Welcome Jordan Marsh

[EXpatriot13]

to Jim, other than being super young, the roster construction isn’t bad if either Elvis or Blake showed signs they were going to break out at the 4 (this assumes only Oduro is leaving):

PG: Polite, Dinkins, Marsh
SG: Fernandez, Barron, White
SF: Gaines, Ball
PF: Jones, Nnaji
C: Henry, Ojiako, P. Oduro

That PF spot looks soooooft. But other than that a pretty good mix of experience and youth.

Based on Ticket’s response to @MasonFanatic on Twitter, I don’t have much confidence in him coming back. Would be a big blow.

Im over watching a recruits offensive highlight reels. After the Fernandez experience, i am looking at defense. He seems like he could be a fast and pesty defender. Any game film out there of his defense?

Yep. They all look the same. Dribble past a guy. Dunk. Hit 3 pointers. Never miss. No turnovers. Yawn. Don't watch 'em anymore. See you when/if you get here.

Yeah, unfortunately, I read his comments the same way. Ticket is kind of like a Swiss Army knife with his versatility, so it's tough to replace his minutes and skillset with just one player.

This kid is crazy atheleic. Just watched a video of him dunking an alleyoop at full running speed during a game. At 5'10'', that's pretty redonculous.

In regards to his very few offers, hopefully Jordan is just a late bloomer and really developed the past few months. It looks like he didn't get much playing time his jr year at Oak Hill so he probably wasn't on a lot of coaches radar. His size didn't help either.

Keep in mind Otis, similiar size had only 2 offers. Maybe 3 max. I'll take an Otis anyday.... That's what Swimmom said.

How did you mess that up?!

NCAA: So, Coach English, It has come to our attention that you have 15 scholarship players on your roster this year. Can you explain that?

CKE: Well, Ticket had the skills of 3 players, so when he left, we felt it was an even trade of his 1 scholarship for 3 freshman scholarships.

Et tu Ty!er Kolek (but 5" taller).

I’m thinking his Mason comp might be Andre Cornelius, who was also 5’10” and from NC, and could play above the rim.

Andre was a blur with the ball in his hands, but he didn’t play above the rim like Marsh does.

Exactly what I was thinking and texted @MasonFanatic last night. He just didn’t have the hops like Andre.

He also ended up playing more off guard in college, but could play some point.

He's got his own building.....must have game....

Bring back the Marsh Burger!!

From a scoring perspective, let's hope he follows more in the footsteps of his first name (Jordan Miller) than his last name (Jay Marsh)!

I'd take Andre anyday too minus the off-the-court issues.

I always saw Andre as more of a two-guard on offense. Whenever he got in the open court for a breakaway, the song "Runaway Train" by Soul Asylum always popped in my head.

He was definitely a SG trapped in a PG’s body lol
