GMac indicated pretty clear as well, in the Rothstein pc that he really likes the interchangeable players for PG already. So some people *not you Bees) might want to get good with the fact GMac may be all done on PG needs.
Well... that way lies madness.
Maybe...I mean presumably as head coach he has a feel on his team needs either direction?
Well, that is his job. So he needs to be right.
yup. after what we've seen at PG the past decade, Doty will look like a star PG feeding the entry compared to recent history...
Dual is a defensive minded, pass-first PG so scoring wasn't important him. But he had 15 against Michigan and scored 16 in their NCAA tourny game so he can score, it's just not the best part of his game. Players that don't score a lot of points can still positively impact a game. I think GMac and his staff believes Dual is one of those players.
Man it feels like physics class with all this talk about potential
Yeah, that's what is most concerning.
If you look at the recruiting thread for Hughes, most of the posts were actually more on the negative side before or around the time he signed. Sure, a few people knew, but I don’t think the buzz started until he began practicing with the team.
I mean, no coach should be “all done” with trying to procure as much talent as possible at all times. There’s an abundance of talent on the international market, so our coaches should always be looking there for options, as Gmac has said. Virginia added Thiis De Ridder in early June last year.
GMAC was a big fan of the Devo/Andy/MCW/G years where we had less than true 1G. We need 10-11 guys that are fundamentally sound skill players. We will have that. If your offense always starts with 1 guy up top, you stagnate as you note
He's terrific defensively, but I keep getting bad flashbacks to Carlos. People said we were fine, we don't need to add another pg.
Well, not to beat a dead horse, but Michigan’s offense always started with Cadeau up top, and stagnated all the way to the national championship.
We will be adding another point guard. Remember where you heard it.
I think we should auction off the remaining spots to D3 level players w/ very wealthy parents
NIL…right? I see what you’re doing there.
That wasn’t a comment on Doty. It was a comment that we’ve had terrible guard play.
I nearly replied that Doty only has 2 years left, but then realized with the 5 for 5 we could have guys like Doty, Folefec, and Tobiason for 3 more years and guys like Kiyan, and possibly White (doubtful) for 4 more years. Obviously some could possibly seek bigger bags elsewhere or go pro, but the possibility of mass retention for 3 or more years could be huge if GMAC proves his chops and the guys he’s brought in are the “right guys”. I think player development, building strong relationships, and retention of your key guys are the way to build in this NIL era when SU clearly can’t compete financially with the blue bloods. If they do it right and start winning the money will follow and we’ll be back in the mix as a top tear program.
Mets and Jets, dude. It’s the doublemint nightmare. That’s all I got to say.
We’ll see. A lot more to worry about here than people think.
I like that also. Saying that, I live in CT with a lot of UCzonn fans. When they struggled it was often for the need of a pure point guard
