Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
I hear ya and I don’t disagree. Other players need to be capable of handling the ball but, I still favor a primary ball handler.
And yes, I do predate 1995 but Cousy was a bit before my time. That said, I would be very happy with a Jeff Downtin ( coached under DH ) type of PG - as a more recent example.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Both are true. Yes you need multiple ball handlers and guys that can create offense off the dribble...but it's also good to have a floor general and facilitator at PG that can run a team.

No point guard. A 6’8” guy or a 6’10” guy bringing the ball up. Nearly everyone on the floor can handle the ball at an elite level. Like it or not(I mostly don’t like it) that’s the modern game.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
We desperately needed a big man, a scorer or two to make up for Ish, and a point guard. I think House and Tyson help with the first two needs. I hope we land a point guard next then I'll take a breath.
However, I do like Rivera's upside as well. He also has brutal FT% numbers, but he's a freak athlete and looks like he could develop into a decent shooter. Nice form.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
You need a floor general to be good at this level. Just think about the last two years, Jeremy Shephard was a fish out of water trying to play the point and this year we doubled down on no competent point guard and a pathetic offense.hrstrat57 wrote: ↑1 year agoWatch your Boston Celtics.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
House heard from a host of Power 5 and Big East programs after announcing he would leave High Point with two years of eligibility remaining. In-state rival Providence, Butler, DePaul, Virginia Tech, Louisville, Florida State, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and Utah were all competing for his services.

Didn't used to be that way.

It's like they don't want the info getting out.
Play AAU EYBL, etc in summer all the stats are available. Easy to find

I don't know why the stats are not public but I have some ideas.
Do you PMMM have any 1st hand knowledge of the playing ability of the two incoming freshmen?
Still going with you belief that David Cox did no damage to the URI MBB Program as we enter year 6 of the Fall of Rome? I mean Rhody? That was Cox induced?

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
I agree, I hope the frosh are good, as we all do. But man it’s hard to get excited about them when you basically know nothing about them and all you have is Archie’s less than excellent recruiting from last year to go by. We were told last year’s recruiting disappointment was because he and Kenny were not in college b ball the year before, these kids committed only a few months later…that’s all it took get in on top A10 talent…a few months? I hope so.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
I guess I remain confused by the “recruiting disappointment” last year line of thinking. Rory is going to be a solid role player, Weston still has promise as a starter, Foumena is an unknown but Bilau was excellent until hurt. You got 3 maybe 4 guys in your first class who can contribute on a team. If Bray or Ant had worked out (both high risk / high reward recruits) it would have been a very good first class. It was the leftover guys (except Ish) who disappointed. Keep stacking 3/4 players a year who are good and you have a team that can compete even with roster turnover.RIFan wrote: ↑1 year ago I agree, I hope the frosh are good, as we all do.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, that’s what this is for. I rate last year’s class a disappointment. Yes, some was bad luck that contributed to the disappointment.

Hutch - couldn't even crack the floor - transferred
Harris - never even made it onto campus
Freeman - talented player but kicked off
Weston - showed potential in a few games, other games looked very lost
Rory - decent for the last few weeks shooting the ball, cannot play defense at all
Bilau - showed flashes, injury prone
Foumena - jury is still out
We won 9 games. It was a complete disappointment.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Thanks for posting the interview, Giovanni.
I found the near end of the video encouraging (considering he will only be here 2 years) where Jaden is asked what he hopes to accomplish at Rhody? He listed: win; A10 Championship; NCAAT (since he hasn’t played in one yet).
Encouraging to me because the staff’s timing to attain a potential NCAAT bid must align with what Jaden hopes to accomplish while here within 2 years otherwise, he wouldn’t commit to Rhody.
Go Rhody!

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Dug a little deeper into some game film on Jaden House today.
First I watched this game against a D2 school. Yes it's a D2 school, but be completely dominated and probably would have scored forty if the coaches didn't rest him for most of the game.
17 minutes 8-10 FG 6-6 2P 2-4 3P 5-7 FT 23 points
Exactly what you want to see against that type of competition.
Then I watched this film from his game at UK in December of 2021. Obviously he struggled in this one. His whole team got demoralized. Still made some shots. Scored 8 points and definitely looked like he belonged athletically.
Before that Kentucky game he played a very nice game against Michigan State. He pretty much kept his team competitive for the entire game. In these highlights you see him do it all. Makes tough threes, jumpers, free throws, takes it to the basket and scores on them in a very impressive manner, passes the ball well. Going into that game the commentators brought up that he was shooting 42% from three. So it's possible he can improve on his 27% from last year.
6-9 FG 3-4 2P 3-5 3P 3-4 FT 18 points.
He also had a 17 point game against Notre Dame earlier that season too.
All that production against the best of the best from a whole season ago and he got better this past season and will be better after an offseason here.
I think he's a lot better than a lot of these doom and gloomers want to believe. Dude is a big time get.

