Is this a decent DIII post player? Topic


Athleticism 70

Speed 20
   
Rebounding 70

Defense 85  

Shot Blocking 55 

Low-post 30 

He'll be okay defensively and rebounding right?  I know he won't be a great scorer....

Looks solid to me.  If he's for your NYU team, then he's a good addition to a team that's undergoing a rebuild.  I don't know how many other coaches like to do this, but especially with young or new teams, I love grabbing complementary players, i.e. a big who can't score but who can rebound and block and then signing another big who's not a tremendous rebounder/blocker but who can dominate inside offensively, and maybe even score from the perimeter too.

Solid defender/rebounder at D3.  Very solid.  Won't score.  Best for a man to man team, his shot blocking is low for a zone (where I believe it is very important).  Speed is a little low for press, but if the stamina is good, would be ok there too.

Like others said, you don't need 5 players on the court who can score.  I just about always keep at least one guy on the team with lights out defense and no scoring ability.  Assuming it's realistic that he'll reach those numbers (i.e. doesn't have 10 WE or something), I wouldn't hesitate to recruit that guy, even at an A+ D3.

Example on my J&W team.  He won't ever score more than 5 ppg, but he's near perfect defensively.  There's no doubt in my mind players like this contribute to Ws.

These guys can score.  With the Ath and Reb you can expect them to get their share of OF Reb, and the put-backs that go with them.  No reason they can't average 8-9 PPG.

Just signed him.....Recruiting in DIII is a totally different animal......I sign this guy for next to nothing.
