HuscurAdam Posted July 8, 2021 Report Posted July 8, 2021 In his almost 7 minute ASU highlight tape he shows good skill, but there were literally only 2 clips where he beat his man going left. He is entirely right-handed and someone a decent defender who is locked in on the scouting report should be able to shut down. Then again, he averaged almost 15 PPG against Pac 12 competition so what do I know? Looks like a volume scorer though, so I'm not sure he's the best fit for DONU. Quote

Dean Smith Posted July 8, 2021 Report Posted July 8, 2021 I’ve never seen him play but he seems to duplicate a lot of the same skill set that Kobe Webster brings to the team. He wouldn’t of come if we told him he might not get minutes so I’m sure they see a real role for him. Silverbacked1 and Chuck Taylor 2 Quote

Popular Post Nebrasketballer Posted July 8, 2021 Popular Post Report Posted July 8, 2021 Considering the alternative was for Nebraska to have an empty spot left from Banton deciding to keep his name in the NBA Draft… I don’t understand how anyone could think this is anything other than a great thing for the Huskers to get a player or this caliber with legitimate success at a Power6 conference school and that was getting looks from NBA teams before deciding to come back to play another season in college. He’s a grad transfer, so he has one season of eligibility, so he literally fills Banton’s empty spot for ‘21-‘22, and will leave that spot open again for the 2022 recruiting class. It’s a win-win.

Norm Peterson Posted July 8, 2021 Report Posted July 8, 2021 As a HS senior, he was named Chicago area POY by Chicago Sun Times. Here he is in his final HS game against Chicago Simeon and Talen Horton-Tucker. Verge scored 20; Horton-Tucker had 14 pts, 4 bds, 9 assists and 6 steals in the game.

Nebrasketballer Posted July 8, 2021 Report Posted July 8, 2021 Also, probably a good thing for Nebraska to keep connections to the Chicago area for future recruiting. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted July 8, 2021 Report Posted July 8, 2021 My only concern is his approach to team ball. We have talent in the back court and only one ball. How will the team accept his talent? aphilso1 1 Quote

Team scored 55 I think. Quote
