Kolek planning to go pro
Tournament is a crapshoot
you’re a crap shoot
You not being aware they were ready for those roles because you never watched them play is much different from them actually not being prepared. There’s nothing wrong with not seeing them play, but saying they weren’t ready just because doesn’t make much sense to me.
Especially after a few coffees
I would say that I would be most excited if Oso was an incoming transfer. He had big jump last year, with a late season fade, but until Feb most were very high on him. I expect him to be the most improved going into next season. He has a lot to work with and has some size, which is a good combo to work with.
He played off the ball his freshman year and did enough to earn A10 freshman of the year. He can do both, but his skillset is better suited off the ball.
So, your position essentially comes down to saying his performance in the Big East last year matters less than what he did two years ago against much inferior competition.Not buying that. And definitely not buying that his skillset is better suited off the ball. Everything we saw from his last year says the opposite.
So much doom and gloom on scoop. Omax will be better then Lewis!
What makes you think so, JB? As I said last year, to my eye EE looked like a guy suited for pickup ball at the Rec. What are people seeing that make them think he can make the jump to productive BE player?
The people that scouted him said that if he could develop a 3pt jumper to keep people honest and focused on one sport rather than both basketball and football, he could destroy as a score- first slashing pg. Also projected him as a future 2nd rounder in 2024 (247 scouts).I think the shot is coming around due to a year working on it. He's fast, stronger and most importantly, tall. I think we see more this year of what those scouts saw then
Cmon emarion ellis on draft boards? Are you serious ?
Maybe question the source that was referenced instead. When someone is projected as a 2nd round pick 3 years out of course take it with a massive grain of salt. With that being said, it doesn’t make sense to discount that kind of upside either.

He was a scrambling quarterback that really saw the field well. I figured if he could channel that athletic ability in football to basketball something good would come of it.

I hope that come to fruition. I don't see it, but hope I am wrong.
There are going to be multiple players on this team that take big leaps this year. Get excited
