Peacock, although I agree with your assessment that Leon like Lampley is not a true point I question your statement that Dunne "misued" Nick last year. Given last years roster who would you have chosen to run point? A guy who had 85 assists and 91 turnovers (Leon) or a guy who had 48 assists and 72 turnovers (Lampley). A guy who shot .380 from the three or one who shot .294 from the three? While I totally agree with your assessment that we will not succeed with either at point, to criticize Dunne for misuse is not fair unless you can suggest a better alternative. And, by the way, Nick has taken more bashing (not by you) for his performance last year then he truly deserves. Better player than most give him credit for. My hope is that Brandon Hall is successful at point and that Nick and Darrell provide some quality minutes elsewhere.

The minutes don't add up, assuming BH becomes the point guard sometime before he is a soph.
Jenkins is the "2". Period. With that cornerstone in place, Lampley and Leon are being recruited over....there is no other way to spin it....not when our front line needs are so acute.
If Hall plays 25-28 mintues at the point.....where are the minutes for Leon AND Lampley AND Mumphord in their junior and senior seasons?
My suspicion is one of the guards is leaving.....or will leave after this signing.
Optimal outcome = BH is the real deal, another scholarship frees up soon and with the two left we get a scoring "3" and a solid "5".....hey, it's March....we can dream!
