That's Frazier's role-he's going to have to step up like he was beginning to do at end of season. . We've got Moore and Sterling who really shot the 3 pretty darn well for a true freshman. What we really could use is SF that could hit 3s or a guy like Hancock at Louisville. An 18 year old Dirk wouldn't hurt.
You're right in that the big issue with a freshman guard sniper is will they play defense well enough to make LB happy (see Brian B)? A Hancock or Daniels type guy would be ideal. There are only four of the Rivals top 150 uncommitted. I'm sure the staff is all over the JUCO prospects.
Sounds like a DJ Hogg type (of course won't help us next year, but he seems to fit the Daniels mold).
Same type of game that Terrance Ferguson plays. Ferguson seems to attack the rim a little more than Hogg though. I love both of their games. I'm still very optimistic about getting Ferguson.

Yeah, I think Ferguson is very special. We'll see.
My gut tells me that he really likes KU, parents think it's too far and want him to go to SMU, and UT is a compromise choice being closer to home (not too close) but in the potentially more stable Big 12 with a history of good basketball/fan support. We are still an upstart in this young man's eyes. I hope to be proven wrong, but everyone has been saying UT for weeks.
