Absolutely love his shot improvement.

Remember all the posts saying how his shot was "broken" and that it was absurd and ridiculous to think he would ever shoot better? 

Yeah, guys can and do make big improvements in their games, and no, it's not comparing them to Oladipo. 

Hope Gallo's improvement, including later in his IU career as it has come, will remind. 

He's always been a hard-nosed defensive backcourt player, has always brought the energy and tenacity, he's shown close to point-guard level floor vision and assists. Now he's taken big steps in getting his former out-of-control drives under control, and his shot is light years better. Always great to see key guys make jumps in their games, remains and should remain a key part of the team's overall development.

Not much left to add to his game, eh? Big time athlete, pays hard, defensive excellence, three ball, finishes at rim, floater.

The last thing to add is probably a mid-range pull-up game. Knowing Trey Galloway, that's coming too.

He reminds me a ton of the other player from Dipo's recruiting class Will Sheehey.  Hard nosed relentless defender that gets in the opponents head and improving offensive player every season.

Yeah Sheehey had the same fire, a guy the other team offensive players can't stand. Love that kind of on-court attitude.

I'd like to see him lower his handle, his dribble is too high, holds him back a bit in traffic and when pressed. But yeah, he's added so much to his game.

Let's hope his leadership trajectory is slightly different. Sheehey had a role on the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 team and was exceptional in that role.

pssh.

Will Sheehey was a chippy, athletic player and I'm glad he was a Hoosier, but Trey's ball-handling, three point shooting, and court sense are already miles ahead of anything Will had at IU. 

By Will's senior year he was still averaging

  1. More turnovers than assists and
  2. Shot 33% from three.

This year, with two more years to improve, Trey Galloway is averaging:

  • About three times as many assists as turnovers, and
  • 52% from three

Will never learned to play with the ball in his hands. Trey has been a revelation with the ball in his hands

Great point!

Chippy Will Sheehey was an effective role player, but was not very effective as a leader.

Trey Galloway is already one of the team leaders and appears (to me) will be the go to on-court voice of the coaching staff once Race, Trayce, Miller, and X are gone.

Will Sheehey and Trey Galloway being talked about in the same thread is probably like the best thing ever :)

I haven't watched a minute of high school basketball since 1994, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. How in the world did Anthony Leal win Mr Basketball with Trey Galloway finishing 3rd??

 

 

Wasn’t Trey injured for part of his senior season? Leal is an outlier. Probably the worst Mr Basketball in 25 years. I think Perkins at Iowa was second and he is a solid B1G player.

He was the best player on the best team in the state. Pretty sure they were the favorite to win state before COVID stopped the season.
