I think that’s unnecessary if we had Cliff and Zuby. Houston doesn’t start a guy over 6’8. Maker could give you 5 mins in a pinch this weekend.

Plus Luis is all of 6’7 with Gumby arms so you just have him stay at home in standard 2-3 or draw up a 1-3-1 with a pesky defensive guard on the baseline to rip at the ball.

Houston doesn't play in the Big East....against Kalbrenner, Johnson, Clinton etc.

Bittersweet news, but makes sense considering all the guys we're talking to. Probably a (good) sign of things to come roster/talent wise. Love Taylor though and do think he was underused this year.

While Taylor gave us much on D, he gave us very little on offense and never (except for a few games here and there) got in to an offensive rhythm.
 
I love it. Continuity plus the 2nd year leap I’m expecting from Brady and Wilcher. I love Cliff but i feel like Clayton would take a bullet for Pitino and vice versa. Can’t teach that kinda relationship.

However this plays, I would say for that Taylor and any other kid our fanbase should treat these kids with utmost respect. No different than Drissa, even if it is a player that folks want to "stay" more, like Taylor, who most all posters like and appreciate. Kids gave us a nice season, even if it didn't end how we wanted.

Yea--not a crazy number. It's not my money, but seems like he's worth it and given the history with pitino and our need for a scoring guard, he's probably worth more to us than anywhere else. Makes too much sense from a basketball/business perspective.

how much is he making?

If he gets another year, Chris L would more than fill the bill with Cliff and Ruby.

If he could raise his 3pt% from 31.5% to over 35% he could be a nice stretch 4, in addition to his other skills. I think he is the type of guy who would work hard to do it.

I like Ledlum, just like I liked DAW. I don't know but I bet Ledlum stats this year and DAW stats last year were really close. I believe their games are similar. Just tough guys, that got after it. They will fight for rebounds, try and struggle at times to finish at the rim because they are going up against bigger defenders, and can knock down an open 3 (but you there is always a no no no, yes! quality to it). They may not be the most skillful, but they do have a place on a team. I believe the term lunch pail applies.

Clayton being here would be incredible but we’d have to deal with Marillac continually claiming that Clayton went to Florida for a year to avoid playing with daniss jenkins and then came back when the coast was clear 😂

I was waiting to post practically the same thing if Clayton hit the portal😀.
