He didn’t play/score much the first half of the season. Over the last 15 games he averaged over 12 points per game. If he can improve on that and average 13-14 points for us that would be huge.
We landed BB Transfer Maxwell Evans
- Thread starter Francis Xavier
- Start date
One reason-Jamie is stubborn. Miles is a much better option at PG than RJ.
evans is clearly an upgrade over Easley and Mickey (neither appear to be power 5 players) as long as we do get some help up front.

why do people keep saying he is an upgrade over two players who he doesn't even play the same position?
right now the team is basically replacing rj with evans and is that enough to lift this team out of the downward trend it has be on the past two seasons?

huge in what capacity?
jeff van gundy has talked multiple times about players scoring points is going to happen in a game even on bad teams so is this a move that simply adds a player similar to rj and replaces rj's shots and points or can it start to turn around the direction of this team?
most likely i am very wrong and we have been told we have no basketball iq so i feel completely free in saying this, but is this move going to stunt the growth of the younger players who would be going into year 3 in the program and won't get those minutes?

Miles was uncomfortable bringing the ball up this season. He was very quick to give it up to Nembhard. Maybe that was by design.
Not saying he can’t become that player, but he didn’t seem to want to last season. That’s a part of his game I believe is going to be critical for him to develop.

Schloss needs to bring in a catcher named Max, pronto.

Problem is we keep saying this every year about every player. We need this guy to improve on this and we need that guy to be an upgrade over so and so. And round and round we go. Meanwhile the actual results seem to be a little bit worse every season. So very clearly there's not nearly enough of this improving and upgrading actually happening.

I thought he was a better ball handler too but the end of the season RJ seemed to get the ball more. Think that had more to do w him being the veteran.

He didn’t start off that way and then it seemed to be a shift where he was almost coached to give RJ the ball bc Dixon trusted him more as the experienced player?

If Dixon trusted #22 more than Miles, then he should be fired for incompetence,
He should be fired for about a dozen different reasons.

Possible but Miles has a nice ability to separate and get a quick shot from the elbow.
That said, he definitely preferred going right. I think that caught up to him a little bit as he got some games under his belt and scouts put a book together on him.
Again, not saying he won’t develop into more of a PG/SG hybrid, just didn’t look comfortable to me at point. Huge fan of Miles and hope he sticks around. He could end up one of the TCU greats.
