DC3 - Donald Carter III Verbals

Re: DC3 - Donald Carter III Verbals
I like is highlight video, seems to play a very similar game to Vinnie. I don't know if his first step is quite as quick at this point but he looks to have a little more size and finishes strong. Solid consolation prize to Banks IMO.

Re: DC3 - Donald Carter III Verbals
What makes no sense . . . They discuss point guard options, and Cook isn’t even mentioned. The high school kid and Griesel? Really, and not the guard you’ve had in the progrum for 3 years? Let pull Griesel away from the basket, his bread and butter, and have him handle the ball? Come on . . .
If we were a slow pace team with Vinny handling, it will get slower yet. Let’s hope DC3 heals fast.

Cook is a wing all day long and twice on Sundays. Not a primary ball handler. Spot up shooter. Didn't play PG for Park center, either.

Re: DC3 - Donald Carter III Verbals
If worst case scenario is 24 weeks, he’s still back for game one. Losing all the time to gel with his teammates at practice will be tough to lose, though.

Have heard Coach Richman on the radio a few times this offseason and more than once he has singled out Cook and had good things to say about him.

Really talented kid who finally has a big opportunity to get minutes. Didnt play much at all as a freshman and decided to take a red shirt last year. Really hope he can put it together this year, has a ton of potential.

Yes, I watched him play in HS, so I know his strengths. But Griesel is? Your center spends a lot of time on the perimeter, so Griesel has helped inside to compensate. Moving him to point leaves a pretty soft middle.

We just signed one late in McKinney when Cam left. The timeline on DC3 injury would have him back in December at the latest as long as all goes well, if he misses a couple games the freshman can handle it.

Skunberg is in no way a PG. I also think he's going to get some good quality playing time as a scoring threat and they are going to need him off the ball.

Watching him play several times, he is better off the ball. He can create his own shot but that was in HS. I hope he can do that in college ball. But he is better suited for off guard play. He will be fun to watch.

B. SKUNBERG and G. NELSON both played guard but they don't score as many points.

Skunberg for sure. Maybe I'm greedy but I just want to watch Nelson get minutes. That boy got skills.

He would get minutes at the Point if he’s the best 1 on the team, which was the assumption before he got hurt. The other 1’s right now are Griesel & McKinney. He could indirectly affect Hayes’ minutes if Griesel got minutes at the 4, but not directly.
Before the season started it was DC and McK competing at the 1, and most of us thought It was DC’s job. But credit to McK, he’s played pretty well.

This was my thought with Griesel moving from PG. He's gonna play the same minutes so I thought Hayes would be most likely see the effects of that move. With the positionless offense they play who knows though. I just want to see a legit PG would can create off the dribble to round out the offense. I miss my Vinnie.

Zastrow, Coleman, Lundberg, Dupree, Kabellis, Hunter all played point over the last 10 or so years as well. Even Miller and Jacobson. So, no they aren't the last three. Three best of the last 15 years, yes. Anyway, Griesel has done well at point, but allowing him to play out of the post sometimes whenever Carter is available could really help this team out. Not sure who loses out on minutes.

Griesel definitely had his best game at the point against TCU, limited turnovers much better and did a good job finding open teammates. He's still just not the guy that can go get around somebody and get to the basket though and that's why we need DCIII back. McKinney I thought has done a pretty solid job when in and him and Griesel have played at the same time regularly so the person who's minutes I see falling off would be Skunberg, he's not quite there yet. Grant Nelson has been playing very well the last couple outings I don't see his minutes decreasing at all. MHH could see a decrease but I'm thinking Griesel, MHH, Eady and Cook could all scale back a few minutes to stay fresher on these back to backs. Skunberg's 16 mpg though will likely go down to next to 0 other than if somebody gets in foul trouble once DCIII is in the lineup.

It will be fun to watch Carter III to see what he can contribute , does anyone know his timeline ?

And Tyler Witz. But nobody that saw or was going to see significant minutes so it makes sense with the transfer portal so open this season that they would look to find playing time elsewhere. Only one I'm bummed about is Knotek, he's a great player just for some reason was on Dave's shit list.

I do not follow the basketball recruiting that well. But it seems Dave always has people transferring? Is it just me, but maybe he needs to recruit people that will buy in the program? Seems basketball has more transfers than football the size difference is pretty big
