Not familiar with that name. Can someone help?

Cody is a senior-to-be at West DePere HS (GreenBay area).  He is 6'8", runs the court well and is a very good outside shooter.  Creighton is very interested in him.

Nice to see a coach value the 3 point shot. Go get him Wojo!

[Skatastrophy]

How many paint touches does he average per game? Deflections?

He could be our Kyle Syngler.  Yes Im serious

[GOO]

Good, we should be bringing in guys every other year that are probably 4 year players with upside.  They don't have to make an immediate impact (and I don't know, maybe he is an impact player as a freshman, but I doubt it).  A guy that can pay PF that can run and shoot and can compliment other players.  Can't build a team off these guys, but they should be sprinkled in and can help open it up for some stud wings.

He could also be our Christian Laettner, Cherokee Parks, Mike Dunleavy, Greg Paulus, or Jon Scheyer. No, Im not serious.

This. I think it is very difficult to have sustained success in college bball without deliberately utilizing the 3 point shot.

Three Creighton picks at the end of February, and a UW pick yesterday.  Would not mind this pick up one bit.

We do not agree with your statement.

Kentucky utilized the three never before.  What are you saying??

Sure, there are exceptions. You could argue that MU has enjoyed sustained success without featuring the 3 point shot.

That's why I said very difficult, not impossible.

They were only middle of the pack with 203 3PM, duh.

Quantity over quality for MDDG.

And Wojo did say there would be an emphasis on player development. As long as his idea of development isn't to tear them down and re-build them, ala Brent, then this kid would be a very good fit.

Every team utilizes the 3 point shot in some form.  They didn't rely upon it.  Their mantra was to pound the ball inside to their bigs and score in the paint.

Good thinking. Let's compare Marquette to UK getting 5 top 15 recruits who can't shoot. Sure, if you can lead the nation in rebounding, then the 3 pointer isn't as necessary. Marquette won't be getting 3 McD All-American front court players....all of which will likely be in the NBA.

The question needs to be rephrased in terms of utilizing the 3 point shot.  Are we referring to a team that lives and dies by the 3 point shot like Creighton?  I think that was the intent.  I honestly, don't want a team that plays this way.  This type of style rarely makes deep tournament runs.

I think we hit three three point shots in last 1:30 to beat Davidison. Not a good three point shooting team, but we hit the shots. O-22 against Uconn when we hit three to send game in overtime. Even bad three point shooting teams need to hit threes.

That's the type of team that chokes away a 16 point lead against Washington with 5 minutes left in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

That team may have been the smallest MU team ever.  I remember looking on KenPOM and sorting the teams out by height.  MU was the smallest team out of all the power conferences, by far, at the time.  No low post presence, really, nor a guy who could create his own shot off the dribble.

And this ADHD moment on three point shooting and Kentucky was brought to you by...

Any news on this Schwartz kid?  It is the topic of the thread, right?

Here's Sandy going at him
