Sean O'Mara

How many posters on this board thought Myles Davis should have transferee after his freshman (redshirt?) year?

Sorry.....like no one.

Yeah, what? I dont remember any of that.

And I echo what bleedXblue said.

I say this at least a couple times a year, I just dont understand how anyone ever writes any of our players off after 1 or 2 years, it is just so dumb. How many guys do we have to have had who contribute little to zero their first year or two and then become big time stars their last 2 years for guys to stop saying things like that?

London's upside is crazy. Hope we see it some day. Takes some guys longer than others. O'Mara came in a man, and continued to work. Very different skill sets and development curves.

In fairness, he said "being an inside presence", not a washout. I think he can really develop, but it could have been an understandable perception about style of play. (That's the best I can offer.)

Remember how the Coaching staff can't develop players- especially Big Men?

Uh, right. Sean seems to be right on schedule.

But jalen is a little behind right now so that evens it out right lol.

We're still waiting for Jeff Robinson to do something.

I wouldn't mind seeing some more of London if Gates keeps slumping. He hasn't given us the same punch he did when called on during Sumner's absence.

was that ever a discussion? I don't know anyone who thought that.

Gates is playing because of his defense at this point. He is a really good defender and mack loves that. Makinde won't see much time this year. Hopefully he will contribute next season.

Gates is slumping? he had 2 nice scoring games when Sumner was out but that was it, we really just need him to grab a few rebounds and play some defense.
I know London had a sore back or whatever earlier, but it is interesting that he has been getting absolutely zero minutes lately. Would like to see him get in there a little bit.

Thank you.....London is built like Reggie Milller, who was a great player......he may develope as a player but not inside. OMara was a man when he arrived on campus. London is more like Tashaun Prince.
