Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 1668808, member: 40"] Not based upon the games I've watched. Instead, what I would say is that St. Joe's has a group of D1 caliber prospects, many of whom look to shoot / score. As SoBe mentions above, their other guard is a gunner. So Battle is the top player, but he's a guy who can fit into the offensive concept without having to dominate the ball. He'll probably do better in a more structured offense, frankly. When I saw him play against that nationally ranked team from Utah, it was actually frustrating to see St. Joe's down two, and then to have random guys jacking up shots every possession over the last few minutes of the game, when the team should have looked for Battle to get the ball and make something happen in crunch time. Please note that Battle doesn't shy away from the ball/ shooting, just that it is tough to shoot when the offense makes one pass and then the shot goes up. [/QUOTE]
