If he stays healthy - or preferably, gets healthier - Greg can have a big role next season.
Given all he has been through, Greg has had a nice season. He's had some clunkers, sure, but he's also come up huge in some of our best wins - Creighton, St. John's, UNC. I'm seeing leadership skills emerge, and a lot more confidence. I find myself talking to the TV, saying: "Run a play to get Greg open at the arc." I WANT him to shoot. And he's even showing some ability to get to the rim. Even his D has improved.
I'm not talking about a 30 mpg starter next season. Ideally, he'd come off the bench to be our version of Vinny Johnson, our Microwave - several 3-5 minute stretches hitting 3s, stretching the floor, playing D, being a leader.
If DJ, Dawson and Justin return, Greg can be a very valuable role player on a team with 3 soph/junior standouts, a couple of talented freshmen and hopefully a good transfer or two.
Very proud of the young man for overcoming a lot of adversity and contributing to the program.
