Andrew's Brother, Andrien White @ UNC Charolotte

[trickey]

Andrien has won the Conference USA “Freshman of the Week” twice. This article says he is their best defender.

 

Averaging 11 points a game to go along with 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 steals.

I don't recall any discussion of him here; and he landed at a mid-major.

Did we consider him? Should we have?

Nice article on his first half year of success on new coach, Mark Price's team.

Likely the answers are: Probably not, Probably

"No one can currently say we should have recruited him because no one said at the time we should have been recruiting him."

Speaking of family members of guys who play or have played here (and speaking of guys who someone said at the time we should have recruited) ...

 

I haven't given people any Sheldon Jeter updates in a while.

 

 As you all probably know, Sheldon, a 6'8" 225# PF, plays for the Kenpom #47 Pitt Panthers (16-3 overall, 5-2 conference) where he is their 4th leading scorer at 8.1 points per game and their 2nd leading rebounder at 5.4 boards per game.

 

Go, Lance Jeter's cousin!

Is that a paraphrase or do you have a link where I used those words in that order?

Sorry, no idea of how to embed a tweet despite trying for the past 15 minutes.

That one was always a headscratcher.  He'd help us a bit, I'd say.

 

Heck, it seems so long ago, I'm surprised he's still playing.

and boy was Norm pissed that Doc didn't even whiff in Sheldon's direction....

I'd rather we were turned down than never try to land the kid.

 

Do you think we could use a 6'8" 225# rebounder on this roster?  I sure do.

 

And it's not like the scholarship ever went to anyone else.
