Nice work tomcat. I think those are excellent comparisons.
I think reasonable expectations could be drawn by looking at the sophomore stats of the comparison group. Often times there is a progression of roles and responsibilities and it looks like Grant will be following right in the normal SU way. In his soph season he will be the 2nd man with top honors going to CJ, just like most of the others.
I think Grant has huge upside potential, Hak-like. But I don't know that we will see it at SU. This new strategy we have now seems to allow/encourage the blossoming and leaving of big time talent. In a way it is a little sad. But I think it might be 50/50 that Grant will leave, continuing in the line of Fab, Dion, and MCW. If he improves the way I think he will, the trajectory of improvement will highlight his huge potential and possibly make him lottery worthy without having nearly the college careers of his other comparable comrades.
No need to get too worked up about it though because this new strategy has Roberson and McCollough ready to reload.
I agree. I think the biggest people are not considering is Jerami was the youngest player on this year's team by 2 years! This is the reason people think he may be growing he is young enough where it is still possible. If compare him to his age bracket than he is a potential lottery pick next year. He would have been a Micky this year if he was in HS like most players his age.
