Post cinci - (Maybe) end of the 17 18 road
It was tough to watch that team play the last half of the season knowing with our 2 best players we were most likely a tournament team. I will say that the GOOD THING that came out of this season now that itΓÇÖs all said and done is 3 out of the 4 freshman have legitimate experience playing high level D1 basketball and that will help out a lot more next year than we think. Even if landrum transfers out we still have Douglas and chargois that got their feet wet this year. Douglas and landrum in my opinion underperformed, itΓÇÖs hard for a freshman to come in but damn 3ppg from landrum and 2 from Douglas is really not good, but they got plenty of experience so I think that will help out for next year hopefully. Chagois before conference play started making me think he might be a 1 and done or a 2 year player, then conference hits and i realize that heΓÇÖs not as ΓÇ£aboveΓÇ¥ the other freshman as we thought. In my opinion ray wasnΓÇÖt a bust like everyone makes him out to be, when he shot the ball it went in, 63 percent from the field and 66 percent from 3, I know he didnΓÇÖt play in very many games but still a lot better than landrum and Douglas started. I think adding mike to next years group, getting jarrey back, Whitt coming back, returning chargois, McMurray, 3 out of the 4 freshman, a good freshman or JUCO guard, Feron Hunt being thrown in also, will be a good enough lineup to get us a shot at the tourney. But if shake comes back, returning 4 starters from. Team that was a tourney team before injuries will be very good, enough to get us a shot at the AAC. Even if he doesnΓÇÖt come back I still feel good about next years group. Moody Magic will be back and we will land some big time 2019 recruits. I donΓÇÖt understand that all the fuss is about. SMU basketball is fine and will return back to relevance soon.

Why does everyone think Landrum is leaving? If a y of the freshman are unhappy I think it would be Ethan or Douglas

Your honesty is much appreciated, however, you should never be allowed to post about college basketball again if at any time you thought Chagrois was a 1 and done caliber player

I canΓÇÖt see any of our freshmen leaving.
Ethan got all rookie conference honors. And Landrum and Douglas both got significant time. Ray was injured most of the season too but I saw glimpses of good play from him - a lot of energy and very physical.
All will be great assets next year.

Oh really? So when his first game he had 15 points and 9 rebounds and his second game went for 23 points and 8 rebounds that didnΓÇÖt make you think he was a very high caliber player? Those arenΓÇÖt ΓÇ£1 and done caliberΓÇ¥ stats

Our freshman class was a disaster. Chargois is the only one worth anything and he hit a wall in January. Jank has his work cut out for him.

Nice stats doesn't always mean 1-done, especially against Northwestern St or whoever we were playing. His body has a long way to go. Further, he is not very athletic, especially by NBA standards. If he was 6'11 might be different. He showed he has the skill-set if he works hard to be an NBA player in 3 or 4 years and was impressive early on, but he didn't look like a 1-done.

Nah, if there were an NBA player in this mix, freshman or not, they would have won more games. But I do agree that the play experience will be invaluable for next year. I am cautiously optimistic. I want my girl to dance at the dance!
