Player Ryan Young

[rhfarmer]

That's a pretty precise estimation!

The fact that Young often gets to play with four guards is probably helping matters there.

That was the case for most of his playing time yesterday, but it isn't true for the season overall. He's played roughly 65% of his minutes this season with Flip on the court next to him, by my estimation.

It was also true in the OSU game from what I saw.

But how about next time you just let my inaccurate statement slide instead of coming in with facts?

Aye aye! I'm only fulfilling my duties as a member of the Ryan Young fan club.

1-2 for 2 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 blocks. Lol.

Have to admit he won me over a good bit tonight. His lack of ability to affect anything at the rim unless he's in perfect position is what it is, but he had some nice defensive possessions tonight. He's a good player to have in these types of games.

Also, the G-G-Grandison-Whitehead-Young lineups are very interesting to me. They only seem to happen with Young - which baffles me, since he's the one big I'd expect to need to have some help protecting the rim.

Scheyer must get something I don't though, because I believe that was the lineup to pushed things to 15 and effectively ended it.

Like I mentioned earlier, I generally like Ryan Young's defense. Way better than I expected. He's in position, which can go a long way.

Still want more Flip at the 5.

Some of his stat lines are Zion like.

And if you squint hard enough you can a lot of Zion in Young’s game, body type and athleticism.

Enormous preseason hype?

 

[childress22]

A fucking beast. The best game any one of our guys has played this year? Even the little things were stellar: 6 fouls drawn, 2 asts/0 turnovers, team +26 in 25 minutes.

Ryan Young is what I imagine everyone on this board looks like, 80-85 percent or so to scale.

 

[torontoduke]

Absolute workhorse.

He has limitations, but his effort creates so many positive outcomes.

[rhfarmer]

Still doesn't pass the eye test.

 

[bfactor]

Alarmingly unathletic.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

I think he and this team are going to be remembered very similarly to Matthew Hurt and the failed COVID team. A uniquely transcendent individual season for a team that makes it ultimately meaningless.

 

[torontoduke]

Does anyone know if he has another year of eligibility next year or if this is it for him?

Young has one more year.

Would be fantastic on next year's roster as a backup to Stewart.
