He shot it a better percentage from 3 his freshman year than Scoochie. Archie would be all over AJ Harris. Heck, he's probably already called Thad this evening.

UD recruited AJ hard for several years. Matta swooped in last minute and landed him. Many schools wanted AJ to get to Kennard.
I often wondered if OSU was the right fit. Cut throat business.

Another season of returns are in. They weren't that good, and he wasn't that good. But he could still be a good target for Arch and competition for Steve.

Spike Albrecht is transferring from Michigan and is immediately eligible. Not a fit for Dayton but kind of hoping some PG-needy A10 program snatches him up.

Not sure Archie takes another point guard in the same class as Crosby. I understand people's bias for local players, but I am sure that would create a mess in more ways than one.

AJ Harris would have to sit a year so he would be a Sophomore when Crosby in a Junior. Archie must decide if he wants to take the 5'9" Harris or continue to recruit 2017 Pgs: Evan Gilyard (5'8") or Chris Lykes (5'6").
With Scooch and KD graduating, we def need more guards. I doubt we have 2 sub 6 foot guys though

Exactly. While Harris is sitting he would have a year to learn the offense so when Scooch departs, you'd still have 2 PGs on the roster who knew and could run the offense. If the coaches can get Gilyard or Lykes and they think those guys will be better, then go with them, but Harris is a nice fit on paper, especially because having watched Khari Price, Scoochie and Crosby in Archie's system, it's pretty clear to me that it takes some time to really master the offense. And the PG is really critical to the team... probably the most critical piece.

What is going on at Ohio State? Their 2015 class was ranked #5 in the country with 5 prospects who were all 4 stars. One of the kids transferred out in December and 3 more announced this week they were transferring. Why would 4/5 freshman transfer after 1 year? I hope everything is okay with Thad Matta. Are these kids jumping ship before bad news breaks?

I wouldn't mind landing 1 or 2 of these prospects

First, it was a bad tOSU season by anyone's standard, much less Matta's. Very likely for once, a whole gaggle of potential didn't materialize. I'm guessing they are leaving with his blessing. Great coaches don't stand pat.
Second, HS stars are full of themselves and don't want to be around a loser. Maybe they see the immediate future at tOSU and don't want to be a part of a reload.
Wow, the UD offices must be spinning doing all their homework on available transfers.

No need for a short guard scoring 2.8 pets for an NIT team. We gotta do much better.

OSU Transfers
I see where tOSU is losing some more to transfer. Daniel Giddens, and Mickey Mitchell, along with hometown AJ Harris. Austin Grandstaff transferred earlier during the season. What's up in Columbus?

Remember Jordan Sibert? Didn't do squat at Ohio State. Sometimes all you need is a fresh start.
Sometimes.

That recruiting class at OSU was soooooooo overrated...
A.J. can't shoot, and at 5'8 (he is no taller than that) it makes it a lot more difficult.
He would be ok at best, at UD.

Staten couldnt shoot a lick at UD. He ended up being a Big-12 Preseason POY. He may have been 5-10 in high heels. Shawnta Rogers tore the A10 a new bunghole at about 5-7.
Not advocating or dissing AJ. Just saying I dont think size matters a whole lot if you can play the game.

The thing to remember about Sibert, Harris and Javon Bess for that matter is that Archie knows these guys like the back of his hand. He recruited them and either he believes in their ability to excel in his system or he doesn't. We'll see, but I am the first to admit I thought signing Sibert was dumb. Lesson learned.

Actually Shawnta was 5'4. Thats why he wore 54 in college. If I'm not mistaken his kid is an incoming freshmen at GW next year.
That GW team with Rogers,Koul and Mesherikov(sp?) still gives me nightmares. They kicked our ass up and down the court in their time there. I think we beat them at UD Perryman's senior year. Other then that they kicked our asses

Basketball players at tOSU are step-children to the football team. It is sort of like football players at North Carolina. Who wants to be a four-year step-child when you could go to a basketball school and be the privileged son?

