I think Ware was under-utilized as a stretch 5. I do agree with everything else but rather than bringing in another 5 to start with MR I'd like our staff to make him a competent defensive 5. That doesn't mean he needs to block shots or play like TJD/Ware.

On offense Reneau is a 5 playing with another 5 because he can't play that position defensively.

Which worked wonders this last year?

Agree with both of you. Lots of people trying to figure out the best lineup they can run with MR and I think they all fall short. Those people know it too. MR is a matchup nightmare but not in a good way. Take him out of the equation and you can foresee a lot of good lineups. I like MR but he's not a good fit for any roster honestly.

Take his namesake out and he's not a top 30 recruit.

Agree with everything but Bates went to Mizzou

Well he hit everything last night including the side of the backboard on a 15 footer. Wasn't impressed with him at all

Yeah Fland and Jackson were the definition of score 1st PG's in that game. Not even sure there was a 2nd objective for them.

I can see the IQ praise he's had. Made the right cuts, right pass and got to right spots defensively. I would have liked him to take the corner 3 rather than try to drive late in 1st half. Honestly, in this game, he's looked better than McNeely. It's one game(all-star), I know.

Sure hope he stays for multiple reasons. #1 being I clearly root for the smaller IN schools (ISU, BSU, Valpo and Eville). #2 because I wouldn't mind Schertz at IU in '25

Later said he wasn't entering portal but will enter NBA draft

Well he certainly can make tough contested 3's and he certainly makes some shots more difficult than necessary. Highlight videos suck imo. Can he defend in any way? How would he do going from D2 to B1G?

Hadn't seen it before his post. Great nickname

Not sure how Foul Ming isn't getting more appreciation. I IRL lol'd.

30% from 3 and 68% from FT.

We were in his final 2 or 3 weren't we? Seems like he started getting a little better as the year went on but still a long ways to go. From my uneducated MDBB experience

You and Bob are a great listen. Appreciate having you aboard here.

Thanks for the insight. In his video you see him taking and making several contested 3's. Is there consistency doing that? Any pull up shooting abilities? Thanks

The Barrel has f***ed with us plenty but it's very obvious and hilarious when he does. He's been on this one since the beginning and I believe him.

A) Because it's Vandy B) Because it's Bryce Drew C) Because it's Vandy

My HS. You know it's bigger than I thought. I remember looking up the largest gyms and figured AC would be at the bottom buy it's in the middle. It is old in structure and certainly unique.

Haven't we tried the UT Martin thing before?

WTF? Didn't see that one. Something tells me he will fail there. I think UL was the better job for him.

Welp....Dusty announce as UL coach tomorrow?

Played against him last year in NCAAT. He's been a solid player for them but he was 2nd or 3rd fiddle last year correct?
