Jayden Ross Returning!!!

Ewekon said:
And then there's this. On the somewhat slim chance that Alex comes back, Ross will hardly see the floor. No, Ross doesn't play the 4; but that's 28 - 30 minutes not available.

Mullins barely mentioned in this thread. Ross is not taking his minutes whether he (Mullins) is 6th man or starts.

5) 40 mins no matter how much Reed plays.
4) 40 mins Alex + ???. Definitely not Ross.
3)Stewart, Mullins 30 mins
2) Ball 25, Mullins slides 5
1) Demary 30

Granted, this is kind of a mess. Alex is the key to Ross' minutes. As above has 170 of 200 minutes taken. If it understates Ball and overstates Mullins, it's a wash. Danny's getting a backup PG. He does not want Ross there. Adams and Furphy ????

No way Solo plays just 25.
 
I'm glad to hear Ross is back. I'm of the position that he'll have to fight to hit the floor but I think he has the potential - we saw some glimmers, right? Some of this depends on Alex, portal, and just how good this incoming class is. My hunch is we're going to see more freshman playing than some here think.

Good job, now the idiots will jump on a comment I made before actually watching Cam and ignore this one before the season which pretty much nailed exactly how the season went. (With BigErn laughing at the thought we could’ve possibly have been better)

Not sure why everyone is so upset at you, that is an elite take.

LOL! This is a post of yours from the Cam transfer thread, where you were arguing with everyone that we should let Ross/Stewart/Ball (as freshmen) replace Hawkins and didn’t need Cam.

Honestly though, Ball has played well when starting this year and playing a good amount last year. I'm not saying Cam wasn't needed but the thought process is not horrid there.
 
In this day and age, I guess it is always good when one of your recruits actually decides to stay in your program. I’m not sure what better options Ross would have had though if he wanted to play on an elite team. Hurley sees him in practice everyday. He must see things that he is capable of doing that we haven’t seen at all over the past two years. I hope that he is able to figure things out.

And you’re worried about what genetics could do with pathogens? Natural selection hasn’t been doing a great job either.

The Boneyard definitely has a survival of the fittest theme. Ask anyone who you haven't seen posting in a while.

As for natural selection - The Boneyard has been around since Aug 1998, and we've grown every year since day one. Darwin would have had a chapter in his book about The Boneyard.

Excited to see what leaps the Sophomores make to Junior year (Stewart and Ross) since that is typically the best leap. Solo was special rising from Frosh to Soph with a great leap, so hope he gets even better!

Gonna be great to see which Freshmen step up immediately.

No it’s not irrational.

Just for me personally, it’s annoying seeing our fans constantly be so quick to write off and recruit over these talented players.

The other way to look at it is having the expectation he’s ready to make that leap and put trust in him is a great way to give him the confidence he needs to make that leap and be the player he can be.

Him making that leap is better than any transfer we can bring in.

You are precious

So, how much is our bet?? I’m still waiting

If you aren’t willing to put your money where your mouth is, then you really need to shut up

Like I said I’m willing to do any wagers.

The staff playing a low ranked freshman (no matter what reports say) and not play the junior they spent a year talking about would be completely off pattern.

Hurley does seniority. Ross is going to play and most likely start if we don’t add someone from the portal. And we’ll all end up happy for it.

I’d be shocked if Furphy didn’t get the same minutes as Abraham and a freshman Jayden Ross.

And it has nothing to do with how good I think he is or isn’t and everything to do with that he’s a freshman.

Seriously on what planet is ross starting? Reed karaban stewart mullins solo ga transfer. If karaban is gone who is ross replacing? I hope he improves and certainly can but he has brought little to the actual games over 2 years.

I was wondering, it was kinda quiet on the announcements . I think Ross will be better next season.

Well he’s got to be better.

I can’t remember him impacting any game. Maybe he did here and there with some good defensive stops and a couple of shots here and there - but he’s got to improve next year and expect him to.

If there is one thing Hurley and staff might do a just a little better is leave guys in for a bit longer to see if they can “play through“ the rough patches or leave them in if they are playing well.

That Florida game? End of Seton Hall game? Would have been great to call someone off bench that was fresh, ready to go that would have either been that defensive stopper or been able to handle the rock under pressure.
 
I think Ross’s floor next season is us all appreciating impactful minutes off the bench. Of course I want to see him succeed so I’m routing for this.
 
Glad we retained Ball, Reed, Stewart and Ross. I do think it will be an uphill battle for Ross to get more than 10 minutes per game with the team's depth at the wing positions. Mullins looks like he could be very impactful, for example.

I’m gonna give Dan Hurley the benefit of the doubt on Ross and hope that an offseason and new year bring him to the accolades he was getting. Excited to see what he brings this year. Great kid.
