Spent a bit of time with Thurl in Hartford after the debacle.  Enjoyed our conversation.

Brandon and Sacar will be the real deal this year.

I think Sacar averages double digits points and Bailey comes close.   Joey numbers.  Better defense, probably not as many rebounds.

And not as good of a passer, Joey dropped some dimes last year. But I'd take that trade off for the makeup of this year's team. More ball handlers so the passing from the 4 isn't as needed.

Fewer assists, but fewer turnovers.

Sounds like a very mature and well-grounded kid. And with his size and athletic ability, the sky is the limit.

Yeah, liked the nickname...they will be forced to change it within 5 years I am sure.

Yup.  And he isn’t your normal sophomore maturity wise.  I think he ends up being an all-timer at MU

He shouldn't be because he isn't your normal sophomore age wise. He turned 22 last spring.

When I think of MU "all timers" I think D Wade, Butch Lee, Meminger, Luke, GT, Jimmy Chones and Bo. Next tier Markus, Kojis, Tatum, JFB, Jae, T Smith and Travis. 3rd tier Dom, Wesley, Lazar, Whitehead and Jerel.

If BB ends up in tier 3 I'll be very happy - but to me that's not an MU "all timer".

FWIW, exercise caution with expectations. I'm also high on Bailey's ceiling, but Paint Touches noted...

"of the 28 players in the last 7 years to take a Mormon mission, only 2 saw a 'jump' up in their 2nd year back.

And of the 2 that were ranked in the top-150 coming out of high school, one actually saw a dip in year 2."

Yeah we will see about BB. Joey will end up with a better career when all is said and done IMO. Izzo will fix his defensive issues.

I'm not completely sold on either of them. Joey hit that wall hard and had very low self-awareness in that regard. Yes, Markus' usage increased and productivity plummeted in the end run of the season, but Joey's usage also increased and productivity also plummeted over the same timespan.

Comparing Joey and Bailey, I think Joey has a higher floor, but Bailey has a (significantly) higher ceiling. There are a number of things that, physically, Joey simply cannot do that Bailey can. And I don't think Joey is nearly as high-IQ of a player as Sam was, so it's not like he has that built-in advantage over other players that Sam does. Joey will be a good collegiate player, but I'm not convinced he'll ever be great.

How many of those 7 come from the stock of BB’s athletic parents?

So you're sticking you your "MU all timer" (Wade, Chones, Lee, etc.) prediction?

Not under your definition.  Jerel McNeal is our all time leading scorer...so he’s an all timer.  Markus is about to be.

I think this kid has the chance to be pretty special.

Is McNeal still an all timer when he is no longer the all time leading scorer?

He will be in the top 5 all time leading scorer for quite some time...so yes, an all timer.   Let’s not confuse all-timer with greatest or one of the greatest.  If people are misconstruing that, let me put that to bed right now.

Steve Novak is an all-timer at MU, I wouldn’t rate him in the top 15 best MU players.  Hopefully that adds some clarity.
