Gen Z.Looks a bit like a millennial version of Rodman.
He's a power forward.I read he shoots 30% from the 3's. Just great. Dixon has always recruited lousy shooters.
True but he isn’t far off from the shooter thing….we’ve never had a consistent and smooth buckets guy sadly.He's a power forward.
Never? Desmond Bane hit 50% from the field.True but he isn’t far off from the shooter thing….we’ve never had a consistent and smooth buckets guy sadly.
You beat me to the punch.Never? Desmond Bane hit 50% from the field.
Bane was the closest we’ve had sure, but I’d argue that he wasn’t, at least when he was at TCU, that true scorer than can completely change momentum of and take over games. Whether that was due to the system, I don’t know but personally, I felt we should’ve let him shoot way more often.Never? Desmond Bane hit 50% from the field.
I don’t know…by his senior year he could take over a game like he did against KU.Bane was the closest we’ve had sure, but I’d argue that he wasn’t, at least when he was at TCU, that true scorer than can completely change momentum of and take over games.

That’s what I’m saying we haven’t had in years. Really feel like a true smooth consistent jump shot scorer would make us far more diverse and harder to defend rather than what we’ve been lately.
As it relates to 3-point shooting, we were 100th in 3 point shooting percentage, out of 351 teams. Could we be better, sure, but you are not going to improve that with a 6-8 player.True but he isn’t far off from the shooter thing….we’ve never had a consistent and smooth buckets guy sadly.
What? I don’t mean this specific guy that’s transferring, I mean just a shooter in general. Yeah, this guy probably isn’t helping that whatsoever, sadly.As it relates to 3-point shooting, we were 100th in 3 point shooting percentage, out of 351 teams.

Here was his scouting report coming out of HS.
An alert player with instincts and top-notch athleticism. Has solid size for a small forward but does need to gain strength. High energy player who can both start the fast break and finish it. Solid all-around skill game but has room to improve weak hand. Shooting is developing and has potential. Very active defender who is a terrific shot blocker at 6-8. He as the athleticism and upside to be a potential lottery pick in time.
The average height of the top 50 3-point shooters was 6-4.
Calipari to Arkansas
Zach Edey was the 75th rated center in the 2020 class. A lot of programs missed out on him.A whole bunch of guys will be playing tonight for Purdue and Uconn that Dixon would never consider taking. White guys that lack athleticism that can shoot and know how to play basketball.

Ready to contribute to TCU's bball NIL? This guy will cost between $1.5-2 million (that was what KU paid Hunter Dickinson).
