He played 5 seasons at Hillsdale Collage before going to Oakland. I assume he's out of eligibility.Quote:

He is out of eligibility. Also, he would magically suck the second he stepped on the hardwood for us. I mean people forget Eric Reid was a 40% 3 Pt shooter at SEMO and comes here and is a 24% 3 pt shooter.
Jans is only gonna play someone if they go all-in on D, so let's make damn sure our guard will buy in on D before we get Taylor 2.0
We would have played Taylor some if he wouldn't have had all the off the court shit as well as the simple fact that he could not freaking shoot.Quote:

NIL will keeps your good players around longer now and they basically become veterans and veteran players level the playing field against more talented younger players.Quote:

He shot 40% from 3 this season and 100% from FTQuote:

Cal also had just a terrible gameplan. It seemed like every time they would get downhill they had either a open dunk, dump to the post for a dunk, or a kick out for a 3. Yet they would come down, run some unnecessary set that they looked confused on and would turn it over.Quote:

Now maybe he was turning it around 5/7 in those last 3 games. But he was also missing practice more and more during that time. I think he only practiced with the time like twice in between Southern and Murray. However, the kid still could not play defense and if you can't count on him to show up, at least try on defense, and be consistent then he can't play.
I don't think he could shoot, shot was too slow and a weird low release, but that is my opinion. I do not think he would've been able to get the shot off in SEC play.
Taylor ends his career going 224/629 (35.6%) from 3 and 75.8% from FT. While this isn't great, it's solid. For reference, Hubbard is 35.5% from 3.
I hate Taylor couldn't get his act together bc he coulda helped
Some veterans just get a year older, not always better. Some will plateau as good college players and never move to the next level. Will be glad when all these covid eligibility years are gone and we have college age players playing against each other again.Quote:

Heck go get the greek from Yale. he is taking it to Aubbie
Dude been school 6 years he's probably a grandfather by now lol
