Gives us none of the things QG did.

An upgrade on Justin Harmon, very possibly.
QG averaged 9 and 4 before tranferring here. Shot 34 from 3 and 58 from the line and 1.3 turnovers. I think White could totally give us similar to what QG gave us and possibly more from post scoring but maybe not the 3 point.

Quincy also didnt play very good defense and was benched a lot at the end of the season.

The thing is, it doesn't sound as though he had this problem at USC. He got himself in a bad spot at Louisville and is looking for a second chance. I could see this working out
I understand that he played good D at USC. What Louisville fans saw on the court from him when his team wasn't doing well still concerns me. I hope that you're right, though, that things work out, and that his influence on our team next season is a good one.

This is a completely dishonest take as to why fans on here are questioning this signing. It has nothing to do with him not being top ranked or being a "depth" signing. It has everything to do with him having the worst attitude on the court for a team that had team-wide issues with attitude and effort. Given the views of most Louisville fans on this signing and what I saw defensively from him when I watched Louisville play earlier this season, the concerns expressed are more than reasonable. Character counts. Whether it's from your starters or your bench guys, bad psyche has a negative effect on team chemistry. Hopefully he will prove the doubters wrong, but it's insulting to the intellect of any reasonable observer to call the doubts on this signing unreasonable.
I trust Brad. He gets paid a lot of money to vet kids and bring in kids he believes in. Nothing dishonest at all in my post. Brad sees talent and thinks he can coach this kid up to help our team. If he’s wrong, then he’ll be the 14th guy off our bench this year and gone next year. Do you really think he’ll see meaningful minutes if his effort is poor and his attitude sucks? Sorry if your intellect feels insulted. Wasn’t my intention. But I Think Brad and co have earned the benefit of the doubt and I think it’s silly for you, or anyone else on this board, to think they understand EDG culture better than Brad does.
