That's easy. Unless you're flashy, you get looked over. Use Trent Frazier as the ultimate example. Has basically the best defender numbers in the country and he SOMEHOW doesn't get on the Naismith list? SMH. Ultimately, even the dumbest scouts figure it out after the guy wins championships!!!
Knot shore watt yore werked up a boot
He scores too inconsistently to get on the DPOY watch list. LOL
Has anyone heard anything more about this? Reyna is a top Guard prospect for the Illini, already a 4 star kid and elite PG. He follows me and likes a lot of my pro-ILL tweets so I've always gotten a strong vibe from him. Hope he's ok
There are a lot of really good players around the country. I think he's rated about where he should be. Keep in mind he's a 6'6 guy that doesn't have much offense outside of 10 feet. That's not a prescription for being ranked high.
He made a tweet saying he is going to take some time away. Strange because its almost time for the state playoffs. Talented team around him. Bigs, Freshman, the whole works. I hope that he gets it together.
I'd love to have him back. Our group of guards, talented as they seem, could probably use an elder statesman.
I'm reminded of what Henson used to say: "If they're not playing defense, well then they can just come and sit with me."
This is not just Henson or BU. Most coaches approach things the same, especially with FR. Play good defense and do it consistently and you'll likely get PT. If a kid is a lottery type talent on offense that's only going to be around one year, then there might be a little slack in this. But not much.
Dainja might be your man.
Rogers reminds of Roger Powell a bit.
If Underwood really wants to endear himself to the Irvins for recruiting benefits, he should really just go teach them how to coach.
Given their coach’s tweets during our Loyola loss last year, he believes he needs to teach Underwood how to coach. LOL.
Yeah, I think the injury slowed down Monte. Monte seemed much faster then and while still a good leaper, not nearly as explosive as then.
Question for the board...does anyone know if this player is in the portal yet?
They are not.
Someone on Twitter is talking to others via DM about this transfer option. A friend wouldn't tell me specifically who this guy said it was, but he said I'd be excited if it happens. And the kid currently plays in the Midwest. (?) No clue if the Twitter account or my friend are full of it. That's the most info I've heard FWIW.
Most likely would be Antonio Reeves since his coach just got fired at ISU.
Or the three and the other three. Let's just say they'll play on the wings.
