You can surround him with some shooters (if you go this route you need to have a hella of shooter at the other guard spot. He definitely has handles and great vision…shot needs to get tighter but like I said…coach him up on good shot selection and partner him with a great pick n roll partner and couple of shooters…he will be fine. just stop with the 40% 3 pt shooting. It barely exists. There were 37 40% 3pt shooters and above in all of D1 college last year. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 (edited) So... we asked Walker to reschedule (which it seems like he's going to), so we could guarantee a chance to meet with Hickman. I think that's smart. We don't technically have to hate EVERYTHING. Edited April 2 by btownqb 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta wonder if Woodson told Hatfield we're not going to be an inside out team next year and that's why Hatfield ran away? Hatfield would have done extremely well under the system that Woodson put forth the last three years. I have no proof but I think Hatfield declining his visit most likely means Woodson and staff are actually changing the type of basketball we're going to play next year. Additionally, Woodson going to Hickman's house supports the idea that they're changing the offense next year. Why else would he? Hickman has all the evidence to suggest his shooting and abilities wouldn't be utilized correctly based on the history of our offense. If you're going to Hickman's house you're selling him on something different and telling him he's going to be part of that change. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didnt decline a meeting. He had one set up for after the off period, which means he did have interest. I'm pretty sure he just found another team. I think he has a top three right now.

I think the hope is that he setup the meeting thinking we were keeping the same offense and going to run a big man next to reneau again. And then he cancelled it when finding out Woodson is changing things up and we really only have a backup center spot available.

The schools he's interested are UConn, Louisville, NC State and Pittsburgh. All need a scoring ready big next year and all their starting bigs are either Seniors this year or going to be drafted. Seeing that Malik is going to be our scoring big I don't believe Hatfield saw himself getting the ball enough to score. Hatfield is also not coming off the bench. Also, we need a shot blocking big and Hatfield only averaged 0.8 per game which is slightly better than Malik.

I think this is plausible, with no more bigs than we have contacted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crean's offense was pretty damn good, especially 2011-2013. It was defense, the injury to Hulls and Tommy Too Tan's inability to adjust for Syracuse's zone that bit us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maedhros Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Jeff Borzello reports we've contacted Adou Thiero from Kentucky. Big guard who I think we gave a solid look at as a prep recruit, but he went from unranked to popping for Kentucky very quickly. Projected as a draft pick a year from now, so Woody may have some appeal here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
