Also to fit in his first year at city rocks. Point guard is more about your mindset and how you make decisions and obviously skill which he doesn't lack etc but you'll see. Star rating can be misleading, if had more established point then I'd agree bring along slower. But the good thing is in due time it'll all come out as the season will be here, then people will see where I'm coming from.
I hope you’re right about Mika but Brannnen brought in Mcneal for a reason. Usually frosh have an adjustment period unless they are higher caliber recruits and even many of those do.

I agree on the whole adjustment period with freshmen and definitely think McNeil will play obviously or he wouldn't have came. I just think this is a freshman who could play more then spot minutes as I've seen people on the Cincinnati forums suggesting.

Jarron was one of the best shooters in the country last year from NBA 3-point range - a little over 40%. I am not sure how Jaevin did from extra deep, but I don't think the longer line is going to effect either of them too much.

Watching Jaevin's mix tape I don't think it's going to be an issue at all. It could turn out to be a nice advantage for us with both Cumberlands being able to hit from deep. They both have range!

The video was apparently recorded on a Nokia phone and uploaded on AOL. I was very impressed with Jaevin's 47 pixel range.
