Mustafa Amzil On campus today
- Thread starter President Stache
- Start date
Just because there has been no news? Or is there actual new info.
Have heard only negative things from writers.
No concrete news so hope is still there.
But nothing to justify having hope whatsoever
Not only that, he’s going to play this season ! So he’ll be out there playing in a matter of weeks.
We don’t have a spot for him if he is playing right away.
Yep. Wonder if that weighed in to Amzil’s decision?
All 13 of Pitt’s spots for 2020-21 are filled but of course as of now 1 of them hasn’t been cleared to play by the “always fair-minded” NCAA. So we may have to play with just 12 this year unless Nike’s waiver is granted.
Pretty unique situation, he's old and wanted to play now. Not too many schools could accommodate that. Great pick up for Dayton.
Dayton Flyers forward Mustapha Amzil to enter transfer portal
His time in a Dayton uniform will best be remembered for the game-winning shot against Kansas in 2021.
Yes please 🙏
So is this a pretty done deal already?
As long as Pitt wants him I can’t see where else he’d go
Would be pretty much done with the front court unless someone insane decides they want to come to Pitt
10 PPG in A10 translates to ACC bench. I would hope we can do better.
He's 6'10
He got a good shot
Rebounds decent
Good free throw shooter.
For a big, there is nothing wrong with this. It's actually way better than I expected.
I mean I'd take him but I'd hope he'd be a backup and we can get a better starter.
Don't think we are necessarily looking for starters at the big positions. More of someone who is willing to come and play and be a good teammate.
I truly expected just a development piece there
Idk that it makes sense for them to take him. He would likely be on the bench behind Blake and be taking minutes away from Jorge. Unless he can play the 3 which I’m not opposed to but Blake did say on JB’s podcast that he loves playing the 4 and doesn’t ever want to play any other position. Also he is following other assistant coaches from different schools but none from Pitt only person associated with Pitt he is following is Fede, his brother, and Morris Ugusuk.
He looks like Karl Malone next to William Jeffress
Guards still have to be a priority along with shooters. JB may be the most difficult replacement we have seen in years.
He works from the midrange out most. He only attempts about 28% of his shots inside 7 feet or so. He can provide Dior / Lowe inside spacing which would be a nice plus.
ORTG is good at 113 which is what we want. Free throw shooting and 3 point shooting are good and important for next year. Low usage rate and low turnover rate which is just fine, he is playing within the system and not trying to do much more than the coach wants.
His rebound percentage rates are low. His OR rebound efficiency rate is 5.3, DR efficiency is 13.6. These are not good rebound rates at all, especially for a center if we used him there at times as the 3rd option. They are a bit low for a PF. For a wing, they would be fine.
I have not watched much tape at all. He looks closer to 6'8. With that said, if this is a trade for Nate Santos, then I would take it. He has 2 years to improve and at worst is a nice depth piece. And for a team that has bad depth for years, it would be a welcome addition in that regard. We still need 2 high end guards.
Solid play during season. I watched many games this year
ACC bench is exactly what we need. We could use someone bigger but I think we could do a lot than this guy.
He is 6’9 and can play either position.
Dayton used him incorrectly. Will shine at whatever HM program takes him
