Player Tyus Jones

[rhfarmer]

So pinson, okafor and Jones visited the Dean dome and started reanacting the rivers shot over and over again? LMAO

This is the funniest slap in the face I have ever even heard of.

 

[aiw]

People need to not get too excited about these guys

Jahlil "K's broken heart" Okafor?

The next morning we met with Coach (Mike) Krzyzewski before their practice and he was telling me about how he thinks their style fits me perfect and things like that. We mostly talked about things other than recruiting though. He’s a big Chicago Bears fan and I’m a Minnesota Vikings fan so we went back and forth with that a little bit.

I got the chance to sit down and talk with Coach (Roy) Williams and it was good to hear that he was feeling a lot better after his surgery. He was telling me how blessed he was and how well he’s doing now.

I picked up on the same thing DDB. That's the highlight of his conversation with Ole Roy? lol

 

[Thain]

I can’t even describe how that feels to be in that moment. I got a rush. It was great. We all kinda looked at each other and started smiling.

 

[TheRagingCHS]

I'm not getting my hopes up. I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[rome8180]

Definitely sounded more positive for us. All this means is they will end up at UK.

 

[bdotling]

yeah it's pretty positive, but i feel like that always during their junior year. Once senior year hits all that foundation built feels like it gets thrown out the window.

 

[Pantone287]

Even though they'll go to UK, gotta love that this is what they did at UNC:

After the practice we headed over to North Carolina and went to their practice. We had a good time over there just watching how hard they work and talking with the players and coaches after practice. Then we shot around in the Dean Dome, which was really fun.

Me, Theo and Jahlil were out there shooting around and we found the spot where Austin Rivers hit that crazy buzzer beater three to win the game last season. So we started to reenact it. All in fun though. Theo was the first one to make it.

Was thinking about the class stacking and we kind of need Tyus to stay more than one year.

2014-15: Quinn (SR) Tyus (FR)
2015-16: Tyus (SO*) Unknown player


So we need Jones basically to get Jahlil but really, shouldn't we be going after a more long term replacement? Or just as well, another PG in his class or the 15 class?

 

[physicsfactor]

A Kyrie/TT situation?

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Richmond would be fine if he doesn't care about being recruited over and potentially being a career backup.

 

[Pantone287]

I liked Richmond's highlights, but supposedly he's not actually very good.

Not saying I know enough to really have an opinion, but I've never been that sold on Tyus being 1-and-done lotto. I can't think of any starting NBA PGs who are his size and not quicker/more athletic.

 

[rome8180]

We don't need Richmond to be very good. Just a stopgap.

Anyway, if all else fails we'll just revert to Duke's presettings and run some SG or other at point.

I'm going to believe the unanimous #1 point guard each year is one and done until it doesn't happen. Even Marquis Teague made it.

Paige? Really?

Haha, people forget about Paige and the weakest PG class ever.
