R&B, I believe they were comparing Petrie to Scott, not Nick. But, completely agree with your point on Nick. Nick is no Chandler Diekvoss or Kadeem Smithen.

Sorry--was referring to Petrie.Nick is a definite scorer and is way ahead of where Scott was his freshmen year. If you haven't seen Nick or Buckingham play , you need to do so. You will leave very happy.
by a couple you mean 6? Add 6" to me and I'd have played D1, too.Add a couple inches and you get a right handed version of Scott Unger.
Looks like Nick's St. Chris will be playing in another tourney, starting on the 28th, at Henrico HS. Henrico will also participate, along with DeMonte Buckingham, I presume.
I wonder if there is a chance that St. Chris will be playing against Henrico HS in this tourney. If so, this could be a great game for Richmond'-based Spider fans to go out and see. If anyone is keeping track of the local tourney, and the schedule, please post here if the two future Spiders will face-off against each other, along with the day and time. It would be nice to have a UR cheering section. I could certainly find two hours to watch this game (and our two future Spiders), if I knew when it will be.
Petrie continues to put up some impressive numbers that are just behind Nick's. Nick scores 30, and Petrie comes in at 24. These two scored as many points as Collegiate's entire team (54) in the above game. Petrie also managed 3 steals in this game, suggesting that his defense may not be a weakness, as some have suggested. I hope we are looking at recruiting Petrie also. If we are, our coaches have plenty of oportunties to watch him play, and have a great "reference" source, in Nick. If we are interested in Petrie, I imagine that Nick will help us with the recruiting too....
That is a nice night!! I was told he is 6'4" in reality. Wish he could start tonight for UR.In a rivalry game last night in front of a loud and packed gym, Nick led his team with 24 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals. Most interestingly, the article refers to Nick as being 6 feet 6 inches tall. OSC
K, I had heard that he was 6' 4" but recently experienced a growth spurt. In any case, he can sure shoot! Cannot wait for him to play next year. When one thinks about it, next year will be VERY different. Cannot recall a single year that the Spiders will feature so much local talent. Let's all support Coach Mooney, his staff and players, and look forward to a great ride the next few years. Roll Spide! OSCThat is a nice night!! I was told he is 6'4" in reality.

I'm about 6'3 and walked by Sherod on Saturday night to do the old height comparison. He was eye level with me. I could buy 6'4 but no taller. In his defense, he wasn't wearing the 2 inch high tops that all of these guys are measured in these days.
97, did you neglect to mention that you were wearing your austin powers italian suede boots with 2" heels?

97, you know there is a penalty for drinking while message boarding. Not sure what the penalty might be, maybe others can suggest one. OSC

As always, the penalty is to take another shot...97, you know there is a penalty for drinking while message boarding. Not sure what the penalty might be, maybe others can suggest one. OSC
