~ 2011 College Draft Prospects ~


HeatCheck

Recommended Posts

We do have a first round pick this year (as it stands) so I'm making a thread to discuss players that you guys watch that might be of help to this team.

I don't get into college basketball that much until conference play picks up.

Noone knows what our team make-up will be by the end of this year, but I can almost guarantee you that Center will be a need. But this year there doesn't seem to be a stand out Center.

We could also go for a Point Guard, which for me, is the most important player on the court. Kyrie Irving and Kemba Walker seem to be the head of the class when it comes to that position.

Who knows, we might just have to go with the best available.

Please post you thoughts on these prospects throughout the college basketball season.

Jared Sullinger is a Beast but if Kyrie Irving is on the board we can't pass him up.

I love Sullinger's game. He killed my Gators. I'm just concerned if he's big enough. He almost reminds of a DeJuan Blair where he has a center's game in a PF body.

That's crazy that Selby hit the go ahead 3 yesterday vs. USC in his Kansas debut.

Also, I'm a fan of JaJuan Johnson of Purdue. He's a PF/C and has a decent mid range shot. The only downside is, I believe he's a senior and people always bring up potential with seniors.

    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
    • The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game     It was already a high risk low reward play.  Why change it?
