Fatts is an attention seeker. He hasn't gotten the same respect as Jeff and Cyril because he hasn't shown that he deserves it. He disappeared when the going got tough. His senior year is his last chance to man up, or will he disappear.

I love Fatts. We're all different. He's growing each year. He's also a bit shorter than most guys on the floor and still manages to put up big numbers on most nights. I appreciate and value Fatts as a player. Can't wait to watch him next year!

Maybe a Fatts can be like Earl Boykins who played many years in the NBA and was only 5’5. ??

I think Fatts need to average closer to 30 mins game next year. We were running him close to 40 every game and I think it takes a toll.

I think that is why we are looking at a player like Gage - another senior guard with experience to carry the load with Fatts while the young guys get up to speed. I think I had the same issue with Tyrese who also played too many minutes last season.

I think it is. @daron_russell is no longer an active account. He has a much smaller Twitter presence because he favors IG over Twitter like much of the people his age.

If it is him, tweeted "#GORHODY" a short time ago.

72, if nothing else, has to be the most consistent, always some outta-control negative take on whatever subject. I usually read his posts and think to myself, 'I hope he gets all of his pessimism out here and is a joy to be around at home, otherwise he's probably a really lonely guy.'

Also, Fatt's isn't what 72 accused him of, he is an undersized, ultra-competitive alpha, which will always draw attention. On the court, a well coached, smart team can make that work to their advantage.

Pessimism.

Optimism has gotten me no where on this board.

If CBB was an individual sport these attributes would make him an athlete that I would like. Is this the third off-season that he has stoked rumors that he might transfer? I will enjoy watching Tyrese and Jacob play next year.

A PG who made his teammates better. Fatts was a gambling ball hawk and he was a clutch FT shooter. I see the good and the bad. I'll take Dowtin any day as a team player.

I can't see him getting drafted or even getting a 2-way deal. He can put up decent #s for low $ in the DLeague or probably do very well for himself in a good Euro League.

Fatts will end up in Europe.

Not big enough for defense in the NBA, and too inconsistent as a shooter.

No way is Fatts playing in the NBA at his size. He would have to have an outside shot like Jimmy Baron or better. He will never get to the rim in the NBA on a consistent basis. Europe is the right call

His stats and game are not disimiliar from Isiah Thomas at Washington his freshmen and sophomore years. More consistent shooting, get close to 40% from three and he has a chance.

I posted this in Tyrese’s thread but figured it’d be applicable here too.

Just caught a quick IG live with Tyrese and Fatts.

Tyrese was egging Fatts on saying “make the announcement bro, make the announcement, let em know, drop hints.”

Fatts was laughing saying “no announcement, no announcement.”

Tyrese shot down going to Temple when Fatts brought it up. Fatts also brought up Louisville and asked Tyrese if he thought the rule would pass.

Tyrese said he thought it wouldn’t, Fatts said he’d be bored sitting out and Tyrese goes “I won’t be bored, I’ll finally be able to live my life.”

I have changed my mind on this, if the rule changes Fatts is gone. Not to UConn though. My guess is WVU or Michigan.
