So?  The point is they will likely be the guys taking our 3s next year. Or at least the ones we have stats on. Hunter being a ?

But I think you would agree that defending a team with 4 guys shooting 35% from three is different than defending one with one guy shooting 42%, on shooting 33%, one at 31%, and one at 22%.    I mean, you could throw in Davis into that that composite 35% number and the statement would have still been true.

I would say that it would be easier to defend the three that all shoot 35%.

The lack of any kind of positive recruiting or roster news is killing me. Outside of Brunk it just seems quiet right now.

It will be until the first eval period most likely outside of a grad transfer.

I agree but I do think it is strange they haven’t really been connected to anyone yet besides Brunk. There definitely seem to be some impact grad transfers hitting the market.

They still have to do their own end of season meetings with the current roster. They might not k ow how that will shake out yet, to know how many spots they need to fill. Right now we have 1 spot and the rumors are we have a shot at Brunk.

There is literally no difference in how you defend a 31, 33, and 35 percent three point  shooter.  There us a difference between how you guard a 42 v 35 and 35 v 21.

There most certainly is a difference you don’t have to worry about doubling anybody. And you can sag further back

thought we now have 2 schollies to give with Moore leaving (his & Langford's) and I assume 1 of those is Brunk's if he wants it, leaving the other for Watford/Quinones/Beverly, or grad transfer shooter like Pierce, or potential redshirt like Windham or Roderick...

Langford hasn’t announced yet. Likely gone but nothing official yet.

don't think Langford really has to announce anything (unless he drops all the way out of the lottery, which is possible) because it's about 99% that he's gone

Well, he’s not far from dropping out of it, and he will need to make it official via entering his name and hiring an agent.

Watched him play vs Cathedral this season and the kid was a beast. Not sure if he played at that level all season or not. I was impressed.
