And the three point shot he hit against $c was awesome.

That being said he never took his over all game to the next level.

I loved his aggressiveness but he was almost too aggressive to a fault.

He wasn’t a particularly a strong defender either.

Wish him the best and I hope he is an asset to which ever team he ends up with.

I thought he was learning the game well

His primary inability was to know and act on dishing the ball to others after or when the defense was collapsing on him. In that way his aggressiveness could have had one more pay off.

Never saw Freeney get a chance

to display Cronin's potential eval deficit. Thought he came in with the same creds as Perry but a better 3 pt shooter.

If he's sticking around it should mean he feels more PT is coming.

That is why you never saw him.

Obviously, but who decided he should redshirt

rather than contribute as a frosh. Cronin must've seen something from Perry that gave HIM the nod.

Defense anybody?

Needed a PG more than SG

Mc was probably thinking he could develop Perry into a PG. And he would back up Dylan.

And was getting pulled more and more. Too much hero ball for me. Wish him well.

and CMC really liked him. I remember everyone saying the same things about Jules. I'm disappointed, but hopefully he'll find a better fit, and more minutes to show what he can do. I wish him the very best, and he will always be a Bruin to me.

You're totally remembering his Junior and senior years after CMC coached him. His sophomore year he only hit .390 from 2 and .317 from 3. In came CMC and he he hit .437 from 2 and .396 from 3. He became a whole different player. No more drives to no where. He matured with coaching. He also went from 2.6 rebounds to 5.1. We'll end up watching Bazz's junior year at another school. Like I said, their paths are almost identical. I hope he does well at his next school.

He was a sieve his first two years. Mack contributed more .... he was often our go to guy... and our only alpha.. now we have DD at least... but Mack would have helped. Potentially a lot....
