'20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)

[jcru]

same. I like House

[reef]

He’s my # 4 to keep behind Cam Fuchs and DG

[RhowdyRam02]

I hope House decides to stick with URI. If used correctly, I think he could be a stud next year.

The only way to use him correctly is as a sixth man microwave guy who gets a bunch of run when he's hot and a lot of bench when he's not. Basically Fatts Russell's freshman season.

A. Will we have enough talent to use him like that and
B. Will he come back if we tell him upfront that's his role?

02, my answers to your questions as of today are:

A. No
B. No

Hopefully we can find someone better than Jaden if not he will probably be back

could start from a worse baseline, I spose

[steveystuds06]

I want House back. I think he'll be a very good player for us next year. We need some impactful players back...

[STC]

I don’t understand those that think we should move on from House. Our teams sucks and House can score the ball.

[SandorClegane]

This is awesome. Totally legit.

I think Sandor knows it was a cheeky photoshop edit by Rhody Barstool. That being said, what is Tim McGraw's workout routine? Dude is 56 and looks yoked, like he's preparing to be Goldberg's tag team partner at Wrestlemania.

[ElmCityRhody]

ahh.. you are right... more of a dig at barstool..
but it did make me waster 5 mins of my time looking it up so i guess they got me !

Count me in the team House camp. Without a true PG and playing 1/2 the year as the #1 target for a defense, he managed to be a pretty efficient scorer jumping up a level from what he was used to. 14 ppg in the A10 isn't nothing. Nice to have a guy capable of going off at any point.

1 year left I think he'll be motivated and a key if we want to do anything noteworthy next year.

Hear hear! Jaden is one of the only guys that had more good games than bad.

It's hilarious some people wanted him and Green gone

The keaneyblue.com psychosis.

Inexperience bigs that didn't know how to clear out space for him to drive. Luis being slow. Ways having the correct pace, but no threat to score, Zek and Weston being no shows offensively. He had Green helping and that's it.

It'll be much easier for him to score with a PG that can push the pace and command attention from defenses. As well as an older more complimentary Fuchs, Green and a wing player that isn't a zero.

I would agree from the outside looking in. You make some good points regarding his game.

Archie and staff are around these guys every day. If they want someone back, its with good reason. We've seen talented players under Archie who don't fit the culture the staff is trying to build move on. If he is dogging it in practice, a problem in the locker room, getting in trouble academically etc. I would think an honest conversation would take place and they either commit to buying in or they don't come back. So if they want them back, I want them back!

Ya, I don't get anyone that doesn't want House. House got better as the year went on. He was busting his ass on the defensive end. Yes, he had moments of frustration, but sometimes it's tough for good players to play well and watch your teammates suck and keep losing. Last year was frustrating for everyone. Hopefully, he'll mature and not have those games where he seems to be checked out.

Also, our starting 4 shot 43% from 3 and dropped 14 a game after not playing half the year. I don't think we could have asked for a better year from Green. He had some bad moments, but Green will have an entire season and should be in better game shape this time.

Green was waaaaay better than I thought he'd be. I watched a couple LT games and he was just a streaky, solid defender/role player type of guy.

Dude had a sprained ankle half the time as well and the illness. He and House are all conference caliber.

Yeah I do have to admit a 1-2 scoring combo of DG and Jaden is pretty darn good especially with a guy like Hammond flying up and down the floor , hopefully we can find some defenders that was our major problem

We got Farrell. He's one dimensional at the moment - but a long kid who commits and locks people down defensively is fine on a team that has 4 other scoring options.

House will get help just by having a PG. If Hammond winds up taking over as the starting PG, it feels like we're just a wing away...unless we go 3 guards and House/Luis/Estevez are playing for 2 spots, with Farrell coming in as a defensive specialist.

I'll tell you what, watching Hammond got me an unfortunate amount of excited.

[Iggy1979]

I'm all for adding transfers who will increase the basketball IQ of the team and provide leadership. I'm less interested in stats.

[bigappleram]

You kinda need both. Best teams have their best players also be their best leaders/hardest workers.

A team full of TJ Buchanan's isn't going to win a lot of games either. Hopefully the staff can bring in some high character kids who can also play.
