    My point is, can we expect the same kind of performance in the BE.

    X's success rate for grad transfers is 50:50. Johnson went to GW for a reason. Guards are a dime a dozen.

    I really hope Johnson can defend, rebound, and score. Anything more than 7 points would be great. For all we know, he might be a gun slinger for set plays.

    1.5 blocks and 3.0 steals would have led Xavier in both categories this season. Jones led in blocks with 1.1 and Marshall in steals with 1.3. I wouldn't worry about blocks by a 6'3" guard, but 1.0 steals would be a more realistic goal.

    3 steals per game may have led the nation. Doesn't seem like a lot, but it is.

    Edit - it would have been 2nd in the nation behind 3.19 per game from Jacob Gilyard from Richmond. Next best is 2.87.

    Even approaching 2.0 is really, really good.

    If you read it on the internet, I think it has to be true.

    I like this pick up. What’s not to like.

    He is quick. He steals. He blocks. He can shoot well. He likes to drive in the lane (unlike the departing Q and Moore).

    He looks like he will another senior leader.

    I believe we are going to be very happy with Mr. Johnson.

    With the two transfers we picked up, are we done or are we looking to add a third transfer?

    According to Rivals...X is still in the running for at least 2-3 others. Would think that if they pick up one of those they are still talking with they might be done then. They are talking with at least one other transfer that would be more the traditional type and would need to sit for a year under the current rules....according to Rivals anyway.
