ND may have lost but not to a great team.

Notre Dame lost to a mediocre/bad team at home. NIU is 4-4 and 1-3 in the MAC

Thanks for the explanation. 🙄

He should transfer if he wants to play a lot

Hall and Catchings are the best backcourt combo. Not even close

no, he will start over Knell

JOPE

Knell opens up the entire floor. I seriously doubt that.

Blue-White game was Demin, Hall, Saunders, Catchings, Keita. I love:

Does Saunders have a shot at the next level?

Chefcurry

12:32pm

Europe maybe? I don't know

Preppy

12:33pm

NBA? No shot. With his skillset, he'd have to be 6'10+.

SinkingQuffa

12:35pm

He’d be fine at 6’8

puntersarepeople

12:45pm

He'd be a wing at that — & he'd still have to improve his handles, cuz his athleticism would be average.

SinkingQuffa

12:50pm

His handling has improved this year I think. He’d be good enough

puntersarepeople

12:55pm

He still looks pretty clunky to me in that regard. One of Richie's biggest strengths is he knows who he is.

SinkingQuffa

12:59pm

Yes, absolutely. NBA? Not likely, but there will be pro clubs willing to pay for

Kevin Young doesn’t strike me as someone who exaggerates praise (unlike Pope).

ldssdl

12:44pm

Caruso's a much better skill guard. It's not even a debate. I think athletically & size-wise they are close.

SinkingQuffa

Richie is obviously not where a 7 or 8-year NBA vet is skill wise;

Kevin Young does think so, and NBA scouts that have visited BYU practices agree.
