Silas Demary; another great interview

[dennismenace]

Looks and sounds like a highly motivated and thoughtful leader.

Silas is a very heads-up player. Well-spoked, gets it. Bigger believer in helping others than himself.

I am starting to dislike the "physicality of the Big East" being said so much. Probably hits on Silas like comparisons to Tristen Newton bc it dismisses him as an individual and you think the SEC is less physical than the Big East?

That was probably the best interview by a college player I've ever witnessed. He's well spoken and his answers were very substantive. He's going to be a very good leader for this team.

There was another interview back in the spring where I got that impression also. Very mature and well spoken kid. Here it is if you missed it.

He's more substantive than our head coach was honestly, though I suspect that is intentional from Hurley. Cards close to the vest

Can’t wait to see this guy in action for us.

He is an extremely likeable kid.

Its funny though, for all the comparisons to Tristen, I think Demary uttered more words in that interview than I heard from Tristen his entire two years here.

One of Newton’s charms is his quiet disposition. The constant smile with killer instincts. Great kid.

After 45 years?

Silas is made for the media. He has such a positive demeanor. I said it before, the horde is going to love him.

Yeah and I don’t know why we are sticking to the belief that the Big East is the most physical league.

Tarris may be the biggest beast at the 5 in the conference as no more Sorber, Dixon, Etc. Maybe St. John’s has some bruisers bc Pitino but the others in the league - not buying it.

With Maheney let’s call it what it was - slight frame, a little too ‘artistic’ with the ball and not the bbiq to know all the plays and freely operate. Like say a C- as a lead guard and definitely not a 3 level scorer nor assist king. Twice could not even get the ball across the line. Was not “could not handle the physicality of the Big East”. Would have flamed out in Big 10/12/SEC as well.

That podcasters jacket is as bad as a pangos jersey.

I certainly didn't mean to imply that Tristen wasn't likeable, he definitely was. I just mean its a 180 from his quiet demeanor to Demary who apparently loves to talk.

The CW is very powerful. It can take long time to change.
