Man, you’re tripping. In here trying to hype up Dillon Mitchell. Mitchell was supposed to be a one n done lottery pick. He’s now going on year three in college. He has NO offensive game. He just jumps high. Ja’Vier Francis is limited on offense and he has a better post-up game than Mitchell.

Report back in here Johnny Newman’s career numbers vs. UH
and then hype up Mitchell.

Stop it.

Sasser once played against “little boys” when he was in high school
so what’s your point.

Agreed. On top of that, it took time for Sasser to develop his craft. He wasn’t the player he is today when he was a freshman. You could see the potential, but he wasn’t a well-rounded player. As a freshman, he only averaged 8 ppg, behind guys like Grimes, Mills, Hinton, and Deeky.

Yeah, Sasser was the first person that came to mind when I saw Mercy‘s highlights. Their style of play is very similar. Mercy is definitely bigger, though. Time will tell whether he develops into an all-conference player like Sasser.

The guy is obviously not very bright if he can’t realize the comparison is based on projection. No one here is going to say Miller is near the same level as Sasser currently as a player, but give him a few years and he very well could be. Difference is Sasser came into the program as a defensive player and turned that into ELITE. Miller has more offensive game but will be starting with much lower base on the defensive side. Sasser was also a dawg with a chip on his shoulder to prove his worth, where as Mercy comes from privilege and being told how great he is all the time.

Who is this? Is this Uzan?

@Hill i agree.

Hes bought in defensively.

At Iowa State, tough environment. He stepped up.

Had 30 in the tournament vs A&M. He doesn’t shrink from the moment

He looks like he wants to get back to his dorm and sleep. Lol

What I was really surprised by last year was that Sharp got a lot of really tough defensive assignments and really held his own. That was a massive change from his freshman year. I love that Sampson is seeing true leadership ability in him. I seriously can’t wait for this next basketball season to start!

Look out for Sharp and the ISU kid

everyone on that list are actually strong candidates 
 the guy did his research as everyone of the players he listed is expected to have breakout year
 all of their respective teams wont be as good as preseason projected without them having that breakout year


I’m worried about this year I just meant it usually takes awhile for high school guys I mean Jarace Walker 5 star here was kinda meh. I would rather have Justin Gorham.

Walker was beyond meh, great D, good shooting. He didn’t take over games but that doesn’t equal sub par
