I think it might be Grant Nelson from North Dakota State.
If Hawkins ends up not coming back, this would be a pipe dream
I love Christopher's Walken Shop

Watch, it's a person whose name is like 45 letters long.
The Galloping Ghost

- respect my decision™
hit me up with another hint:
I had the exact same thought, went looking for the longest name in CBB, couldn't find anything and gave up.
The best I could do was Martynas Andriuškevičius formerly of the NBA.

Your music choices reminded me I need to dig out Sinead's "The Lion and the Cobra" and listen through that soon, great album.
Appreciate it, but eh, it's all good. Clearly I should have actually taken the past 20 years worth of PGs from midmajors who transitioned to a power conference then built an engine to correlate RayJ's stats based on height, weight, shooting%, team efficiency and strength metrics, assist, steal, rebound, block, and turnover ratios, modified 2pt and 3pt fg%, and free throw percentage. Then using the closest at least 299 profiles to cover for likely non-normality, create curves based on junior to senior year differentials, pretend to do an Anderson-Darling test for normality but really skip right ahead to determining Weibullness or Pearsonality because things are never normal in the real world, and finally, likely go to using a nonparametric procedure to build confidence intervals to give T50, T95, and T5 projections to give people an actual statistical projection of the range that will likely envelop where RayJ would actually produce. And having a stats background, I definitely know better than to sloppily throw out comparisons that could be misconstrued as actual statistical analysis, but let's face it, it's midnight, I see comments on how RayJ's stats need to be discounted because he's from Toledo, or comparisons to Andre Curbelo and Deron Williams, and it piqued my interest. What can I say, other than I'm a glutton for punishment, lol...I dont get the flack either, he found a player of similar size, in a similar situation, with similar stats and said this is what could happen if it translates. Seems like that's more useful than just saying Toledo stinks
Plus I thought aaeismacgychel is a stats guy, worked with Ken Pomeroy on a website of some kind ? ...
In any case, I appreciate the positivity in your post. And yeah, I may have worked with Ken many moons ago... But hey, I'm a layperson now, lol, so I need to start acting like it.
I guess I should probably write here for everyone else is that similar to what you said, what I did was a comparison between RayJ and the midmajor transfer PG whose metrics and playing stats best correlates to RayJs rather than an actual statistical analysis, and the "extrapolation" was simply showing how RayJ's numbers could effectively change in B10 play and how he'd rank if he followed the exact same course, something that indeed will not happen. He may be better, he may be worse, who knows? But that is just a single example based on the player who statwise most closely resembles RayJ, such that people have some frame of reference.

Tristan da Silva will explore his options. And if he makes an impression, well then just maybe he already has played his final game for the Colorado Buffaloes.

I don't know about Derwin Williams, but SHERWIN Williams, now there's a guy who could dominate the paint.
Agree. Don’t think he’s quite an NBA player. Would demand top dollar NIL and not block Clingan’s spot (which would probably make him leave).

Yes, but you also need to measure his intangibles and figure out if he does or does not like to be yelled at. You can't half a$$ it a second time
I grew up on ritz's live very close but i think Culver's is underrated.