I might be in the minority but when Scooch leaves, I would rather have AJ Harris as my PG over Crosby due to the fact that Crosby looks to get his before getting others involved.

Thad's assistants are getting a lot of the blame. I think his health has marginalized his focus. He isn't long for the job imo. tOSU wants to compete for B1G championships in basketball. I look for Gene Smith to aggressively pursue a marquee prospect once the news comes out that Thad is stepping down, which will probably be soon now in light of these events? Something has to give. He just took them to the Final Four in '12. I believe the underlying cause is his chronic back pain and its advancement. The determining factor is do they have a prospect in mind who they feel is better than Thad. Is there one out there. I don't see one.....anywhere.

I think Archie now has higher basketball goals for UD than picking up players who could not start for mediocre teams, just because they are local.

I'd take AJ Harris right f'in now. Scoring isn't his priority...all he cares about is playing time and winning.

Not a matter of one or the other, since they will be in different classes and you need at least 2 pgs on the roster. As Crosby looks to be a scoring PG, it does stand to reason you might want the other to be a dish-first guy.

So again you think Archie would pass on Sibert now? If Dayton is now at a level where every guy we get is better than that guy, then I'm expecting multiple national championships!

How many people here really think Steve would have had better numbers than a lot of those had he played last season? There's something to be said about being a freshman and a coach that can develop talent.

For sure. Every year we hear about a Miami Valley prospect that stands out in another program. Those players, and those only are the local players I would like to see pursued.. Though the area is not the hotbed it once was due to population decline, it still produces its share of blue and red chippers.

Harris' height and position is about the only thing he has in common with Archie. Dude is a freak athletically. Archie got by on being tough, smart and a great shooter as you say.

So if AJ Harris had gone to Cleveland State and was tearing it up, you would be more in favor of a guy like that? Although the blue chippers probably aren't going to Cleveland State... so I guess I'm confused what you are saying.

So is 98% of all other basketball programs. And every other sport besides football at OSU. TBDBITL is heralded all around the country as the best university marching band. Wherever I've been where the band plays those fans are highly impressed and always make mention of the quality that sets them apart from the other marching bands. I have a friend who has dotted the I three times. The Spring marching band at tOSU is better than most universities' marching bands. There are only a couple other programs which could compete historically with TBDITL and one is USC.

Bad situations often lead to bad attitudes often leads to bad performance often leads to low playing time. It just is not as black and white as you'd like to make it.

I'm saying that regardless of where the players reside we should be pursuing the best. Archie has extended the reach in recruiting and if he saw AJ as a top prospect as a prep then he likely still does. The shape of the team may dictate that more now imo.
I thought that was the premise of Jack's post and I just added my angle.

But what if the local kids are really really good? Sibert didn't start at OSU and was a stud.
Heck, if we only got kids from greater Dayton area we would be loaded....the pool of 4/5* kids playing elsewhere from our own back yard is deep...
Kennard from Duke, Vinnie Edwards from Purdue, AJ Harris formerly at tOSU, Justin Bibbs from VaTech, Kyle Ahrens from MSU, Maverick Morgan at UI, Jaaron Simmons from OU, Xavier Simpson who has committed to UM...
If any of those kids wanted to come home I'd take them in a heartbeat!

And Adreian Payne would look really good as the second twin tower inside for us! Probably have eligibility snags but Calipari might try it

I don't think you were going there with this post, but even if he could field a team of all great locals, and be a great team, he shouldn't do it. If the local talent started drying up, Archie wouldn't have foothold in other areas like he seems to have in Chicago and hopefully developing in other places like Michigan, NY etc... When a favorite son(Scoochie for instance) of an area makes good at UD, it should widen the possibility of recruiting from that area in the future. Or, if you have an issue like BG had with Staten, it could be very costly to your recruiting if you put most of your resources to that area. Again, I don't think you were suggesting that, I'm just saying it's best to get a good mix from around the country.

