No it's not. No he isn't. 

You don't know what you're talking about. Below are the heights/weights of the starting PG's remaining in the S16 (taken straight from each school's website)

Auburn---Tahaad Pettiford 6'1 175

Michigan---Tre Donaldson 6'3 195

Ole Miss---Sean Pedulla 6'1 195

Michigan State--Tre Holloman 6'2 185

Florida---Walter Clayton Jr 6'3 195

Maryland--Ja'Kobi Gillespie 6'1 186

Texas Tech---Elijah Hawkins 5'11 160

Arkansas---Boogie Fland 6'2 175

Duke--Tyrese Proctor 6'6 183

Arizona--Caleb Love 6'4 205

BYU---Egor Demin 6'9 215

Alabama--Mark Sears 6'1 190

Houston---LJ Cryer 6'1 200

Purdue---Braden Smith 6'0 170

Kentucky--Lamont Butler 6'1 208

Tennessee---Zakai Zeigler 5'9 172

At 6'2 185, Enright is as tall or taller than 11/16 starting PG's left in the tournament. His size is not an issue, clearly.

This can be explained by DePaul running too much offense through him, which also explains the high assist and TO #s. 

He's a bench guy with experience. 

Right. But we're giving him credit for these great assist numbers without knocking him for his turnover issues. His best role, then, is much more limited in terms of the amount of offense running through him... which means he won't be creating as many assists.

Yes, he's a bench guy with experience. And that's fine.

Your claim that the average point guard is 5'11" just took a big hit.

Wasn't my claim, it was @IUGRAD06claim

My post completely debunks @Certified Sunshine Pumperclaim from yesterday that he's too small to start in the B10. Clearly he's not

Enright isn't close to a starter in the B1G. His size alone says that. One bench piece for one year. I'm more than fine with that.

I took it from an article.  6’2” isn’t a small PG and yes some teams use bigger small forwards like BYU.  Most schools are in that range I have though.

I agree with your premise. Enright's size isn't a concern in the least.

I just think we are going down the road of absolutely destroying the off-season. We have won 25 straight off-season championships.

This is our favorite time of year, "We're finally gonna get the guys we need....."

"We're gonna be 35-2 with this new team..."*

People can wonder if year 2 was a fluke or year 3 was a fluke because he was asked to do to much.  That’s an argument right.  He is not very efficient either.  PER is low compared to starting PGs.  Should be in that 15-21 range.  That’s a valid argument and concern with him.

Yeah, he played on a bad DePaul team with a poor supporting cast and was probably asked to do too much. When CJ Gunn is your best perimeter player....you're going to have problems. I think in a system that he's familiar with, surrounded by scorers, he's fine to run the offense for 20 some minutes a game.

I love optimism going into a coaching change. All the tools are there to put a good team together and compete at a high level next season. With the amount of money at CDV's disposal he will be able to be strategic with how he goes about building this team. I am excited to see how it works out. But losses are not acceptable.... 37-0 is a must...

In his IU introductory press conference, DeVries talked about building a program with players who have the right motivation and enthusiasm, who fit together as a team, and who have a desire to be part of something special. In building that, he may start with some players he already knows and who already know him and his expectations - guys who can help shape the team culture and team expectations the way that the JMU transfers did in Cignetti's first year at IU. Maybe Enright is one of those guys. Isn't that a crucial aspect of transforming the program from what it's been to what many fans would like to see? 

"We will know when we have made it when every time a fan, a booster, an alumni, or a former player comes to watch us play and turns on the TV, and after that game is over, that they are filled with pride because they have so much respect for how our team plays, how unselfish they are, the joy they play with, and the enthusiasm they play with and their love for this university."

I do. Remember you told us Stirtz is q 6th man.  Lol 

He's 6ft tall btw. His lack of size shows up on film, you should watch some, of course I'm not convinced you'd know what you were looking at, but hey... give it a shot.

It's hard to take serious you comparing Enright to LJ, Smith, and ZZ lolol

Donaldson may be one of the better guards in the country.

I can’t sign off on that statement. He’s solid. But he’s not even the best player on his own team.
 

 I’m not trying to disparage the guy, but if someone like him is our best guard on the team I think we don’t meet expectations for next year.  Which was the gist of my post.

Yeah for sure. With his lack of size he isn't a starter, but maybe gets us 8-10 mins in B1G games. Solid depth

Did not compare their skillsets, only their size which according to you is a detriment since Enright is bigger than all of them lol.

He isn't lol..  ok, bigger than ZZ.... and they're worlds different. 

LJ Cryer is quite a bit bigger and plays bigger, of course ones a P5 starter and one isn't.

Conor Enright is 6'2 180 lbs and started at a P5 school this last season. Will play heavy rotation minutes for DeVries if not outright starts, although finishing the game is what matters.
