The Marhold analogy is pretty accurate El Duque. From the scouting reports I read, the constants were 1.)can jump through the roof, 2.)works harder than anyone and 3.) very, very limited offensively. His 23 pts/game were scored predominately by dunking on the break. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: El Duque 's message, "Marhold's got a much different game. I know what people think about "NY hype," but there is a reason why city players are all over the NCAA and NBA. I think this is a great pickup and gives us an outstanding recruiting class." on Saturday, August 14, 10:04:43am

What I don't agree with is the negative reference to Marhold just because he was not an instant contributor his freshman year. It is up to RE and his staff to develop these players. They both have a lot of raw talent.
IMHO, Wright's role should be defined as a PF rebounder who can run the floor, giving Bill some more time as a SF.
