Thanks for the links, OSU. Not to keep beating on the guy, but rather to possibly help explain why we're seeing what we're seeing. I found this evaluation done by the site Future150 to be especially perplexing:
"SCOUTING REPORT
Strengths:
Crosby is a pass first point guard
who always plays under control and is seemingly never bothered by pressure. He has a fluidity to his game that makes it seem as though he almost glides around the floor. He is a fantastic floor general
who can take over a game with his passing ability."
I emphasized those 2 points of Future150's evaluation because we have rarely, if ever, seen those traits out of John since he became a Flyer. Either they were basing their scouting reports on unsubstantiated, anecdotal accounts (and not first-hand observations), or maybe he just "freezes" with the pressure of being a D-I floor general.
Maybe it's simply "stage fright"? Dunno. But it's happened to others over the years, and maybe it happened to him, too. Just to give him some benefit of the doubt.
