Looks like there are just different qualifying numbers. The NCAA website has a higher qualifying metric.

ESPN has guys on their list that shot 30-40 attempts. Not exactly a large sample size.

I tend to agree that 35% or better is a good shooter at decent volume.

'I tend to agree that 35% or better is a good shooter at decent volume.'
overall, rj shot 3s at .386 on around 100 shots, and jalen shot .362 on around 50 shots.
so we agree that those 2 are good 3 pt shooters, right?
jmoney will continue to dramatically improve, like he did from last season to this one.

Anything over 35% is good....Can't expect to have many guys like that on a team. Lucky to have one.

wrong list, there's plenty of 40% 3 pt shooters out there. baylor had 3 guys above 40% and 2 other guys above 39%.

even if 35% is your magical number my point stands: of hurley's 13 signed recruits only 2 shot over 35% from 3 plus hawk is expected to. 3 out of 13 is not good.

with cole at 38% and gaff at 36% you think we had enough 3 pt shooting last year? certainly not and adding 1 more isnt enough

What's wrong with Diggins?

His body, shiftiness, and breakdown ability is BAdams level. I don't see the quickness needed to break his man down. His athleticism nothing special. His shooting is so-so with a low release point, and his defense not good. He is basically BAdams and Eric Ayala combined into one player.

Compare these point guards to the ones we had under Calhoun and you tell me which one of them you would take over what we had before. None. I would take Jalen Adams over our current group of point guards too.

i (for one?) fully expect jalen to get at, or over, 40% next season.

You're talking about the consensus top 50 recruit who was by far the best player in Pennsylvania and was the captain of one of the best high school teams in the country for multiple years right? The one that we beat out Villanova to get? Dear God, get some help.

If you want to edit this, I’ll remind you. He’s not a NJ PG

his 'magic' is a direct function of his outstanding and highly superior bball iq.
his body is more than adequate to accomplish the things his brain tells him to do.
listen closely to coach geno's evaluation for paige as it mostly centers on her unique ability to see things ahead of the rest of us mere mortals.
here's an audio of paigebrain dialogue:
'if they do this, then they'll prolly do that next. i'll just saunter over there, and steal that pass when they do that.'
will rasool continue to be that when he moves up to a faster paced game? idk for certain, but i highly expect it as brains travel very well.

We did not beat out Nova. They prioritized a 3 star recruit in Brizzi over him despite Sool being iterally in their backyard.

Hopefully, Sool outplays my expectations of him. I don’t see him being what we need at the highest level.

Paige was the number 1 recruit out of high school. That’s a big difference.

Sool is a high IQ player but I don’t see breakdown ability, body is awkward, defense is not the best and his motor is unremarkable.

It's hard to take player analysis seriously from the guy that thinks Polley is Reggie Miller and is the answer to every problem. He is a top 65 player basically everywhere. Does that guarantee anything? Of course not, but I will take their opinion over random message board guy any day.

I’m pretty sure he’s like 12 years old.

So basically, what you're saying is that Sool's motor is like your opinion of him. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I think it's more than just the numbers. Historically our point guards weren't always the complete player, didn't always have the gaudy numbers but they had something that couldn't be quantified. KEA, Talik, Kemba, Bazz all had it. Their games weren't complete when they came into the program. Sool being a captain of a winning high school program is a piece of the package. Outside of RJ, this program is void of leadership. This is what is going to put us over the edge instead of folding like a cheap suit when RJ leaves the game after hitting his head on the floor.

I trust Dan Hurley in this one. It's not going to be pretty at first but I think the tools are there.
 
Give Sool two years with Coach Mike to work on building his body up and working on his explosion/fast twitch muscles.

Has got the rest of the package that you want in a PG
 
Just look at the last few years of the players who were MVP of the PCL to see the level of high school conference Diggins has been playing in. Ryan Daly was MVP, Isaiah Wong was MVP, Collin Gillespie was MVP and Diggins was MVP....twice.

Well the good news is to hear this from you I feel much better about his abilities now. He's not even a Jersey guard and you can't find anything good about him, so I'm guessing he's going to make an impact on or program immediately. Thanks for the confidence boost!
 
Has Locke completed all his Zoom calls? Any idea how his call with UConn went?

You probably would have given the same scouting report on Shabazz Napier, and added in a shot at his height.
