Being 7 foot doesn't help either. I remember Grant, TJ, and even Geriot making this pass - and it was usually a bounce pass or quick give and go cut with a guard. I don't think Quinn can physically make the bounce pass like they did because of his size and immobility, it would likely need to be a pass over the top.
IMO - Get to him to 100% and assume even w/o MFG assume that we can beat the upstate NY team who lost at home handily to a Patriot league team last night (although admittingly the pre-season conference favorite)
Looks like we had to have JOC put a little misinformation out there, and hold Matt out to complete the cover up. Rest assured he will be 101% tomorrow. We debated replacing both knees and giving him a 54" vertical while at it, but thought that may be a little too much for the world to handle. Kind of like Dave Chappelle's "Deep Impact"
ok, but that's all teachable. he can certainly make a bounce pass. he was a 4.0 apg guy. that's a big number for a 5. here's a bounce pass.
Thank you. I don’t disagree with his point, but he should have used his platform after beating Iowa to explain how ridiculous it was the Big 10 got so many births in the tournament. Not about scheduling equity.
Agree...Neal has really good footwork and I think it's like you said he's trying to get acclimated to our system and it's still early. By the meat of the conf I'm hoping he firing on all cylinders
Agree. I really liked what I saw first two games from Quinn. Let’s hope he continues to improve in a new system.
And just to compare, Grace has 11 assists (leads the team), 6 turnovers in 85 minutes.
Agreed - with Grace out - you plug and play Bigelow. Will also be a good test to see how Bigelow plays in a starting role and likely extended minutes as I could see when Grace returns, moving Quinn to the bench and playing Grace and Bigelow to start. But this will depend on how long Grace is out, how Bigelow performs, how Grace performs as he will need to play more with Grace out, and who steps up behind them (Noyes or Walz) to help provide some sub minutes.
4 minutes, but really - he would be playing alongside Burton - so doesn't really matter. If you play Quinn and then Noyes and Burton, your basically asking both Noyes and Burton to pick up the slack down low together.
This is November, I would never bring a player back early to play at 70%. Too high of a liklihood for risk of reinjury and jeopardizing more time lost. Calculus is a bit different if this is March and we are heading into the postseason play, but for now, we rest Grace, make sure his knee is fully healed.
Agree, this is an area that you don't want to mess with. Hopefully it heals quickly. Will be very interestedin the minutes distribution, was expecting Quinn to be a 28+ minutes guy. He is a 7 footer coming off a broken foot so who knows.
