Doc,
The Rodman/Pippen examples show the "exception", not the "rule" at the D2 Level. It's not to say that there are "no" good player at D2, Just that
D2 players who can excel at the D1 Level are rare. Agree that 6-9/240 and can shoot is well worth a look by the Jays.
Agree. We won't make a living out of recruiting D2 guys, but there are exceptions and I like to find the guys who slipped between the cracks as transfers due to any number of reasons -- late bloomers, injured during HS, played with no visibility in HS, etc.
No idea what happened with Cam Martin, though, it looks a bit like he developed late (will keep looking to see what happened out of HS, though!)
On film here for a game - lots of FT's, not a super fast trigger from 3 PT, but very solid stroke, and off of the high pick a very nice pop - then fake and drive to the basket
