GMac was much higher rated. I think he was a better shooter and had a better handle coming out of HS. But I can see the comparison. I hope JG3 has a GMac type career. I think he has that potential.So what is the difference between freshman GMAC and freshman JG3? It seems to me JG3 is a more well rounded scorer at this point in their games.

Lol I'm sorry I gotta good laugh outta this.. as much as I shouldn'tUmm, that would be Frank. And we all know how that will work out.
dude, you really think buddy isn't gonna start next year?
i guess my problem with the jalen carey DNP's this season is that if you as head coach truly think he's so bad that he's gonna cost you a victory if he plays even 5 minutes with a double digit lead then maybe this is a guy you don't truly believe in and probably shouldn't even have on your team. jalen will be a sophomore in grade and yet a basically a frosh when it comes to game play next year. i don't get the lack of confidence.
and you're beating his down rather than building it up.
Great post. I would always place Offensive skills first. Defense requires less skill. Hustle, effort, desire can get it done on D as you dont need to handle the ball or shoot. You could take 5 great athletes from other sports and field a great defense. Take those same 5 great athletes and try playing offense with them.We’ve gone after athletes for years and they can’t shoot into the ocean from 3. Battle included. MCW before him. It’s part of the reason we’re in this mess to begin with.
Complaining about a freshman averaging 8ppg in conference play is a little weird.
In fact his defensive metrics have him defending better than Battle this year and on par with Howard
Getting guys who can actually put the ball in the hoop from 25 feet is a breath of fresh air considering we’ve been seeing it against us for 10 years and is exactly how Villanova won their titles.
That's why they're going to Italy next year. Perfect team for a trip.
JB likes long armed athletes to play the zone. It usually doesn't help shooters. The longer your arms the better chance you can have for a mechanical flaw in your shooting. This might explain why SU has been consistently poor foul shooters. The more compact your shooting stroke is the better chance you are a good shooter. I’m sure there are exceptions, but generally I think it’s true. Ask weight lifters if long arms help in lifting weights? Mechanics are a big part of good shooters.
It's as simple as they don't emphasize free throws in practice like other teams do. Other teams have long arms and manage just fine.Curious if any of that is true. Long arms might make it more challenging in things like bench press because you have to move the weight a longer distance, but probably more favorable for things like deadlifting.

If only we had some idea about what actually goes on in SU's practices.It's as simple as they don't emphasize free throws in practice like other teams do. Other teams have long arms and manage just fine.

It seems like he'd be handed the keys next year and should therefore not be thinking about transferring, but I also would definitely not be surprised if he did. He's been totally blacklisted this year, even with absolutely pathetic PG play in front of him. I know that wouldn't make me happy, so I can't imagine him being all that happy about it either.
tre jones picked us up backcourt last night with token pressure. be nice to add that wrinkle to the zone.I think we should utilize the depth we will have in the backcourt and press more often, even if token pressure just to shave a few seconds off the shot clock before falling back into the zone. A lot of times, one man pressuring whoever is bringing the ball up can be pain in the butt and get under the skin of the offensive player.

Well, he has started this year, and the 2 guys ahead of him will be gone. Elijah is not a guard.No, I think Buddy will excel as the third guard. He's not quite athletic enough yet. Give him another year of strength and conditioning.
