I will.

Great - y'all are part of the family. Nic is one fine young man and that includes outside the court.

If Shake is driving, what snipers do we have on the arc?


I'd expect Wilson, Sterling, Feoling, Ben E and Dashawn to really help w range Jarrey too

I would expect Jarrey's game to improve along the lines of what we've seen from Sterling year over year.
Jarrey may never be the fire brand that Stetling is but he can get to the rim, nail a three, rebound and contribute outside of the box score.

He was a great get.

Starting to see Jarrey get a little more confidence in his hops. Had a tremendous drive to the bucket last night.

Hoopmanx - Deshawn will drive and dish to Milton on the perimeter as much or more than the other way around, right?

That drive where he knifed through the defense and layed it in was maybe his best move all season. He just a complete player - defends well, rebounds well, can drive and hit the three. Next season his knee and confidence should be at 100% and we will see a great all-around player.

Foster should great next year with a summer and more practices. Definitely an all-around player. Defends, rebounds, and scores.

Still seems to not have confidence in his knee. That will come with time

Having to play this year will make a huge difference for Foster over the next three. I think he is going to turn into the steady player that will always put up good, but not great numbers. Steady player that you can always count on.

Yes. A lot like Sterling his freshman year.

I'm high on foster overall. Love his length and athleticism (which will only improve as he gets more confidence in his knee). His shooting has gotten a bit worse as the season has gone on (maybe from pressing) and last night I noticed a weird double clutch (hopefully just one awkward shot and not a habit). He will be a solid player all 4 years if healthy.

That drive was beautiful. He had got a couple of clutch rebounds if I recall correctly. And nailed 2 very important 3 pointers (after air balling one, which shows resilience and character). Will need him to take one more step up next year. Seems to have a perfect attitude.

Had to laugh at his first 3 point attempt from the top of the circle that missed the rim to the left and bounced off of the backboard. Announcer said something to the effect of it never being good when your shot makes a sound like thud.

Hoopman talked about family at the start of this thread. I saw on Twitter where Sterling Moore, Chris Banjo, Garrett Gilbert, and a couple of others took in the Gonzaga game from a suite. And Q Ross was also in attendance. Sterling and Bease were there a few weeks ago. Maybe SMU is finally starting to understand "family".
