Lets just take Trier and Reaves. Both seem like good kids that want to be here. Yes please!

I like Reaves cause you don't have to run plays for him to score. To me its him or Mann for a ship. We could have 5 ships for that year so we may take 3 guards/swing guys.

I saw him play a few times this past year. His "problem" was the same "problem" I saw with Josh Hart. . .he was so adept at getting to the rim that I couldnt tell if he had a jump shot. Crazy athleticism. Apparently, he starts every game by kissing the backboard and then jumping center.
Dont know how many back court spots we have, but he has to be in the mix. Comes from a great program with a great coach.

Didn't realize Reaves is a lefty. Nice.

Indeed - a lefty that, combined with the long arms and quick hops, makes him a very strong perimeter shot blocker, going up as he does with his strong hand directly in front of the the righty shooters...

I remember a couple seasons ago we brought in Juvante Reddick from VCU and deemed him not skilled enough and passed on him. He's an impressive athlete though.

As for Josh Reaves, I want a guy who can get points the way he does. Off rebounds, Defense, Transition, and has an array of floaters and can leap out of the gym.

Sort of a better Brilly. I feel that; a few more JYD's. The Cincy's and Pitt's kill us with them.

Delarosa isn't in play. He named his 5 school finalists and we ain't on it I think discussing him was more of a question on recruiting philosophy than anything else. Having said that, crazier things have happened that a guy picking a school that wasn't in his last five. It wouldnt be the first time a school got in late or got back in after being cut, especially when gtown would be the premier program out of the ones he listed.... but, overall, yeah, time to get back to Reaves. Would be happy to see him snap up one of those scholarships soon, get some more chemistry going with Derrickson knowing they'll be teammates....

The kid's got to get an offer first, and it doesn't sound like the staff is sold enough yet to take it that far? Wonder what the hold up is?

Rooting like crazy for UVA to complete a soul-crushing OT loss for Twerps now....

Damn! Well, guess it's better that I not use up any karma points on UVA anyway...

I like Josh’s potential but he would have to improve his shooting a bunch before I became excited about an offer. The kid made 18 3’s total this year in 34 games
