I think Reese can be a good player but I wouldn't mind possibly seeing him redshirt this season. You know he was a Top 250 player (Not 150 I know thats a measuring stick) out of HS and was a really good rebounder and can step out and shoot the 3. I would just think UT might redshirt him this year if they could. What does everyone else think on that?

No, we need that scholarship back sooner rather than later.

Reese will be better as well not having to play with Hall and Trae on the floor. You guys don't give labrum surgery and d1 physical basketball any merit whatsoever either.
No player can be called on every so often to make shots in must make situations. His year to be successful with a lot of pt will be next year.

I get the injury issue last year, but from all accounts he's not looking any better this year. He's currently about 12th on our bench, and likely to see a decline in minutes this'n year.

He's behind Stokes, Maymon, JRich and Mcrae? He's a tweener 3 and 4. Who else passed him on the depth chart? I haven't even looked at it that closely. Problem is right now, imo, that he was brought in to spot up shoot, but with his size, we need him down low and he's not a down low player.

Have you seen Reese play? Just because he got beat out by a talented freshmen doesn't matter.. Moore's a good basketball player and he got beat out by a true PF. Reese is still a sophomore, some players spark their junior/senior year

He's been passed by Moore and Davis (freshman)

You don't know that.. Is there some type of speculation we're going to kick him off the team to maybe get another 3* player. It's one thing to make room for a 5* but we're taking our chances we'd get a better recruit.

Like I said, he's a tweener. Davis is a low post kid and Moore is a former pg that takes it hard to the rim. Reese is a spot up shooter and decent passer that can get a couple of rebounds. He's a role player. Moore has his role and Davis has his.

Remember the days when players played all four years? You can still develop into a better player.

Just so happens to be Moore & Davis' roles are much bigger than Reese's

I was impressed with both Davis and Moore today. AJ can help us down low. I was hoping to see a little more from Ndiaye and Reese but they both played and they will come along.

Here's the issue, Moore is the same class as Reese, both sophomores, Davis is a freshman. So if Moore & Davis keep developing, even though Reese may develop he'll likely stay behind those other 2.

How many minutes did Reese play tonight? How about Moore & Davis?

Dude there's nothing wrong with cheering for Reese. I don't think he's going to be a contributor, but I would obviously be Stoked if he does. iKrag is smart enough to know when he's wrong, so let's see if Reese makes any noise.

But yeah, it's hard to imagine Reese contributing. Obviously iKrag sees something the rest of us don't.

Better recruit? If we can't do better....our future is very bleak!!!!
