I really liked what I saw in Copeland's highlights and always thought we could use him in addition to JJ so I'm not sure that was an issue. Who knows if Copeland will be able to handle the point at SU's level but I think his floor as a player overall is pretty high. He reminds me a little of Kadary though I think Kadary was a much better ball handler than we expected. Hopefully Copeland will be also.

He has the most upside of our recruits

I just really struggle to see how someone watches this and lists him as a 3 star. Maybe he’s just the prototypical highlight player and does nothing otherwise, but kid really looks like he has a high ceiling.

Yeah, longer clips like this are way better than looking at highlights or workouts. He's going to be a terrific guard for us. I know Joe will be here, but I don't see how Joe doesn't move to the off guard.

Look at that drive/dish at the 1:30 mark.
3 star my a55.

I thought about who I might compare Copeland to at this stage...as a recruit.
Frank Howard came to mind... 4 star//.96 24//////7 composite score.
I loved Frank as a freshman, but then it seemed things were kind of downhill from there.
I think Copeland MIGHT be better?

Frank's problem wasn't so much talent. It was mental. I do think Quadir is better.

Best recruit since Kadary

Crazy looking back at Frank... if he could’ve put it all together he could’ve been real good for us.

Copeland must know Paddy.

They worked at the same malt shop.

Yea, Quadir seems way more athletic than Frank, who was an average athlete. Quadir also seems more crafty than Frank at getting into the lane. Frank obviously proved to be a very good shooter, hopefully Quadir gets there.

Frank became an ok shooter tbh. He was 32-33 pct at his best. Given Quadir's game that should be more than adequate and maybe he can be even a little better.

Frank did have a nice run at one point where for a stretch of games he was our best 3pt shooter.

Alas - he was his own worst enemy, and also had some untimely injuries, so he never put it all together.
And then, POOF! he gone.

True.. he had some stretches for sure.. really good then putrid.

On another note Frank seems to be a pretty talented dude and big into Art. Different dude it always seemed and makes sense. He is on Instagram fyi.

The player in the middle (with arms crossed) looks a whole lot like Ron Artest.

 

[GooseMutt]

Copeland is gonna be a beast when he gets some minutes and confidence. He’s a big Philly boy getting ready to go Philly on his opponents. His heart, loyalty and love for Cuse could evolve into something special.

If this happens will soften the blow of losing Dion and JJ.
