[Cracked Sidewalks] Who Will Score?

I’m on the Jones hype train as well.  Not sure why he fell in the rankings.  The only thing I can think of is his height. People also seem to be high on him at MU and you hear the same leaks you did for Kam Jones last year.  Also,  he should get playing time as Brew said based on position alone. 

I like ultra quick athletic point guards.  Hopefully the hype train is real.

Sean Jones is ranked 87th by ESPN. So when the ESPN favors us, it is legit. Otherwise, rubbish.

Maybe Jones is Marquette’s Trey Burke

Sean Jones is ranked 87th by ESPN. So when the ESPN favors us, it is legit. Otherwise, rubbish.

ESPN's rankings are hit or miss, just like all the other recruiting rankings.

But when it comes to recruiting information, ESPN is woefully behind the other services.  Unless you're a blue blood.

So you think Jones is done improving?

I think much of it with position. Shaka has historically favored multiple ball handlers, which opens up more time for Jones than for someone like Ross that projects as more of a wing. It's not just watching them, but seeing who has the most clearly defined role in terms of team need.

I was not commenting on how good or how much Jones will improve. I just thought there was a disparity on this site when it came to how much time similarly ranked players will play. Shaka likes multiple point guards, but he also is big on length.

Today we wrap up the Who Will Score series by using our baseline 2022-23 projections and comparing them to the top players from 2021-22 in terms of minutes. Despite our projections indicating the top scorers won't match the volume output of Justin Lewis and Darryl Morsell, there are strong reasons for optimism that the offense will still be better on the whole. Let's calculate eFG%.
