Class of 2018 PF Bryce Golden (MD) to Butler

[gilardino]

Does golden have any other visits scheduled?

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Can’t let him leave campus without a commitment

That could be illegal

 

[Jake]

Mike Waters posted new video of him. Very nice looking stroke. Quick high release...doesn't always get his lower body squared up.

Aggressive around the rim. Lots to like.

If he’s anything like his brother, he’s going to be a pain for opponents to play against.

Doesn’t appear to, which bodes well for us

The upside for this kid is Luke Maye and Maye is a great great college player.

He sticks out his lead (right) foot on the jumper. Looks odd.

Tim? Tim Abromaitis?

You mean the fat white kid that could only score against us?

Yep the kid who averaged 18 and 10 and was a regional MOP two years ago only could score against us.

I was thinking the same thing. I won courtside tix's to watch Richmond play Wake Forest and his brother was the best player on the court that game. Fair warning though, his brother also sweats like Buzz Williams so you so you may want to stay at least 10 feet away from Bryce at all times if he is also like his brother in that regard too.

I really liked that highlight tape.

- Kid was knocking down 3's all over the floor, so he's not just comfortable from 1-2 spots (like Lydon).
- He was the perfect pick and roll option with the PG. This is something we desperately need.
- Better athlete than other videos I've seen of him. Still not sure he would play a ton of wing minutes, but then again, he's not big enough to play the 5. He could definitely improve his quickness, and doesn't seem to have the lankiness we're used to.
- Seemed to be able to handle a bit and get to the rim, though I'm not sure how much he'd do that in college.
- An offensive minded inside-outside threat would be such a welcome addition.
- Kind of reminded me of Kansas State's Dean Wade (though a few inches shorter) or a poor man's Michael Young (Pitt). Luke Maye is a good comp, too.
- He is totally the type that would eat the zone up. Good rebounder that can hit inside and out. If he's a good passer, then I'd HATE playing against this dude.
- OFFENSE OFFENSE OFFENSE. If this kid is capable on that end as shown in the highlights, I'm 100% on board.

really looking forward to this commitment.

 

[SU Dreaming]

From what i understand he plans on making other visits, could change, maybe he does commit this weekend, but highly doubt it

Sit down in your thinking chair and think...think...think?

[SUOrangeSU]

Only thing I worry is..those other programs may have more immediate playing time for him but we're the obvious high major in the group.

 

[JazzNC]

You beat me to it... good sign!!!

 

[FreakTalksAboutSU]

The rivals site linked within that tweet is so damn out of date, it has a school named High Point (???) listed as one he has "medium" interest in.

 

[reedny]

Bet he doesn't make it 2 days past this weekend w/out cancelling his other visits.

Golden was at Dinosaur today with his parents, Coach Boeheim, GMAC and Autry. Tried to send over the High Times Special (rack of ribs and a bottle of Dom Perignon), but apparently they don’t have that on the menu anymore...well, that and I’m sure we would end up on probation for 5 years if I had.
