Yes he should

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yes no question...

He showed it in the first two games before he got hurt. He is now like 4-7 from 3 PT range for the season. He will valuable vs the dreaded zone defense vs Syracuse Tuesday night.

Yes coming off the bench most definitely and if he can continue to show signs of what he showed today from 3 then who knows he might be a starter...we need a consistent 3 point shooter in the lineup really bad right now

I like our 3 freshman guards overall. Should be a really solid rotation in a couple of years if they all stay healthy and don't transfer.

No.

JK. A little.

Of course he gets more playing time. He has been getting virtually none.

But Brownell basically put him in when we had no hope of winning just to give him a taste and see what he could do against one of the best teams in the nation in a why-not situation. He did fine.

But in games we actually have a chance at winning, I don't think he's going to take anybody else's minutes. I do agree with the poster who said he could function as a zone busting specialist in special circumstances.

Brownell really values team defense. No matter how much Curran Scott can score, he loses minutes by getting beat off the dribble and putting his team in a defensive disadvantage. Hemenway is seen by the coaches in practice every day; I trust them to play him when they can.

Has he been healthy at all? I did not think he was...


Jan 25, 2020, 4:22 PM

Available to play until today.

Brownell says he hadn't played since Presbyterian. Didn't realize he had still been inactive. Sorry.

Then maybe he does. The only way to get back into playing shape is to play.

See Clyde Trapp. Leading scorer today.

Have to disagree with you. He played in the first two games in key minutes before getting the severe high ankle sprain and now is fully healthy again. The TV guys in the first game we’re saying like he never missed shots in warm ups and practice, including ESPN recruiting scout Paul Biancardiaid who said he will be major threat from 3 pt land in any game the Tigers play...

Have to agree with your disagreement. I had thought he was available a few games ago. Obviously I was wrong.

Glad to see so many fans looking forward to his contributions.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

absolutely


Jan 25, 2020, 9:12 PM

he played 15 minutes against Va Tech and 9 in the second game

if he's healthy he will see the court

as mentioned above, expect him to appear against the 'Case zone on Tuesday
