    Trent Jr: 40% 3pt on 6.5 attempts; ORT 124; DRT 103; OWS 3.3; DWS 1.8
    Crabbe*: 40% 3pt on 5.0 attempts; ORT 114; DRT 105; OWS 2.3; DWS 1.0

    * as freshmen

    they were closer than I thought, but as freshmen, Trent had the better defensive numbers.

    I haven't seen Connaughton near the workouts at all....Layman is at all of them as are Baldwin and Swanigan...my bet is Layman will be our towel waiver again

    I’d team up with him, Ted Cruz, the Zodiac Killer, and Kevin from the Office and we’d run train on all your wives and become the best stable in wrestling history.

    Hey, it gets the job done. Just don’t look at it fresh out of a swim at the lake though.

    No, if we trade CJ we need to replace him with someone who can defend, hit 3s, and attack the rim. Trent can only shoot.

    Trent will be the Kyle Kuzma of this draft..I know this because I watched Oregon play a lot this year.

    I actually really like this acquisition. Been following Junior for a few years because of his dad. I like his potential.

    I think he is getting unfairly rated because he is "unathletic", but he looks decent enough in the tape I saw, and he certainly isn't afraid to shoot. Will be interesting to see if he gets burn next year. If we don't resign patty then I would imagine that is realistic.

    Pat was considered one of the most athletic guys on the roster....I'll take lights out shooting this time around

    Lets remember that Gary Trent Jr....is 19 years old. Just like Simons.
    These picks are for the future.

    Could have had a two-way player. Overall FG% 54% compared to Trent's 41%.
    "Khyri Thomas is a reliable shooter and competitive defender coming off one of the most efficient scoring seasons of any player available in the 2018 NBA Draft. A largely unheralded recruit in the high school class of 2015, Thomas nonetheless emerged as a starter as a true freshman under Greg McDermott at Creighton. Showed marked improvement as a sophomore making perimeter shots at a high rate and earning Big East Defensive Player of the Year honors, Thomas was even better as a junior. Averaged 15.1 points and 4.4 rebounds per game while posting gaudy shooting numbers to help Creighton to the NCAA Tournament, repeat as Big East Defensive Player of the Year, and earn All-Big East Second Team honors."
