Shot 39 for 108 on 3s = 36.1%

Better than anyone on our team did last season from the new longer 3 point distance.

Plays a good third base for the Dodgers, too.

All the transfers they are interested in are the same type.

It's the type we desperately need. A shooter

Good 3 point shooters. Brendan Barry might be somewhat of an outlier, however. Only 6-2 and can’t be sure if his 3 point shooting will transfer since he hasn’t played since the NCAA moved the line further out.

The others are taller and are more proven 3 point shooters from the longer distance now required.

Barry would shoot far beyond that line.
This Gardner Webb guy is actually a good athlete tho. That'd be a better option

I like his shooting and athleticism!

Maybe so, but unless one has seen him shoot the 3-ball vs ACC-level competition and from well beyond the former closer-in line, as well, there would remain a concern that he may only be another Ryan Murphy, at best--not that that would be awful if only concerned with filling depth at shooting guard.

Also, couple that concern with his having missed all of last season due to a hip injury and the question as to whether he is 100% fully recovered now, and one would naturally be suspicious about what he could actually be able to bring to the table at Pitt.

But, to be on the fully optimistic side--maybe he is 100% healthy and able to shoot it well from anywhere past mid-court. Those issues are for the coaches to determine while assessing/recruiting him.

Thanks. Wasn't sure whether it was Johnson, Turner or Barry. My browser security settings are causing a few issues at the moment.

No problem it happens to all of us!
I really like what I see with this guy so I think he could be a good pick up but we'll see.