So, yes, his minutes increased in the middle of the season where he was playing double digit mintutes(mainly because AM didn't like what he was seeing in Scooch and realized he needed rest regardless of the consequences) and then at the end he played 3 games under double digit, 2 games above and finished with only one double digit game in the final 6. 3 of his final 4 games he played less minutes than any other game during the season.
Next time look before you leap.
|
Finally had a chance to respond to this.
25+8 = 33. You listed 32 games. He did not play against William & Mary. If you're going to list his minutes in each individual game you should at least start by listing each individual game.
Breaking up his season into 3 pieces:
Games 1 - 9 (including 1 game he did not play): JC took 0.3 shots per minute played and played 6.25 minutes per game. His FG% was 33%.
Games 10 - 27: JC took 0.3 2 shots per minute played and played 11.4 minutes per game. (Yes, his shots per minute actually increased as his minutes increased.) His FG% was. . . you guessed it, 33%.
Games 28 - 33: JC took 0.17 shots per minute played and played 5.8 minutes per game (including 2 games where he played the least minutes of any game all year, excluding W&M where he played 0). Any guesses on his FG%? It was 33%.
Let's reset the argument here: Your point is that JC is a terribly selfish player and had his minutes limited because he shot too much, and my counter point is that AM must have told him to play that way. The stats show that JC took the same number of shots per minute during games 1-9 when he was playing 6.25 minutes per game as he took during the following 18 games when his minutes per game nearly doubled, and his FG% stayed exactly the same!
In the final 5 games his shots per minute plummeted by half, and his minutes plummeted back to 5.8 per game.
Maybe, just maybe, AM liked and encouraged the aggressive 0.3 shots per minute play and rewarded it with more minutes as the season wore on (as I said in my counter argument) since the stats clearly show his minutes per game increasing significantly while his shots per minute increased.
Maybe AM wasn't getting something else he wanted in those 5 last games. Let's explore that.
It's interesting to note that during games 1-9 his TO per minute were 0.18, while in games 10-27 it was 0.05. In games 28-33 his TO per minute went back up to 0.14. Do you think that might have had more of an impact on his minutes than the number of shots he was taking?
During games 1-9 his assists per minute were 0.14, while in games 10-27 it was 0.11. In games 28-33 his assists per minute fell off a cliff to 0.03. Do you think that might have had more of an impact on his minutes than the number of shots he was taking?
Maybe you should look before you leap, Smitty and cj. The stats do not show that JC was benched for the number of shots he was taking, as a matter of fact the stats show that as his shots per minute increased so did his minutes!! In the final 5 games, his turnovers shot up, his assists dropped, and no it's not because he was shooting too much because his shots per minute fell drastically as well.
EDIT: the last 5 games had more to do with SS's play than JC's play I think, and had nothing to do with the number of shots JC was taking.

State was 31-8 and 33-3 when Sibert was there, and had a couple of good teams. Last year they were 21-14 and not nearly as good. So again, I don't think Archie should have passed on Sibert. We needed a shooting guard.
I'll put my money on Archie not going after Harris. We need a frosh point guard in 2017, and only a transfer now, if Crosby does not stay. What message would Archie send to Crosby if he brought in a kid who is about the same in talent. On top of that would Harris come here and risk playing behind Scoochie and John. He appears to be upset stuck behind another freshman, Lyle at State.
This whole conversation is a bit silly. We have one scholly and our biggest need is a shooter or a big.

So Scoochie will have already graduated. And the message is the same he should be sending every kid. Earn your minutes. Archie's goal in recruiting is to get better at any and every position he can. Competition is part of the game.

I'm hoping the target is Josh Cunningham and the coaching staff sees a complete stud and are challenging him to be the best he can be!

So if any of them transfer it won't be a mystery why - most kid's think they can put up big numbers and when it doesn't happen they sometimes look to move on

One, Harris has to sit out a year so Scoochie will be gone. 2017 class will have a point guard, unless Harris transfers to Dayton. Archie wanted Harris before and it hasn't changed

IMO, great programs recruit the best available players. Don't like it? Get better or go play for another school. We need to be the best we can possibly be next year, and worry about the year after that later.
It's not actually that extreme because you do have to keep an eye out for the future, but that's not too much of an exaggeration.
If we were Wright State we would have to worry about alienating the freshmen because transfers would come at a premium. At the other end of the spectrum is Kentucky who will get 5 new starters each year. We're somewhere in the middle but closer to Kentucky than Wright State.

