Good perimeter defense topping the list, which is an area the team needs to improve and adding another reliable 3-point shooter. He even has decent assist numbers, which we're going to need a secondary playmaker with JG's departure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I’m all in on Mckissic to SLU. He’s the perfect fit for what we need in terms of ballhandling, playmaking and perimeter defense Littlebill likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUBillsFan Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 For McKissic, I think it depends upon whether it will be a good fit in terms of his expectations. He would absolutely be a good addition for SLU and fill a need, but he's not going to get the keys to the offense for 1 season especially with Yuri running point and Perkins coming back. He can be a stud on D for us and an excellent shooting guard / backup PG to Yuri. Good news for us is that none of the power conference teams will give him keys to the offense either.

BACKHANDtheRICAN Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Why don’t we just land a few 6’8” - 6’10” beasts that can fill the middle, run the floor, and one of them with a jumper. I dunno. I think this would fill a lot of needs on our team. billiken_roy likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchise_08 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Need a second shooter to compliment Perkins so McKissic would help, plus he can defend. Needs to pick up for GJ and whatever happened to his shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I mean if the coach forces his players to stand on the baseline and just scream at the offense, it would be a detriment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianstl Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Another name to maybe keep an eye on is Chris Shelton formerly of Hampton. A high percentage and high volume 3 point shooter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
