Reminds me of JCL. Nice stroke but lacks the athleticism to break anyone down off the dribble.

Guy’s ceiling looks like maybe Feliz with a better 3 point stroke. Or Tracy Abrams.  Stocky, not quick, not much of a leaper combo guard

I can see why Kentucky cut him loose after his injury.  He reminds me of Boswell but with far less explosion

WTF are you talking about? He’s a way better ball handler than jCL and a passer.

Certainly will need to continue work on his recovery and rehab, but this kid had extremely high level athleticism before his injury. I am sure they have a plan for him already.

Rich McBride as a comp?  Stocky slow guard with a nice form on somewhat of a set shot 3. 

If you’re comparing body types, the McBride is a good comp

Skyy looks to have a little J. Kidd flair in him....good size, outstanding passer, average to above athleticism...PG and SG skills....not saying he is Kidd, just his game.

Current Scholarship Grid shows us with 1 open, 2 open with Kofi leaving?

Who do we target if Kofi stays? Incoming class is balanced, talented and I think our weakest position now becomes PF with Skyy/Epps and current players helping on handling the ball.

Do we target a PF in the portal or take another freshman or carry over?

You take Brandon Murray from LSU or Shannon Jr if either wanna come.

Clark seems to have better court vision/awareness that most of our PG recruits do entering college.

He is a better passer with both hands than anybody we have had coming in since Deron or Frankie.
This kid is a playmaker and scorer.
Hope he has a good summer continuing getting his knee stronger. Should be an impact player right away.

I seriously can’t see credits not transferring as the reason Shannon doesn’t come here. That would be absurd.

I think there was a citation in this thread a few pages back about us losing a junior to Houston last year over the same issue.
