I am all for a good basketball player. Tired of the "athletic" masonry majors.

How many Petrie types play for Davidson? High basketball IQ and skill set would be desired also.
Agreed, that's what I meant by a basketball player. High jumpers are worthless in an anti-rebounding atmosphere.
Saw Nick working out in the Robins Center tonight. I am always surprised how big Nick looks. He appears to be the best pure shooter we've had at UR in a number of years.
You guys will believe me sooner or later that we got at least two very good players.
Yep, Nick may be truly 6'3", but when he was on ESPN on an AAU game last summer, I said he looked like a legit 6'5"-6'6" wing, for which I got challenged on here. But all of these guys extend their height listing a little, and in that game with alot of top talent, he looked to have good size and legit talent. Really good recruiting class, but would be great to finish off with one or two more legitimate big forwards.
Sounds to me like you are actually 6'6" and just need a better yardstick.
Yes, I am very familiar with this game, 97 would be listed at 6'5" if he were a D1 prospect, at least that is how a lot of them do this. I am 6'2 1/2 and people think am 6'4 or 6'5.
lol. little slim for a Gigantor. maybe we'll call him Spider in 4 years.
Nick's senior highlights up on his Hudl page. By his highlights he should definitely help the shooting of the lineup.
So many long threes early in the shot clock, Curry has had a big impact on the game.
Nick has zero qualms about taking long three's whenever. It will be interesting to see how that evolves with our offense. Mooney will certainly want him to get a better look than some of the shots he took in high school, but yet he can make them.
I have no problem with a good shooter taking an open shot in his range early in the shot clock. you may not get that open look again later.
Agreed, I remember Kendall shooting 3's on fast breaks so often. If you are a great shooter and you're open you should take it, regardless of time on the shot clock (except end game situations, etc). This is especially true for us, since we are so unlikely to grab an offensive rebound (i.e. no need to wait for your teammates to get into good rebounding position).
Nice article on Nick...
