T Mayo...

[Freeport Warrior]

More than just a shooter - he a scorer on a team that really needs one.

Exactly. A pure scorer. Work him into rotation. IMO significant upgrade from Lockett -- not even close. I also think he doesn't get credit for his D, which was just as solid as Vander's last year. Finally, some good news!

More than just a shooter - he a scorer on a team that really needs one.

A confident scorer at that.  Jamil is a scorer, but doesn't have his sea legs under him to feel like he can take over.  Adding Mayo to Blue and whoever the player du jour that steps up in addition can do nothing but help our offense.

Oh yeah, and he plays a lot better D than Jake Thomas, which goes a long way too (not a shot at Jake... more of a compliment to how much I enjoyed watching Mayo play on D).

Good for Todd.  I was just about to start a thread asking if anyone had heard any updates on his situation.

We could use another scorer and someone to improve the talent around the spot that Lockett is occupying. (I have not been impressed with him so far this season)

good for Todd, this team will be improved (not that we were bad anyway) with him back.

That's actually the part I'm not sold on.

We all talk about it like he's Novak. He's more like Jerel as a junior.

He's a career 33% 3pt shooter and shot 25% in conf. play.

I hope he's improved, and can fill the shooter's role.

Mayo can't hurt that offense, but I agree, Guns. He didn't just have a little slump last season, he completely fell apart. He's a year older now and hopefully a year wiser. I'm hoping for the best but I am not expecting the next O.J. Mayo.

"Did great on my finals, one more to go which is an easy one.

Here's hoping it's not a "trap final".

Great news.  Congratulations Todd!  We need your quickness, defense and shooting!

[BCHoopster]

Todd will take Jake Thomas minutes and possibly in the near future minutes from #22, I see 20-25 minutes a game then.  I wonder if he stayed in shape and was able to use the
Al Center or did he go over to Helfaer Center to practice?

IWB says its not a slam dunk on his board.
