2. Along with that, he comes from a really good JUCO program that wins a lot. Again, that culture fits well with NDSU. His team has 5 guys who currently average over 10ppg...again a team that likes to share it and is well-rounded...much like NDSU.
3. Compared to our other current PGs (McKinney and Carter), appears to have a much better stroke. That has always been my biggest concern with the other two...there ability to knock down anything besides shots at the rim, but Guy appears to be able to not only get to the rim but also hit mid-range shots and the three.
4. Have to wonder what this means with Carter...starting to think he might not be back.
5. Finally, if this guy can be really solid next year, this team takes becomes even scarier. Not only can they continue to play with their current big line-up with Sam at the point, but they can also go back to a more normal look with a traditional PG. This provides the ability to really give teams different looks and make them have to prepare for a lot. It also helps what was an issue this season which was a guy that could create at the end of the shot clock and in late game situations.
