Guy was 34th in the NCAA in assts last year on a team that shot 43% from the field. Every team can use a guy like that IMO but especially ours. We don’t have a lot of facilitators on next years team and he would suddenly make a backcourt that looked ridiculously thin 2 days ago look like one of the best in the BE.. You have to want this kid

And Aaron and Jabril both improved their shot somewhat. Maybe III can work a little magic with Collins as well. If we want Bracey in 2016, why not take Collins now as well? this!

I just have a hard time seeing a fifth-year guy coming into a situation in which the best player in the BE is at one guard spot, a talented sophomore is at the other, and a kid who was a starter the entire year as a freshman (LJ) is available to spend time at the two. (I get that it is conceivable Peak starts at the two and Tre continues to come off the bench, but the point is the same regardless.) Sure, there's minutes available in a backup role, but there's a limited chance it turns into anything more significant than that. Sure, I'd take him (or any fifth-year guy that has dribble-drive or superb shooting skills at a guard spot). But I just have a hard time seeing how that player would view Georgetown as the best match for him. Why not go to a high-major program at which you can start immediately? I don't maybe he wants to actually win some his last year.

I get that (particularly given where he's coming from), and maybe I'm wrong about the number of major programs with minutes at the point that figure to be pretty good.

I couldn't find the article but I remember reading that an injury to his shoulder in HS has hampered his shot mechanics for basketball.. I don't think he has full range of motion in it.. "Somewhat" for Aaron's shot improvement is a very liberal description Bubbles..

I think "somewhat" is very apt.

Now here is a pass first pg I think would fit well into JT3's system.. He would be great with the players on the team in 2016.. Staff needs to kick the tires on him for sure

Staff needs to kick the tires on him for sure The staff was pretty interested in him coming out of HS? Don't know if it's mutual though. I do agree, watching him in HS I think JTIII would like how he ran a team. Not explosive, but solid in many areas.

The number of transfers is mind boggling. I am a bit surprised we aren't losing anyone off our roster just based on the frequency of occurence.

Are there actually more or does it seem like more because we seem to be a little more invested in the transfer market than normal? I'm actually asking, not trying to be snide.

I don't know the answer to this question, but it sure seems like anecdotally that the amount of transfers has increased with time. I suppose it's not surprising. Transferring gives kids an extra year to improve, plus it allows for a new start. However, this is why I do not believe kids should be able to transfer without sitting out a year. A free agent sort of system allowing any transfers at any time would be crazy - it would lead to poaching from school to school, and I think you would see a huge increase in the number of transfers.

Understand your view and I, too, hate to think of the chaos that would ensue from allowing open transfers. Nevertheless, I cannot cannot help but side with the players, whose trust is placed in a coaching staff only to wake up and discover one April morning that the coach is bolting for a better opportunity at another program. The same is true when the school administration terminates the coach. I believe that if a coach leaves a program, voluntarily or otherwise, then the kids should not be restricted in transferring or required to sit out a year, provided that the player is on target to graduate on time. This creates an incentive for the player to maintain his/her studies but also recognizes that these kids should not be "punished" when the school loses or terminates a coaching staff.

Yeah, alternatively, we could always force the coaches to sit out a year...
