Title: Stanley Umude 6'6 South Dakota transfer G to visit Arizona 5/6/19
Post by: WILD on April 28, 2019, 10:23:56 PM
He put up 28 points against Kansas this past season, so he might be a good one. He would also have to red shirt if we landed him & I'm hoping we do.

So Miller did good by landing a 6'11 PF in Nnaji.
Then turns around and wants to bring in a 6'6 PF?
Did he not see how much of a disadvantage we were when we would have Lee as our PF on both ends of the floor?

CSM has said he wanted a more G oriented team and while he is not a G, he is the smaller more athletic player that can play multiple positions that CSM likes to use. I love Lee's game even at 6'7". Yes, more height and size would be nice as I have posted many times but CSM feels good where he is at after landing Zeke.

Sounds like we both would like the same things for this program.
For conversation sake, and I know we don't know, but do you saying this tell me that Miller would play this kid at SF/PF in 2020-21?

Edit: I enjoy Lee's game as well for his role on the team.
The problem I notice is his height prevents him more being more efficient.
Lee doing that at 6'9 and he may have already been in the NBA.

There's not a ton I can find on this kid but he seems to be pretty versatile at 6'6 or 6'7 and shot around 35% from deep. A lot of highlights of him are him finishing strong with contact at the rim so adding a piece that could play the 3/4 with strength could be nice

Remember in 97 we only had two bigs and both were skinny. We had some great 6'5" - 6'8" guys that were able to play all over the floor.

Even though my fanaticism does not go back that far, the game is VERY different than it was in 1997.

Alum, there are other ways to go about finding a player that you just mentioned, but I can at least understand the notion, whether I agree with it or not.
