(2016/17) PG Markus Howard to Marquette

[HoosierAloha 29,887]

Would we have room for him if he reclassifies?  It is a bit rhetorical...

 

An automatic shooter at the pg spot would be a good tool to have in the arsenal though.

I think we have one spot on the roster that could be given to a quality player.

Do we take another (point) guard with RoJo, CuJo, Newkirk, Green, and JBJ on the roster if Markus reclassifies to '16?

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

Newkirk is the only pure pg. The others are combos correct? Who knows what CTC will do in recruiting, he surprises me every season.

[HoosierAloha 29,887]

I believe that's correct but also think RoJo, CuJo, and JBJ all want to play on the ball as well.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

I think how JBJ rehabs is important. If he takes on a can do attitude, or THE other side of it. I hope he comes back strong, but its on him.

[Brass Cannon 24,064]

Haven't seen him play but to be rated that high at less than six feet tall he has to have some skill. Let's get him to reclassify.

I hope he reclassifies. I watched a few videos of him tonight & really is impressive ball handler and can stop on a dime. He dunked in a workout a few times, so that's pretty cool for a little guy. A few gametime no look passes, smooth.
He's not Yogi, but the next best thing. And, well I'll miss Yogi a lot, so if he can fill that void for me I want him. Here's to four years of Howard!

Kid is a stud. Some fans will hate him though bc he's a scoring PG.

Maybe I'm new on this guy, but I understand if we get this guy we might have over recruited the guard position, but this guy is a stud and does anyone else see a big resemblance to him and Yogi?

plays totally different than Yogi. Only similarity is both are good/great shooters and both are small. Howard doesn't elevate on jumper yet like Yogi. More of a set shot. Didn't do a ton of dribble penetration in the game I watched. Moved ball quickly with passing. Found spots open and called for ball. Hit open shots. Doesn't seem super quick but his build and style may be deceiving.

this may sound negative but it's not. I was impressed with court intelligence and shooting tremendously.

I haven't had a chance to watch him, I was just reading some of the recruiting sites that talk about his play style. Said he was a good shooter even better off the dribble and of course his size. Just as I was reading his scouting report it sounded a lot like Yogi.

Interesting, is he planning to announce if he is going to reclassify before then?

[ALASKA HOOSIER 11,169]

I have a feeling he is picking IU

[Brass Cannon 24,064]

I imagine we would want him to reclassify right, that would be our preference right?

That seems like a ton of guards in one class and a lot next season.

 

CuJo, Gelon, Green, and Howard
