bball23 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 Take this for what its worth, but somebody inside the program said that Glynn Watson is the REAL deal and will start for NU when he gets here. This came from an actual player (on the roster) now that said when he was on his visit he was one of the best players on the court. So that was great news to hear! hhcmatt and gobigredbrah 2 Quote

That's awesome, but we need a big to go along with him. And I'm not talking "big" like Ed Morrow big. I'm talking "big" like 6'10" and 250# big. And athletic. bobcat402 1 Quote

I was just pointing out that I heard EXTREMELY high praise about Watson from a player on the NU roster which was good to hear. I still think Miles system doesn't need an offensive minded big man. They need a big that will rebound, post defend, set ball screen and actually score on the block or at least be a threat that may cause teams to double down. Morrow isn't huge by any means, but he may be that back to the basket guy that we so badly need right now. It's why losing Leslee this year has hurt so bad. He was at least a THREAT to score on the block which opens up driving/slashing lanes. Quote
MandRHusker Posted January 11, 2015 Report Posted January 11, 2015 Glynn has been on a hot streak with 31 and 20 the past two games. He missed a couple games due to an ankle injury but is now storming back with a vengeance. And St Joseph's needs him to. He is their leading scorer and team leader. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted January 11, 2015 Report Posted January 11, 2015 He is coming off of a recent injury and seems to be really stepping up his game... http://highschoolcubenews.com/2015/01/10/glynn-watson-st-joseph-hold-kenwood/ Quote

He was at least a THREAT to score on the block which opens up driving/slashing lanes. Miles system doesn't have an offensive skilled player right now and his team struggles to score. With a threat inside it would make everybody's life much easier. If he had a threat inside, I believe he would be thrilled to death and it would then became a big part of his offensive system. Quote
royalfan Posted January 12, 2015 Report Posted January 12, 2015 I don't think posts will ever be big parts of Miles system either. But we need bigs that can defend, run pick and rolls with capabilty of finishing and get some offensive rebounds. Miles needs to error on the side of athletic abiltiy and devooping a little more on the interior front IMO. hhcmatt 1 Quote
Norm Peterson Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 New video of Glynn Watson from last month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhV87WhTi7k Quote
Huskerpapa Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 This kid is silk...as in as smooth as silk. PG looks pretty set for the forseeable future Quote
gobigredbrah Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 No reason why he shouldn't be the starting PG next season Quote
Huskerpapa Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 There are two possible reasons why he may not begin the year as the starting PG next year. Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 I really like him off the bench next season. Having a scoring threat on the "second line" is something we are severely lacking right now. If TP comes backs I'd like to see Watson spell him and then stay out there with him and play the true combo guard role. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 He really likes that left to right cross-over and mostly penetrates on a right-handed dribble. Work on that left hand, young man. Quote
hskr4life Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 He really likes that left to right cross-over and mostly penetrates on a right-handed dribble. Work on that left hand, young man. Yep, teams will start scouting for this and pick him. It has started happening to Shields in recent games. How many times has he been picked in conference play than non-con play? I would say more than we think. Quote

hhcmatt Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Posted February 9, 2015 No reason why he shouldn't be the starting PG next season Having not seen much of Watson I didn't know if his scoring was from slashing or shooting. The answer was yes. Finding his teammate with a behind the head pass for the game winning shot was also nice. Future = Quote
AuroranHusker Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Vote for Glynn Watson as the Player of the Week: http://www.prephoopsillinois.com/news_article/show/476383?referrer_id=1201274 Quote

huskerbaseball13 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Per Paul Biancardi of ESPN on his overview of the Big Ten recruiting classes he has Watson pegged as the top sleeper. Said by this time next year everybody will know his name and as a freshman will bring defensive toughness to the position and play making ability right away. Earlier Biancardi also had NU's class as a whole has one of the top "sleeper" classes in the country. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=12379592 AuroranHusker 1 Quote

Huskerpapa Posted March 18, 2015 Report Posted March 18, 2015 Watson plays on... Ash and Nebraska recruit Glynn Watson (five straight points) fueled the run that erased a two-point deficit and ended with Nick Rakocevic’s dunk for a 35-25 lead in the opening seconds of the fourth quarter. http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-83084666/ Norm Peterson and trickey 2 Quote
