I love Mike Waldo but it was pretty brutal to watch.Well sure, but I was trying to stay germane to the shot clock discussion.
More generally...
Edwardsville : Southwestern Conference :: Michigan : Big Ten Conference

God I hated Waldo ball. I went to O'Fallon and when we joined the Southwest Conference I was like "are they really going 4 corners at the start of the game?" .. That was their tactic. If a team was better than them 4 corners right away if a team they were leading came back in range they would go into 4 corners regardless of how much time was left in the game.I remember when I was in high school (down in Collinsville), we always hated playing Edwardsville because they intentionally just passed the ball around ad nauseum until eventually something opened up. It was an extremely boring thing to watch because there was no incentive for them to actually attack the basket in any way.
Malachi is a true #2, not a PG. He scores inside and outside, ball handles, assists, rebounds. One year of eligibility left. What's not to like? Maybe the fit is something BU does not like, but the stats are there.The few times I watched him Smith was the primary ballhandler for much of the game, so I wouldn't write him off as a point guard too quickly. I also wouldn't read too much into the assist rate as Paris' teams collectively did not rely on assists to score during his tenure in Chattanooga. I'd personally take him and would expect him to play a lot of minutes.
Anyway, here's a picture of Illini legend Dick Butkus with Rob Reiner, both sporting tremendous disco shirts on an episode of The Rockford Files:

Good shooting numbers for him. 4 PF rough though. What's his defensive rep?
I grew up playing against McLeansboro and they played the same way. Voodoo ball. Would just pass it around all quarter if they could. Most games the final scores were in the 20s.

Not sure about his rep, but here are his PF averages:Good shooting numbers for him. 4 PF rough though. What's his defensive rep?
Ugh...Curt Reed stall ball was the worst.I grew up playing against McLeansboro and they played the same way. Voodoo ball. Would just pass it around all quarter if they could. Most games the final scores were in the 20s. It was brutal
