If DJ Wagner stays healthy he will be a problem this year.

Actually Briscoe, or Andrew Harrison aren't bad comparisons. Although they are a bit bigger than he is. And he's about in between the 2 of them when it comes to shooting.

Briscoe was a master around the rim for someone 6'1 and below average D1 athletic ability

Im getting just about tired of the Briscoe slander around here. Ive dealt with it for nearly 10 years now. You guys are skating on thin ice

 

[smooth as butter]

Who cares, he is no longer a UK player, not on my radar any more

How you been ?

 

[Zissou87]

Everyone who sucked last year will be great next year. Ok.

Thanks, smooth.

Is it crazy to think that an SEC All Freshmen-team player would be a decent player in their sophomore season?

i dont 'hate' wagner. i think he is a good player that was hurt most of the year. but i also think he is a player that is one dimensional, cant shoot and matured early and people caught up with him. will be, and has been, exposed by good defenses

 

[megablue]

I think Wagner will have a better year than last year. He is a pretty good defender and I think he'll probably finish better around the rim for Arkansas, but his outside shooting will always be a problem for him. He will be a very good (not great) college player.

 

[true blue1]

Best of luck to the kid. I think he might play in the league one day but he’s not as good as his Dad was.

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

For Arkansas or everybody else? LOL

 

[specialkd24]

I don't wish him ill will (except when playing us).

But he needs to learn to finish at the rim. I've never seen that high of a recruited player miss so many layups. Killed us time and time again last year.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

100% agreed. If healthy, he will cause Arkansas a lot of problems.

 

[LmdCat]

He will flourish like Dillingham did this past season. Injuries held him back

He was a problem last year, a very bad problem! However, I realize you are only gaslighting.

 

[gregbookout]

I don’t care. He left, good luck to him but I’m not going to pay much attention to him aside from casually watching games

 

[LmdCat]

When we play Arkansas, we should be able to draw at least 5 charges that game. On offense we should drive the ball because they will not know how to draw a charge, they won't practice that, instead rely on athleticism which will get exposed by a good coach.

Unless he developed a legit 3 point shot then defenses will just do what they do and collapse on him. Especially one that knows how to play zone.

I don't recall a single instance when Cal turned a non-shooter into a shooter. Because DJ's court speed allowed him to blow by most high school opponents for layups, he never took the time to develop a shot and I don't see Cal turning that around.

 

[bbncal02]

I hope he shows up to kick butt and chew bubblegum, but he’s out of gum.

I hope he does that against everyone but us.

He will be a tricky matchup for us I think.

If the court was only 4 inches longer, he could've been all conference.

 

[TankedCat]

all I know is he was a problem last year thanks to our arrogant coach

 

[Cleatortoises]

The drawing charges days seem to be over. Praise the lord.
It has to be a chicken wing hook or egregious lowering of the shoulder.
The floparino is basically through.
Suck it dookies and toothbeaks.

We took a kid that played point guard his entire life and stuck him in the corner as a small forward.

Who? I don’t know these guys.

Teams always hurt us with it, all of those all Americans we had always thought they could drive by anybody, and we usually ran over people 3 or 4 times a game. Good teams that are well coached use it and we should too.

They basically stopped calling it last year with the new flopping rule being a flagrant. Even duke floppies weren't getting the call.

No hate from me. I liked Brisco.
But he may have stepped out of bounds a few extra times.
