1) I’ll admit when I saw we added a 3 PPG transfer from Texas Tech I had my doubts.
2) I couldn’t be happier I was completely wrong about JB.
I’m not gonna name names of players in fear of catching a stray bullet, but THIS is what an all ACC player looks like. And a contender for player of the year in the ACC.
We’ve had some guys (besides champ) who have been All ACC based on counting stats that were born from pure opportunities but didn’t affect winning in any meaningful way.
Burton has developed into one of the best 3 players in the ACC for his ability to score, dish, make the right play, poise (almost lost it last night but kept it together), and defense. He just finds ways to affect the game and change the game in a Pitt direction.
All while battling a possible knee thing. Can’t wait to watch however many games he has left in a Panther uniform.
