Available Lead Guards

Hard to believe that right now with Drake visiting this week IMO. If they are hot after him I can't see how there's a deeper plan for a more competent PG. But Pitino has surprised me before....
Hopefully Drake/Darling are replacing Sim and not the starting PG role
 
Would have hoped so too but seems like with Rick tweet + Ian's Instagram of him being the PG sounds like these guys would be bought in to backup Jackson at PG
We still got the Xaivian Lee salary slot available. I agree with you that it's hard to see a top echelon guy also being the PG with all of these proclamations.

I guess I'm just confused by this whole Jackson thing now. Is him being able to play PG a big part of the reason he's coming here? Because word was he was coming here before Lee even made his decision. So, if Lee committed here and was locked in to at least 30 mins at PG would Jackson have reconsidered. I don't understand any of this tbh
 
Trilly said this was him:
Interesting. Reviewing the below.

And things with Ian seemed locked up prior to Lee committing anyway. He said as much with Zach ("He knew he wanted St. John's after his visit."). He also told Zach he was excited to "have ball in his hands after playing off of it at North Carolina". So that can mean a number of things. Will he play the RJ role, but they're calling it point guard because they expect playmaking for others as much as for himself?

I find it very confusing that Rick would say he's the next great point guard and Ian's IG would just say "POINT GUARD". Why would a Boogie or Pettiford come here if they are also point guards? It's an odd situation. Something has to be up, which is why I mentioned the Greek kid who's more of a point forward.

No way a big time PG will come now unless they have a guarantee and it seems that guarantee went to Jackson IMO.
 
Guess we know who our next PG is. Didn't quite see this one coming. Assuming we will fill in with an experienced mid-major true PG.


I’m as excited about adding Ian as anyone, but I really hope Rick is bluffing about him being our main PG.
