Although he lacks elevation on his jump shot it, his release is pretty quick which I think kinda compensates his elevation. Very excited to see these frosh come in.

That's what I thought too...can't block it if it's already gone by the time they close out.

Gonna be a Wild Bull Stampede when the lads come to town, Atomic.....

Did you ever see Gary Grant? I think he may be the best on ball defender I have ever seen. Maybe there are others, but I was at Iowa when he played ay Michigan, and man that guy was like a glove.

And I always liked his running mate's nickname. Antoine "The Judge" Joubert. He was nicknamed "The Judge" because he "ruled the court" and he picked up the moniker in high school.

I still remember walking into a party at those apartments next to the convenience store on Burlington Ave. just down from Old Capitol Mall one night after an Iowa and Michigan hoops game and seeing Grant, Joubert and Leslie Rockymore at the party hanging out. That was pretty cool. I am sure they we staying at the hotel up the street and probably went to the QT to get something and saw the party and just figured no one would complain if they came over.

Like I said, that was pretty cool.

I do remember Gary Grant, loved to watch him play. He played on some very good Michigan teams with Glen Rice and Roy Trapley. He was a demon on defense, one of the very best.....

Michigan and Iowa had some really good games in those days. They had a lot of respect for each other. I remember one time a Wolverine player said something like: We love it when Iowa comes to town, Roy, BJ, Sir Jamalot, It's always a good game.....

A quick release before being covered could compensate for low elevation on his jump shot. That NW guy, John Sturma had a low release and did very well, although he was taller than most guards he would face on the perimeter.....

Fran seems to be very good at developing talent and I am certain he will correct the situation if he feels it is a problem. I will be making it to PTL this year, really want to see these guys in action. Wonder if some of the recruits will be playing AAU ball.....

There's a reason so many people who have seen him think he will be the gem of the class.

He's smooth, very mature physically. They'll coach him up on shot technique...but this kid has the physical tools and looks so comfortable and in charge out there.

Their Sophomore year could be a very good year for the Hawks, BigD.....

You are right about Josh, he is no slouch and sometimes is overlooked. He is an essential component to this team, and will only get better.....
