Wilson?

[The Sisco Kid]

Is he hurt or sick?

 

[Piranha]

No - JR is the leader and has stepped up.

 

[Pittx9]

Also Wilson has been pretty brutal to watch lately. Still think he has tremendous upside, but he is clearly nowhere near ready.

 

[The Sisco Kid]

ok maybe next year our 4 star recruit can play.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Robinson is going 40 today.

 

[Piranha]

Nothing against Wilson, but JR is the General right now. He is doing all the little things well right now.

I think dixon said it was either an injury or illness thing in the post game.

 

[heybandguy]

Was surprised that JR went 40. Good for him.

I didn't hear that, but might've missed some of it. Sounded like JD didn't trust him in such a critical game. Mentioned that they had to get him ready for the next one.

Right. Cause every 4 star true freshman just rips it up wherever they go. Everywhere but Pitt of course.

I listened to the post game on 93.7 the fan this afternoon. I heard nothing about a Wilson injury or illness. Maybe that was the case but Dixon did not say so directly.

I think this game was too important to let the typically reliable field general off the court. Thus, JRob played all 40. Pitt getting their money's worth out of the development today.

JRob had a decent game against WFU and played well vs SU today. I give him credit for that. He is solid against the lesser opponents, but not so much against the elite competition. That is probably true of most players on the PITT roster.

DWilson has had some moments as a frosh but when the game is on the line, like today, JRob was just too good of option to sit.

Bill Self hates star freshman, too. Hasn't everybody heard that narrative after he's more or less benched Cheick Diallo and barely plays Carlton Bragg?

Kid looks very raw. When Pitt played inferior teams he looked decent but he doesn't have the handle or outside game to be a factor against better teams yet. Someone else mentioned that hes one of those kids JD has had in the past that has some upside and should become pretty good in his Jr and Sr years.
