PJC's biggest issue is that he's a liability on defense and with Simmons in the fold we go 6' 3", 6' 4-5", 6' 5" at PG in a defensive system that values height in the back court because of how much switching we do.Spaceman Spiff wrote:I like PJC, but regardless of Simmons, I think he has to worry about Simon passing him up too. PJC is a good, solid player, but the constant here is that Miller brings in talent and it is a competitive environment. I'm not sure PJC will ever wind up starting here. If he's ok with that, hey, he seems like a good kid and I'd love him to finish in an AZ uniform. That said, I wouldn't penalize him if he wanted to seek out a place where he would have an easier road to PT.baycat93 wrote:would be excited to get a talent like that... and probably best for the program.. but would be bummed if it pushed PJC to transfer. Of course if he was tearing it up this year this recruitment would not happen.
Maybe a RS year for PJC, Kobi OAD, Troy Brown '17, PJC RsSr in '18.
One can dream.
It's never an easy road to playing here. Who was the last recruit we snagged who wasn't a top 100 guy?
Honestly, if I were him, I'd look to transfer to a smaller conference team that plays zone sometimes.
