If we land this 5 star pg from GA or 4 star from Dayton he will be a career backup.

You and I see different things, and that's ok. I can tell you with 100% certainty, the YOUNG MAN is the farthest thing from selfish though.

Per 40 minutes JD and DD shoot the ball over 17 times. Mike is at 12.5, MAW is at 12, Mason 11.9, Newman 10.1. Mike also gets to the line more per 40 minutes than all the other guards and wings. This is in addition to having more assists per 40.

He makes some bad decisions at times but none of these things really scream selfish to me.

I’m assuming you must be related to know 100%. I apologize if I’ve offended you or insulted your family member.

You are entitled to your opinions. It's what makes for fun/competitive discussions.

And no, you didn't offend me. I'm guilty of judging people and making outlandish claims as well. I just thought you should know that Mike is one of the most unselfish young men I've ever had the privilege of knowing.

Go Bearcats!