Do you have 1st hand knowledge of how many AAU games and HS games anyone on this board has been to? Or how many I've been to? Like many, I have not seen either play in-person.

Dubsky switched high schools his senior year. I can't find anything a single box score on either incoming recruit. I don't know his minutes per game or whether he starts or not.
Didn't used to be that way.
Seems the prep schools (or at least certain prep schools) now want you to pay to watch their games. I refuse to do that. No stats available
It's like they don't want the info getting out.
Play AAU EYBL, etc in summer all the stats are available. Easy to find
Prep schools are a secret.
No stats on either player, not even for a single game
I'm told I can pay to watch them on internet or go see them live.
I don't know why the stats are not public but I have some ideas.
Do you PMMM have any 1st hand knowledge of the playing ability of the two incoming freshmen?
Still going with you belief that David Cox did no damage to the URI MBB Program as we enter year 6 of the Fall of Rome? I mean Rhody? That was Cox induced?
I'm guessing Jay Wright damaged the Villanova program too, right? And Kyle Neptune too? The program is in shambles. I mean after all, look how bad Villanova was this year. They'll never have another successful team.
David Cox left behind a lousy team...not a lousy program. Do you understand the difference between a team and a program? Scratch that question. I know the answer is no, you don't. (Lavall Jordan didn't damage the Butler program. He just didn't win enough games. Same thing at URI. That is my point. Get over it and move on. Somebody can be a lousy company CEO, not make the profit goals but the company can still be strong and bounce back.)

My question is how many years can a company have lousy results before it is called a lousy company. ???

I take great pride in the fact I am the only one expecting great players here. Honestly, it's an honor that I am the only one who expects great players here. It's what I expect. Why should I expect anything less?

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Great breakdown! It's fun watching these games, right? You get a much clearer picture of what type of player were getting compared to the quick highlight videos. I agree with you. I'm high on House. He's gonna be fun.PeterRamTime wrote: ↑1 year ago Dug a little deeper into some game film on Jaden House today.
First I watched this game against a D2 school. Yes it's a D2 school, but be completely dominated and probably would have scored forty if the coaches didn't rest him for most of the game.
17 minutes 8-10 FG 6-6 2P 2-4 3P 5-7 FT 23 points
Exactly what you want to see against that type of competition.
Then I watched this film from his game at UK in December of 2021. Obviously he struggled in this one. His whole team got demoralized. Still made some shots. Scored 8 points and definitely looked like he belonged athletically.
Before that Kentucky game he played a very nice game against Michigan State. He pretty much kept his team competitive for the entire game. In these highlights you see him do it all. Makes tough threes, jumpers, free throws, takes it to the basket and scores on them in a very impressive manner, passes the ball well. Going into that game the commentators brought up that he was shooting 42% from three. So it's possible he can improve on his 27% from last year.
6-9 FG 3-4 2P 3-5 3P 3-4 FT 18 points.
He also had a 17 point game against Notre Dame earlier that season too.
All that production against the best of the best from a whole season ago and he got better this past season and will be better after an offseason here.
I think he's a lot better than a lot of these doom and gloomers want to believe. Dude is a big time get.

Yeah I've been a big fan of these long-form highlights. Thank the lord for the people that feel like spending all that time editing these lol.steveystuds06 wrote: ↑1 year agoGreat breakdown!

You really can get a very good feel for a player in these. You just don't see absolutely every play, but it definitely has most of them.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
A little break from all the talk about whether Buru is going pro or not.
Check out this basketball arena at High Point. Pretty damn cool in my opinion. It seats 4,200 and looks like a beautiful place. It is part of a convention center/hotel as well. If you click on the video halfway down this page you will see this as well as some really nice suites. And they have a practice court.

Having seen this I had to check out how much it costs to go to High Point ($65,676) and its endowment (139 million in 2020 but it looks to be quite a bit higher now as three families gave the school 100 million dollars in 2022). Would love to have a building like this on the Kingston Campus.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Someone had called them out on social citing their arena and overall sports investment. Reinforces the point that they take their college sports seriously in the south. That arena is awesome.4Diffs wrote: ↑1 year ago A little break from all the talk about whether Buru is going pro or not.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
Let's go! As Archie said, House is a proven D1 scorer and will make an instant impact offensively. I'm excited to see him next season.

Really feels like this guy could be the key to how successful we can be next season. At least on the offensive end.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
He has demonstrated the ability to score at this level so, the talent is there. Now Archie and the staff need to scheme on O to get him good opportunities. Monty too, for that matter.

He may be the first ever unanimous pick here in the prediction contest to lead the team in scoring.

Re: '20 G Jaden House (High Point -> URI)
I hope House decides to stick with URI. If used correctly, I think he could be a stud next year.
