2018 Matt Mooney (Grad Transfer, Texas Tech Commit)

[LJay]

The kid didn’t choose us, I don’t understand all the frustration. Could he have helped us this year? No doubt! But it’s not like we told him to go take a hike.

Damn, Russel Westbrook didn’t come here. We woulda been a contenda!!

Mooney made the Naismith list. Ugh

He's averaging 10.7 points on a .506 eFG% with more turnovers than assists.

So why is he on the list?

[bleedblue]

He made the defensive player of the year list not the actual best player in the country list.

[T-bone]

Right. Might help us.

In regard to another post, Not saying the sky is falling but would have been a nice get.

What is this thing called defensive player of which you speak?

[T-bone]

Naismith released a list of players under consideration for their defensive player of the year, it is not their overall player of the year.

[JacobPadilla]

Not buying him as a top-10 or 15 defender either. His metrics are great, but that's because he plays on the best defensive team in the country.

Sorry, should have used a smiley face. Was kidding because, you know, we don't really have one.