Check out this kid who is transferring out of Maine:
http://www.goblackbears.com/sports/m...ann_issac_27aq
Charles Cooke basically.
Speculation is that A10 is a likely destination. See: https://twitter.com/JonAlba
Not sure we could pry him out of New England... but seems worth the effort to me.

Harris actually played on that team that went nowhere though. Sibert couldn't get off the bench.

I wasn't really going there. But I can.
Everyone I mentioned is a 4*+ (with exception of Simmons and Morgan, both 3*). All good players. UD recruited each one of those kids hard. While I agree and understand your point of wanting to recruit on a national level, I don't think had we landed any one or two of these kids it would have prevented us from going harder at any of the other kids. In fact, one could argue the opposite and say AM is spending too much time recruiting out of Dayton and letting too many 4* kids walk out of his back yard.
Had Kennard, Edwards, Gibbs and Harris all wanted to go to UD, I think AM would have taken them in a heartbeat. Take the best player you can get.

Milik Yarbrough is transferring from SLU. Won't be going to another A10 program, but he was a decent player. Guess he was not impressed by the Travis Ford hire.

Kendall Stephens is transferring from Purdue. Great shooter but very much seems in need of a fresh start. I could see him being a guy Archie goes after...

Most of his accomplishments were earlier in his career.
I dunno. He took 6 threes/game and made less than 2 per game for what basically was a 20 game season due to injuries and disfavor (4 more games he had minimal minutes on the court). Everything else in his stats is pedestrian. 60% ft shooter. Mid 30's inside the arc. Not much stands out.
I think we have Ryan, DD, Sam, Kyle, Scoochie who could shoot that % next year if Coach gave them the green light to average 6 threes per game. But Arch wouldn't anyway because his style is not to have one player cranking up that many threes and hindering the offensive movement.
And this business of shopping for the best offer while holding open his position to come back is strange team management.
I would pass on it.

A bit odd, but in theory I guess I'd rather take a guy in that situation vs a guy who is unwanted by his former team.

Stephens would have one year after sitting a year. Is known as an excellent outside shooter, but only shot 32% from three. Is buried on the depth chart at Purdue, a team with rather average guards. I am a Purdue fan, and would definitely pass on this kid.

The fact that Purdue still wants him back though suggests maybe there's more to the story, and he's a good kid.

It sounded like he had some things going on off the court that really affected him (not unlike what we've heard about Darrell Davis) but I didn't realize he was a sit one, play one transfer. Those are definitely the least coveted. For that reason alone, I take back what I said. Don't think he's a real likely candidate for Archie to go after with just one scholarship unless Stephens finds a way to graduate and could play immediately.

Some interesting info on AJ Harris transfer here:
http://www.sportsrappup.com/rapp-aro...etball-exodus/
"At the time of this original posting, Harris’ departure was not yet official but a reliable source told SRU on Tuesday night that news was imminent. The source added that Harris struggled academically and in retaining instruction from coaches.
Another source with inside knowledge of the program went further, saying, “He probably would not be eligible (next season).”
Like the other departing players, Harris also has “too many people in his ear,” according to the same inside source."

The article gives an OSU spin to the recent transfers (as to be expected by a long-time OSU beat writer), and any criticisms of Harris should be taken with a grain of salt.
Which isn't to suggest there isn't a grain of truth to the statements. Also, worth noting that after dumping on all the recent transfers, Rapp essentially calls Harris a good kid (he didn't do this for Giddens, Grandstaff or Mitchell).
I'd still love to see Harris at UD. A year off to get his academics in order and mature a bit, and I believe he'd be a three-year catalyst for the program.
Come on home, Amos.

