MozingoWasFilthy said:Burgess was a very nice piece (43% from trey-land)...............and I'm hoping Rozzell turns the corner this year.
We've had Dom Jones, Michael Doles, BA Walker, Jesse Pellot-Rosa, Derrick Reid, Troy Daniels, Darius Theus, Brad Burgess, Brandon Rozzell, even Nick George/Troy Godwin (nearby MD), Mark Adams, Wil Fameni (Amelia Academy), Mike Anderson, etc. Varying degrees of studliness from this "local" bunch.
We're a mid-major..........we're not getting the cream of the crop. However, we've "mined" the second-tier very well.........and uncovered some real gems.
We've had some fairly nice VA/MD representation over the past eight years IMO..........despite the 3-4 yr coaching tenures, which, by the way, I'll take any day of the week if they are the result of success, titles, dancing, etc. UVA, Tech, UR would love to have our record/success/post-season appearances over the past eight yrs.
Ask Xavier alum the same thing.........they lost Gillen, Prosser, Matta, Miller to BCS-land because they regularly danced. We lost Capel/Grant for the same reason(s). I hope we lose Shaka in 3-4 yrs because we've danced some more.

Maxwell has athleticism, but didn't display much other than his ability to dunk and inability to keep his cool.

bighorn said:XjohnX's criticism of Maxwell is interesting for this reason: when you actually see a person play a full game (as opposed to YouTube highlights and reading often-slanted scouting service reports), you observe the full package, the flaws blended with the brilliance ... and obviously that's the best route to travel in any evaluation.
