SignUp Now!Had only one crystal ball prediction for Duke. Slater, last week.
Yeah, the numbers SMTTEM quoted didn't look like a natural shooter. I was more troubled by the FTs than the 3PT percentage, tbh. The 3pt percentage is better than Tre's.He seems extremely smart and personable in interviews, and he plays hard on both ends. That said, he's not going to set the world ablaze with his shooting. In other words, in most ways he has similar strengths and weaknesses to Tre Jones.
Roach was on the U18 World Cup team last year with Carey and Moore (and Scottie Barnes). He won a starting job despite being a year younger than the other guys, although it was a two-headed point situation with De'Vion Harman. He shot well from the line (10-12 in 7 games), but only 34% from the field and 1-12 from the arc.
Could be. You've got to think that recruits hear about a silent commitment of another player before we do. Maybe he was already leaning toward decommitment and this was the tipping point. He realistically wouldn't have started at PG this year or the next.Had only one crystal ball prediction for Duke. Slater, last week.
Not implying causality one way or the other, but interestingly Slater did put in that CB to Duke for Roach the same day Boogie announced his decommitment.
When is the last time someone committed this week early?
Watching him and his release looks good. The shot seems soft and his body is square.You've probably watched him more than I have though, so I'll defer to your opinion. If we got Boston and Johnson to go along with him, that would offset marginal shooting. Sounds like Scottie Barnes needs to improve his outside shooting, so I'd prefer Johnson if we can't get both.
You live in Kentucky. You've got to sabotage Johnson's love for UK somehow.Looks better than Boogie which lessens that blow. Johnson is who I want though. Give me Johnson, Roach and 2 bigs. Everything else is just a bonus.
