Message: [QUOTE="Mr. French, post: 5114072, member: 2292"] By the way, I’ll say this: anyone who watches ball would know a guy with his tools has the CHANCE to develop. Every kid at 17-18 is at a different stage. No one knows how a player will develop. But anyone thinking the kid couldn’t dribble, or play 2, or was permanently entrenched on the bench just because of his frosh performances in garbage time on an all-time great team doesn’t think beyond the base level or doesn’t know sports. The Boneyard is also peak “prisoner of the moment.” 3 days ago every post was about how unknown he is and probably Hurley was lying about him being good, just to motivate others. Now, 5 minutes after a good performance in a 40 point win vs New Hampshire, he’s more athletic than anyone in our program history and he’s a lottery pick. Maybe slow down and view the big picture. All these kids are consistently developing, and some at different rates. [/QUOTE]
