What will he accomplish by December 31st? Does a solid OOC record really mean that much? UND's only chance to be legit this year is to win the BigSky tournament, which unfortunately doesn't start before December 31st. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoops44 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 ■ Tray Buchanan, East Moline United Twp. This one is maybe the most perplexing of all. The highly-productive Buchanan, a 6-1 combo guard, doesn’t have a single offer at any level. None. It’s inexplicable. We’ll start with all the Division II programs out there across the Midwest. Are you kidding? Then we’ll go on to the low-Division I programs. There isn’t a single one in need of a tough, high-motor scoring guard who just goes out and plays? Buchanan is officially in his own club as the Hoops Report’s best senior player in Illinois without a single offer. As a junior he led UT with 20 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals a game while putting up monster numbers in two sectional wins. And his unorthodox game is actually appealing to the Hoops Report as he consistently plays hard and produces.

hoops44 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Buchanan is a scoring guard for Kingdom. He likes to slash to the rim and showed quickness and fearlessness in doing so. He has the upside to be tough in transition as well. Given his size and frame, Buchanan sorely needs to develop his on-ball skills so he can become more of a point guard than off guard. He certainly has the ability to get into the lane, now adding facilitator to his list of traits is most important to see a bump in his stock. Adding a more consistent jumper would help as well. Despite the flaws, Buchanan led Kingdom with 19 points in a win over Wisconsin Playground Warriors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND Fan Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 The three November signings are putting up some impressive numbers thus far this season: Tray Buchanon, United Township HS (22-4) - East Moline, IL Averaging 21 ppg, leading team in assists and steals Garrett Franken, Atlantic HS (12-5) - Atlantic, IA Averaging 24.4 ppg with 9.2 rebounds/game.. Shooting 50% from the floor, 38% on three's Aanen Moody, Dickinson HS (15-1) Averaging 32.5 while leading team in assists and steals Great scoring from these guys (all guards/wings). I don't think we have any scholarships available (right now, at least) but I sure wish we could find a talented big man to bring in for next season.

hoops44 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 look to be guard heavy next season...Jones should have redshirted Walters since he is not playing him ...pretty stupid move by Jones .

We'll see what happens next season, but right now, I'm having a lot of fun watching this season. That loss to NAU still hurts though.

Not sure on the thinking behind Walters but seems like all of UND's bigs have been dinged up at one point or another this year and with the senior talent, you do what you need to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have all bigs back next season which will be key. Jones (or staff) will have to look at adding a F/C Juco in the next couple years to go along with Avants at the 5 and we will have Collins or Walter at the 4. That lineup will be able to matchup in the Summit today, not sure how teams will look in '18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably was a factor but it sure would have been good for Walters (and the program) if he would have used a redshirt year to gain strength and weight. Similar situation as last year, it would have been beneficial for Collins to have another year to mature/develop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think if they would have redshirt Q, he was a freshman on the Senior laden Huff squad. Would be really nice having him as a junior this year.

UND GUY Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Don't see the PF & C spots as a huge need for next year. Avants, Shanks, Bernstine, Collins all return. That's 20 fouls right there. Yes it could be better, but it also could be a lot worse. If Walters continues to work hard that's another capable 4 man. 25 fouls to play with for 2 spots? You can easily win with that. Goes largely unnoticed but Collins has really taken a large step forward. Saturday his numbers weren't eyebrow raising but his defense & versatility were a huge key in that win. Knows his role, moves well, is athletic, can defend 1-4, and rebounds. Bodes well for the future. Kudos to him for being that glue-guy.

hoops44 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Avants is a BSC 4 who is to short to defend the 5 and has problems on the defensive boards...the dude is not a legit 6'7"....Bernstine can rebound but does not score....Great guards ...very average front court at best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like better production rather than simply "counting fouls to give". With two of them being seniors next year, it would be good to have some good young 4-5 position talent join the team soon.
