Marquette vs. Norfolk State -- PLEASE UPDATE SCORE HERE

[ErickJD08]

It's the 4th game on his soph year. Most frosh. have more downs than ups.

I think expectations from some of you guys are just a little skewed.

He's a nice player with good potential.

Very true. He was a five star kid.  I was expecting that he would comfortable with a layup and he is not. Great defense though. Got to him him that

Despite his issues, he made some nice plays toward the end of the game.  He fought through it, which is something he didn't do last year.

You will enjoy watching him more if you just forget his high school stuff. None of that matters. None. Zero.

Just watch him now, and see what you think. I think he's a pretty good soph. with potential to be a very good college player.

No he didn't. I don't call pickin up a loose ball and passing it to someone for a dunk a nice play. And his defense isn't that great. D wilson's defense is way better. Keep making excuses for him, he's a below average player. He may be a slightly above average player by his senior year.

How about the pass to Gardner to give us the lead again?  Or are you just one of those people who will never give credit to Blue?

He is ok. It is just frustrating to see how much he struggles on offense:finishing around the basket, shooting, and decision making. I see the physical ability but the offensive skill is so low.

I fully acknowledge that he's a bit of an enigma. No doubt.

However, it seems like a lot of people are silent when he plays well, and LOVE piling on when he doesn't.

No one was lighting it up tonight; Blue will be just fine, and I suspect Buzz had him in at the end for a reason.  It was a bad game all around, and the best thing to do is move on and don't look back.

I'll give credit where credit is due. The kid is really athletic. He just doesn't know how to use it yet. Around this time last year, I would have never thought Junior would be a better offensive player than Blue but he is. Hopefully, he just keeps at. he is going to continue to frustrate me because he is no where remotely close to how good he could be.

You're right... but neither is Jamil Wilson, Jamail Jones or even Gardner (who still looks lost on defense).

I just hate to see several people pile on a kid who is 4 games into his soph. year. We are smarter than that. We know player develop at different rates.

C'mon people.

Part of that is the fact that he hasn't been a model citizen at MU (understatement of the year) and is hard to root for, in all honesty.

Save it!! And I hope this was your last post here, D'bag.

I guess I get that...

If he was scoring 40pts per game, he'd probably be "forgiven".

I guess that's just life.
