Buglem Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 Really excited about this one. Range and length. Add some weight and he could be great in Fred’s offense. basketballjones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Blaise, Lloyd and Ulis we ended up with three scholarships that contributed nothing to the games. We should pry expect 2-3 scholarships to have little to no impact each season, so we still have some work to do. millerhusker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When G.G. was killin' NU at Rutgers with his made bombs in the last opportune times for the Huskers, I was thinking even way back then that he'd be a great fit in Lincoln. I guess the James Palmer Jr. effect took place, get a dude who competed against the Huskers, particularly at PBA, to come be a part of Nebrasketball. If it works even half as well as JPJ next year, that'd be a nice fill-in for some of KT30's offensive game. And this dude's 6'-8" so presumably he ought to help on defense more than Keisei!!

AGHANSEN Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 (edited) I think a good comparison for Griffiths is Payton Sandfort from Iowa. Both have good length and can shoot lights out. Sandfort struggled his first year in the Big Ten, averaged 10 per game his sophomore year and then exploded last year. I think its reasonable to expect Griffiths to average double figures. Great pickup! Edited April 17 by AGHANSEN Vinny and millerhusker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverbacked1 Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 I see a poor man’s Brice. Can drive well, shoots well, seems to understand the game, smooth, seems to play okay defense. Think if he grows into his body he is going to be a guy that we are very, very, very happy he came here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’ll be happy too, if he’s here for more than a year. You never know these days. Also, keep in mind we saw year four Brice last year. This will just be Griffiths’ second year. Definitely time to become a not poor man’s Brice. Silverbacked1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphilso1 Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 Great pickup. 5* kid who needed a year to put his game together at the B1G level. This is one of those situations where you’re happy to be the player’s second stop rather than the school he chose out of high school. Rutgers got him when he was pure potential. We got him for the year(s) he will be productive. huskercabby, Swan88, HuscurAdam and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh42 Posted April 17 Report Share Posted April 17 Nebraska hosted Rutgers on March 3 and, at times, tested Gavin Griffiths.The 6-foot-8, 193-pound true freshman held his own and finished with 10 points, 3 rebounds and 2 blocks off the bench.The #Huskers coaches liked what they saw and landed him from the transfer portal. pic.twitter.com/tg82DuN1Ho— Steve Marik (@Steve_Marik) April 17, 2024 millerhusker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
