North Dakota guard Eaglestaff talks about Pope and UK

[DeerTurkHunter1]

Imagine a oweh/Eaglestaff wing duo, they will be unguardable

Oweh is hardly unguardable and I know nothing about ole Eagleclaws.

16ppg on the sixth best offense in country says he’s pretty tough to guard lol.

🤣🤣🤣 ok bud

Is Wilkerson a pg?

 

[BassProCat]

Is Wilkerson a pg?

Don’t know but I’m gonna guess SG by looking at highlight reel and stats

 

[CrimsonCats]

I wonder if he is an "in the system" type of guy or a "volume shooter" type of guy. The latter might not work well here. Not saying I'm not interested in the kid. Anyone who can put up fifty in college is worth a look of two. Just wonder how he fits in Pope's system.

I’m not going to pretend I’ve watched every North Dakota game to scout him, but the numbers look more like a volume shooter. He’s taking 15 shots per game with good not great percentages (36% from 3, 42% overall).

Now some of that may be that he’s the only legit talent on a team that was bad enough to go 5-11 in the Summit League and tries to do too much, but it can be a little hard to separate for an amateur like myself. Good scouting and talent evaluation is more important than ever with the portal being so vital to roster building. Fortunately for us, this season suggests that Pope and his staff know what they’re doing in that regard, so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt if they want this guy.

Combo, but primarily off ball

I never judge based on raw numbers. Go on YouTube and watch full games. Then, you will understand what a player really is. I haven’t started on this kid but probably will if I think UK has interest

 

[yoshukai]

I would be glad if Kentucky got him, but I think there are better options

Couple of names being I’ve heard are Dent and Dedan but I honestly have no idea who they are.

 

[BBNinSC]

That’s one positive about the portal, players from small schools can play their way to the big time much easier.

Who is dedan? I know who dent is.

Donovan Dent from New Mexico ?? That would be a nice PG addition

 

[BassProCat]

Who is dedan? I know who dent is.

Dedan Thomas from UNLV maybe

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Dedan Thomas from UNLV maybe

2 more name just popped up lol. The PG from Pepperdine just entered and the PG Jaland Lowe from Pitt may enter

 

[chasingwildcat]

Probably around 4

5 I think

Portal is relentless

Sounds promising….Also has same agent as Amari.

Feel like Pope and the cats will be a popular landing destination for top portal players.

This is a kid that would DEFINITELY qualify as one of the "Superstars" coach Pope stated we were bringing in next season!!!!

I REALLY hope he is one of them!!!

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

If you have time go watch Wilkerson. He is very good

Wilkerson sounds a lot like Fulkerson
Idk

 

[catben]

16ppg on the sixth best offense in country says he’s pretty tough to guard lol.

If he could make more of his layups, he'd get up to 20 ppg!!!!

Hope he can improve on that aspect of his game over the off-season. If he does and improves his 3pt %, he could be an All-American!!!

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Wilkerson is a lot better than floppy Fulkerson

 

[Fox2monk]

I like agbim and Wilkerson better personally. But like you said if eagles staff wanted to come here you obviously take him. I think eaglestaff goes to bama though

You know if Bama is interested he’s probably good.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

You know if Bama is interested he’s probably good.

He is good, I just like other players better. Dent and 1 of Agbim/wilkerson/pascarelli would be my preference. And then the frontcourt pieces are TBT

I am waiting to see which high major players enter before I make any wishes.

Probably the smartest move to make

Watched some of Moe Odum(Pepperdine) last night.
One of the nations assist leaders.
Thin frame.
Typical NYC guard, poor man's Kemba Walker.
