In fairness, I don’t recall any of those you mentioned getting as much praise as Duggan has since he stepped on campus.I have no idea, I’ve never seen him play. Two years ago (or even a year ago) people were saying the same thing about Shawn Robinson. We’ve had a few highly regarded kids come through here in recent history, which one was remotely able to come in and light it up as a true freshman? I think it’s just expecting way way too much for a kid who last year was playing high school ball in Iowa. And we are talking this upcoming season. How about giving him a year or two to kind of figure things out a bit before thinking he’s our best chance at an 11-1 type season? Do you remember how overwhelmed SR, pachall, Sawyer, Boykin, Matthews and even Dalton looked as freshman, much less true freshman?
Not sure if you subscribe to 247, but there are a lot of very promising nuggets on him (from coaches, not fans).
