I attended Friday night's scrimmage, my thoughts:
Q - didn't force anything, played within himself. The ultimate senior floor leader.
VJ - as advertised, a much better player, has added weight and is playing more physical. Expect him to have a great season.
Adel - looked great, will have a good year.
McMahon - looked really good until getting injured. We need him to give us 5-8 good minutes a game. Hope he gets back soon.
Ray - also much improved as has been publicized. Hope he continues to work on his game and aggressiveness.
Anas - he is replacing Ray as my most frustrating player. The guy will probably weigh what he does when he's 65 years old. I just wish he was meaner, more physical, more aggressive, etc. He's just not cut from that cloth but can still have a nice season.
Enoch - gonna be a nice player. Big & physical, look forward to seeing him play next season.
Darius Perry - really like his game. He plays with a swagger and believes that he "belongs", and he does. I look for him to play 12 -15 min a game.
Lance Thomas - I think down the road he can be a player here. Not a huge project, but playing behind a veteran front line.
Jordan Nwora - love his mindset. Aggressive offensively, looks to score, catches the ball with his feet set ready to shoot, has super quick release. I'm excited about him contributing. Can he guard anyone, jury still out?
Sutton - really like what I see. Struggled offensively but this kid will play. Look for the hometown product to be a crowd favorite. Will play defense, scrap and do the little things, very physical & agressive.
Malik Williams - I don't really understand how he will be used. Prefers the perimeter and shys away from the paint area. Yes, he got some rebounds but he remains the player I saw at the Derby Classic - a big who wants to play the 2 or 3 spot.
Jo Griffin - for a walk-on I like his confidence. I think he's a step up from Tyler Sharpe. McMahon type player minus the flair.
Redding - walk-on from Ft, Wayne, IN. Practice player who will probably struggle to see the floor. Does he pull a Levitch and someday carve himself out some minutes? Probably not but time will tell.
I encourage everyone to attend the next Red-White scrimmage on Friday 10/27. The team needs your support!
