not play 35 min a night.
I agree and that's where the blame primarily has to be directed toward the coaching staff. Wasn't always that way. We used to have more balance, better players etc. I still maintain that during their SU careers JG and BB were good not great 3FG shooters. Career 36% can't be fully explained away by poor shot selection.Absolutely, by design, who else did you want to shoot and from where? Jesse was an option and we fed him, until he couldn’t do squat.
I still think that can be reasonably defined as near the top. Wasn't the top guy at 36 min?BTW, with your little “within a minute” game, there are more within a minute of him below him (6) than above him (4).
That probably encompasses over 1700 D-1 starters so the top 50 would be in the 97th percentile of all starting players.
Loyer is 19 years oldYes. I hated JB’s offense once the talent level decreased. We didn’t do ourselves any favors giving our teams good looks. Watching Creighton and Princetons sets last night looked like a different sport to me.
Smith was a freshman. Loyer is 23 years old.
According to basketball reference.com the top guy in terms of minutes in the ACC was at 36.0 while they had JG at 34.7. But somehow JG is not near the top? okee-dokee.Cool. Count every team even scrubs. You should count every player even the 13th man. What’s that? 3500 players? Again, ACC he was 11th. That’s not near the top in all of P5.
I would agree, but if it’s about academics then Stanford is the best spot unless he goes to Duke or UVANot putting down Joe, but I doubt it’s about academics when he is, maybe rightfully so, still focusing on the next stage of his basketball career.
I guess we will see, I’m going to go ahead and assume that a guy who can get interest from the schools that have reportedly reached out probably isn’t going to be bench a player.We'll see where he lands but imo there aren't very many P5 schools where JG would come in and start. I could see him contributing off the bench with some teams but he's a 6'1" shooting guard with limitations in terms of handle, ability to penetrate/create and just overall athleticism. He's a good not great three point shooter. Most importantly he'll struggle mightily in m2m, even more so than he did in the zone. That alone will limit his PT at most programs.
As best as I can tell there were 18 P5 players that logged more minutes than JG this season. That's not near the top?Cool. Count every team even scrubs. You should count every player even the 13th man. What’s that? 3500 players? Again, ACC he was 11th. That’s not near the top in all of P5.
We'll see. I'm not sure we can take it as gospel that all of those programs are extending an offer to JG.I

Apples to oranges comparison at bestWe'll see. I'm not sure we can take it as gospel that all of those programs are extending an offer to JG.
In the past when folks would criticize JB for losing guys via transfer, the defenders would quickly point to cases where the transfer didn't thrive at his new destination. I think there is a good chance of that happening here unless JG lands either at a mid major or accepts a role off the bench. jmo
He had a much easier time getting his shot off because nobody was within 10 feet of him when he shot.Given his height and athleticism he has a much easier time getting off his shot than JG.
Can we trade Joe to Clemson for PJ Hall?
I think you guys may be underestimating the G league and the European leagues. He will still be short and athletically inferior to most players. He will likely have to play man D. His shot would play, though. I love the young man but I don't thin pro ball is in his future.No one has really addressed it yet...but if he doesn’t go portal...
The nba will be a tough go right now but he can play in the g league or overseas and get paid.

JB did a better job rotating up front.(prob cuz he never figured it out)BTW, with your little “within a minute” game, there are more within a minute of him below him (6) than above him (4).