UD has had a lot of experience getting player's academics in order so I'm all for Amos coming home!

Kevin Dorsey, one of three Minnesota guards suspended at the end of the season after a sex video appeared briefly on social media, is transferring.
He was highly recruited and averaged 6.5 pts as a freshman.

After all the sex-related drama around the U's basketball program the last few years, no thanks.

In comparison to other transfers on the market, there's a lot more film on Dorsey!

Not coming here, but in A10 news, GW sophomore guard Paul Jorgensen is transferring. Bummer for the league.

Yes, but can the film be viewed legally by anyone under the age of 21?

How does Vandy look at the Forward position next year? Do they have room for him to get significant playing time?

Typically, when are most transfers known? I know sometimes they wait til late like Meacham, but in general after what date will we know have a sense whether transfers will have an impact on our roster?
Personally, I would love to see the continuity of no one leaving. There is a lot of talent on this team and another year together could be great. Need to build chemistry and the trip to Europe is a perfect opportunity for that.

I'd say w/n the next month. Many college's will be wrapping up their 2nd semester in the next 6-8 weeks, and starting their summer sessions, not too long after, meaning those players will want to choose their next destination so they can plan for the move, change of scenery, etc... in the short time span that follows.

Kornet and Jones were juniors, but widely expected Jones declares.

From what I hear, this is the case. He and Drew are very close and Peters will likely follow him to Vandy. I have no published sources, just what I hear from the college coaches I have met over the years.

I know this has been a rumor and it's still just a rumor, but Jaylen Adams transferring from St Bonaventure to Texas would be a pretty big blow to the A10...
https://twitter.com/BonaBlog/status/717403425382772736
EDIT UPDATE: Apparently, he's just messing around, but this isn't the first time he's suggested he might rather be somewhere else: https://twitter.com/BonaBlog/status/717405824151322624

St Bonaventure

6'11" Malik Martin wants to transfer from the University of Southern California (USC). In Florida high school, he averaged 19 points and 12 rebounds. He was the fourth ranked player in the state of Florida. He is a sophomore. I know nothing about the guy but just ran accross an article on him and two other players wanting to transfer out of USC. I like the 6'11" part and the scoring and rebounding numbers in high school.

Unfortunately, a couple more A10 transfers announced today. Miles Reynolds out of SLU and LG Gill out of Duquesne. I never like to see good talent leave the conference. Reynolds is from Chicago, wonder if he will look to end up at Illinois or somewhere similar.

Alabama transfer Michael Kessens told @CBSSports that he's considering FIU, UCSB, Pepperdine, Wichita State, Dayton, and UC Riverside.

Kessens is a 5th year grad student who would be eligible right away. 6'9" forward, averaged 3 pts., 3 rebs. a game. Not overwhelming stats, but would provide another big body at a position we lack.

UD would be his 3rd college....Longwood, 'Bama, UD.
Since he's transferred once, he can't redshirt so he's a 1-and-done.
King Rollo's Royal Advice? - Pass.

Yes - one and done grad transfer. From Switzerland.
8 points, 5 rebounds 2 assists against Mizzou
8 points on 4-of-5 shooting vs then-No. 17 Notre Dame
7 points on 3-of-4 shooting in 15 minutes at Dayton
10 points, 7 boards at Ole Miss
I think he could be a useful player, but if they are going the grad transfer route, I'd really like to see them get a guy who can knock down threes. Kessens doesn't do that. Kessens does what Josh Cunningham does.
Maybe coaches like him as a guy who can back up Big Steve at center... but if Dayton is really after this guy then to me, that suggests either:
A) Someone is leaving
B) They really love the guys they are recruiting for 2017 and are just looking for something useful that won't burn a 2017 scholarship.

IMO the use of the grad transfer should only be used to fill a glaring hole, and then only as a last resort. Let the guys who have stayed here and worked hard get the minutes. Pass on Kessens.

He's tall, but 7 of the 12 guys we have on the roster are 6'6 or taller.
