That plus some back-to-the-basket moves. Pritchard would've never been a face-up player, but I remember he showed some flashes of decent footwork in the post in his freshman year. It magically disappeared later in his collegiate career. Our guards were never good at feeding the post, so whatever the skillset he brought to IU became useless I guess.

Yes, that could've been contributing factor. I remember it was said he came back from summer vacation overweight after his freshman season?

He’ll be back for his last season of eligibility next season. We could really use him this year, he’s by far the best player that left IU during Crean’s tenure. I've always felt Maurice Creek was the best player to leave IU during Crean's tenure. I didn't know about Holt getting injured. Thanks for the info.

jblaz13 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Fair enough. Even at an injury diminished level he still would've been a better leader than anyone on the 2013-14 team , and a better shooter than all but Yogi once his shot started to come back around.. I'd have taken him over Evan Gordon, and Stan Robinson any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s definitely an argument to be made that he was the best transfer of the Crean era. He had a pretty good season at George Washington, leading the team in scoring with 14 ppg and shooting 40% from three. Led them to their only tournament appearance in the last decade too. Shame that he left, we could have really used him that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier987 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Where is Rob Vaden? He was good. He turned out to be a beast for UAB. I still remember when he dropped around 40 points as UAB upset UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a great stroke and his love for Mike Davis is legendary, but he never struck me as one that trained very hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe ole Pete will get a chance to strut his stuff in the NBA after all !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the roster link: http://sfccmoroadrunners.com/sports/mbkb/2017-18/roster Not there. He is on the stats page: http://sfccmoroadrunners.com/sports/mbkb/2017-18/teams/statefaircommunitycollege?view=profile&r=0&pos=sh On his individual page: http://sfccmoroadrunners.com/sports/mbkb/2017-18/players/grantgelonk8yq Last three games before the 3 DNP's, he scored 5, 3 & 0 points. My suspicion...his shooting went way south and he ended up quitting. Maybe because he was told he was going to the bench? No idea if this impacts his transfer to MIssouri State next year, but piecing the story together, it looks a little ominous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Jeff Goodman tweeted out back in September, that Grant would be transferring to Missouri State University in Springfield, Missouri. And would have to sit out a year. And the Springfield newspaper even ran a story based on Goodman's tweet, that Gelon would eventually be transferring to MSU. He's not listed on their roster. So it remains to be seen, if he transferred or not. In the meantime, I see that SFCC does have one player from "The Region". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just reading between the lines, it looks like he experienced a little adversity and bailed on the program after having some earlier success and starting.
