Harve, what is your opinion on D.Wilson and

He's not a game breaker type. I think he will be a decent career guy but it depends on his development how soon.
He's a big combo guard, at least a legit 6-4 and maybe 6-5. Not particularly explosive but savvy. He can hit some treys but is never going to be a go-to guy scorer. He will attack the rim and hit a lot of FT's. Not a flashy passer and handle but maybe better than most of our guys.
Given our guard play, he will get the chance to contribute unless we bring in a 5th year guy or another surprise. He may end up the back-up PG, jumping Newkirk.
He has mainly played off the ball this year after Kobie Eubanks graduated so it's a little tougher to see him in the role he was recruited for.,I think he is not unlike a bigger Robinson, but hopefully he's faster too.
He's had some good games against good players and teams so there is ability there. I think he is the kind of guy who may be better in a structured system than in the quasi-AAU style of the big name, recruiting high schools.

Thanks - The little I have watched him, he reminded me of J.Robinson too.
Robinson has been disappointing. I thought he would be a Big Ten type power point guard and he is obviously not.
I still think he can score some. For some reason, he is extremely passive. Both as a frosh and soph, he seemed more willing to try to make something happen going to the goal. He shot better too. Maybe he just needs to be told that we need 10 points a game from him. Maybe that would make him more aggressive.

Wilson reminds me a little of Wanamaker. A little more athletic, not a real good shooter, but big and strong. I think he'll have a good career but won't be a break-out star.
Wilson isn't a game breaker, but he's definitely longer, taller, quicker and more aggressive than Robinson. Hes also not as good of a ball handler but has a higher ceiling. Hes a better athlete but not great. Hes an OK shooter and pretty good passer, but the skills are there to be a nice player.
