I get where Alex is coming from, but I did enjoy reading your post over and over. (Not everyone has or will read every player profile.)  It keeps firing me up for the season everytime I read it!  Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoosiers!!!!!!

Pat Knight was a tremendously determined player at IU.  When coming in Pat Knight was not regarded as a marksman type of shooter that Pat Graham was.  Graham was regarded as an offensive weapon from deep and and excellent FT shooter.  AE follows this trend.

Trey is #8, and will be most likley 6″10 by the time he gets to Btown. Forgetting about Hanner? 6″9+ there and will play the 4 and Zeller will be 5 over Jurkin! So you will have three close to 7 footers at the 3-4-5. with Yogi/Blackmon PG, Harris???/Ron, or fill in the blank bc there will be prob 5 players who will be at the SG! and remember that J. Hollowell is 6″7ish also! so The size will be there. That is also not counting D Davis 6″6, Hartman 6″5, and couple of the bigger names that might sign also! Should be G-Town/UCONN sized team by 14′ ha

Thank you.  I was still in my single digit years when I first saw Pat Graham play in high school, and was surprised even then how he took the game over.  Once he got to D1 Big Ten Basketball he didn’t slow, the other players sped up.  When the foot injuries started happening, well that was tough for someone with limited athleticism to overcome.  A wild comparison can be made to Maurice Creek as well as far as the frequent and unfortunate injuries are concerned.  Mo has athleticism and more advantages with better medicine and rehab programs than Pat Graham had.  Different injuries, but if Pat Graham could lend support to Mo, I bet he would be all ears.

Peru players are lucky that all Austin did was hit he game winner, he could have lost his cool when his brother suffered the cheap shot and inflicted some cheap shots of his own.

But, I think that shows his character and I would have had a bad attitude last year too playing for Hamilton Hts, playing thru pain, and having a disappointing SR season when I had the pressure on me that AE did.

I was thinking a more athletic Pat Knight.

He can look like Stitch on the Jersey shore..but if he clunks 10 footers and whiffs on FT’s..it ain’t gonna matter. TP has to board and defend to earn his time..and if he goes the season with only one moving high screen called against him..it will be a good year for TP..and I LIKE the kid..

If all things are equal..most coaches will not disrespect a senior..unless the younger talent is considerably better. As a shooter..I don’t think AE is better than Roth..both are stand still gunners who need a kick out or screen to get a shot off.. His best opportunity might be to become a better defender..something Roth can not offer.

You must have paid a lot for these words, you are reusing them so often. Hope you get your money’s worth. Personally I would prefer to read something relevant to the article and keep it fresh.

I’d like to think Pritchard’s new physique may help him to run the floor more effectively.  He’s lost quite a bit of weight.

Sometimes, I would like to change the bb rules and have 8 players on court at same time, from same team.  So many of these guys seem so deserving of more playing time. IMO

“Hornsby!” is the exclamation that I still use to this day when I jack up a three. (which is usually a brick)
