SLU_Nick Posted May 12 Posted May 12 Great fit and a defensive stopper. I’m kind of in love with this roster right now. Dr. Holly Hills, ACE, GoSluBills and 4 others 7 Quote
almaman Posted May 12 Posted May 12 should be no challenge for Guy Phillips to say his name pakapablo 1 Quote
ACE Posted May 12 Posted May 12 Now we got the starting guard we needed!!! Based on numbers and video, I liked him a little better than Roddie. Wiz, which guard is better according to your computer? MusicCityBilliken and SLUMedBilliken15 2 Quote
Crewsorlose Posted May 12 Posted May 12 Can be the tip of the spear on defense, run the offense, has the athleticism to finish at the rim against better teams. I see him as a more athletic, less-skilled version of Tre Jones (?) who was the 8th/9th man on some of the Goodwin teams. He clearly wants to play on a winning team and is less concerned about showing some skills against lower comp. Nice pickup. Quote

GoSluBills Posted May 12 Posted May 12 He and Swope will complement each other nicely in the back court. Really nice pickup. Let’s grab a backup center and one other piece and win some games! Quote

TheA_Bomb Posted May 12 Posted May 12 According to the STL PD article he has a 6'8 wingspan and he's 210 lbs. That's some beef at the Guard position. According to KenPom he improved to .381 on 3 in Conference play (8-21) so he's not a volume shooter. He was #3 in the nation in Fouls Commited for 40min at 1 compared to Jimmerson who was #1 in the A10 at 1.2. Zink 1 Quote

I know mizzou has been doing some of that. They have more than 13 scholarship guys, some are just NIL scholarships. Didn't seem to work too well for then though. Quote

If he can fill the Goodwin role in every aspect other than offensively we will be a force to be reckoned with. Any offense from him is just a bonus for real Quote

So I assume Schertz does believe he can be a scoring threat. Idk. cgeldmacher and HoosierPal 2 Quote
