McKneely is almost exclusively catch and shoot. Conwell and Dix can both dribble and both can get to the rim. Conwell can handle the ball, he's a combo guard. 

 

Conwell -- 7.1 3PA per game out of 11.5 total attempts

McKneely- 7.5 3PA per game out of 10.9 total attempts

Dix- 4.8 3PA per game out of 11. total attempts

 

 

Usage-- RC 23.5%, IM 22.7%, Dix 19.6% (I'd like to see this number in the games Freeman didn't play)

Curious case there.  Would we even want him as a backup?  I kinda assume we might but he's shown nothing to make me feel good about it besides "potential"

I actually feel sort of bad for Booker. Because of his talent he’s stuck playing a sport he clearly doesn’t particularly like and he’s just not terribly competitive. Nothing wrong with that unless you’re an athlete. I imagine there are about 50 things he’d rather be doing than playing ball but he’s gonna be stuck doing this until he can walk away and that may be a few years. Not the 1st kid I’ve seen in that boat.

attempts at the rim 2025

McKneely: 20-44 45%

Dix: 66-93 70%

Conwell: 73-120 61%

McKneely doesn't do anything but shoot 3's.

AJ Hammons was the same way. Supposedly he loved band and playing music but he was 7 feet tall and athletic, so basketball became his initial path.

We’re not even in mckneely group so this conversation is pointless. Nail down Dix and Conwell today.

Sounds like were in good shape with Conwell. I think we get him today, and Dix tonight or tomorrow.

Fans would warm up to coach REAL fast if he pulls this off.

Nothing?

Providing context and insight to each players skillset. McKneely is an elite 3 point shooter, but there's not much else to his game offensively. Dix and Conwell can both shoot and put the ball on the floor. IF you could only choose two between Dix, Conwell, and McKneely...give me the two former all day every day. I don't think McKneely is even considering IU at the moment so it's moot anyways.

I don't know as much about Dix's situation as Conwell's, but it sounds like there is a chance.

Ok? I'm not fighting with you lol.

Yeah i think Rabby said Dix will be on campus tomorrow too. I think he knows enright so I’m sure thats part of it (just guessing) 

[hotjawns]

Does anyone know how many years of elig. Dix and Conwell would each have? And Tucker Devries too while you're at it?
