I haven't seen him play but looking at his numbers there are a couple of things that confuse me:

1) Why he announced for the NBA draft in the first place

2) Why IU is a possibility for him at this point. He doesn't fill a need.

He absolutely fills a need for us.

He’s a ball handling two guard that facilitates and passes well, and is a perimeter shooter.

This may be our guy.

He's a guard? 247 and sports reference have him listed as a forward which is why I was confused.

Not gonna lie, I don’t care about his stats, love that kid. He could be a legit 6’8” PG if you wanted to use him that way. He’s got such great vision. He’s super creative in pick and roll. Exceptional instincts playing the passing lanes. 2 issues: 1) His shot is a little funky and he’s steaky from 3. Can make 5 straight then miss 10. 2) He’s built like a stick figure and adding 20-30 lbs doesn’t look at all likely. 

Saves typing on Sharavjamts. I’d take him without a thought.

He needs to gain 20 pounds, but he has great handles and great court vision.

He’s exactly what we don’t have with our current 12 players.

Ernest Udeh (Kansas, casualty of Dickinson signing) commits to TCU.

I hope Udeh tears it up and Dickinson sucks

Played AAU with Cupps apparently.

Watched him a ton last year. Not sure he’d start, but could definitely find a way to earn minutes. So talented and a fun player to watch. Just needs to improve his shooting.

Strange combination for his list.  Also think he can be exploited if he's being asked to defend the against any kind of speed at the guard position.  Think he's a 3 at this point in his development, not a point.  Not sure where his minutes come.

We know Woody loves length and positional size. Would also make sense why things have been quiet, if there was reason to believe he was interested in IU.

With Gabe Cupps acting as the intermediary.

Naturally.

Illinois keeps getting bad news on their recruitment of Ray J. Dennis.  First it looked like he was set to sign at Utah, now could be Baylor.

My son goes to UD, he was never a fan. I watched him some this past year too. He is very streaky shooter, and does love to shoot and son said all he is interested in is professional ball and how to get there-why he went in draft. I would be more worried about team chemistry. I would take Galloway everyday. Now if he is a backup that may work.

Get him on campus and figure lineups out later.

I seem him offering an option for minutes and probably has a low floor, high ceiling.  Not sure of the fit, but I also think there isn't any reason not to use a scholarship on an option.  Do wonder if a more traditional 2 guard wouldn't be a better get, though.

Easy to see him playing in rotation with X and Galloway. Love him as a facilitator. He’s just a clever kid. 1 other thing. He’ll play next year at 21. Would be stunned if he’s not a 1 year guy, which is perfect.

What am I missing with this kid because on the surface last year wasn't very good for him.

 

5.6 pts, 1.9 rebs, 2.6 asst., 1.7 to's, 38% from the field, 31 from 3

[JSHoosier 20,085]

Not saying he doesn't have potential but I don't really want to bring in a transfer that would still have 3 years so scholarships open up for 24 and 25 classes.  I'd go for a more traditional 2 with less eligibility left, and one that hopefully shot better than 32%.

That's exactly right. UD fans were dumbfounded when he went in draft.
