Goodbye Keyshawn Hall

[gmutom]

And learned to dribble.

You do realize that almost all of his drives to the basket, spin moves and post-ups are a direct result of his ability to dribble, right? If you want to say he needs to be more in control with his dribbling and passing in our half-court sets, I’m in complete agreement. But it’s a false narrative to claim he can’t dribble when it’s a big part of why he’s a legitimate candidate to make the A10 all-conference team.

We REALLY need a sarcasm font. It was a joke playing off the two hand pass comment. Sheesh, guys, relax.

My bad. That was really funny.

Okay, how do we use it...again?
Or maybe I'll just say "sarcasm" from now on. LOL

The winky face looking thing in the bottom right. They literally added it for you, so, it would be nice to learn to use it. ;-)

For me? Really? Cool.
Rats! Still don't have it.

Really? For me? Cool.
Think I got it this time. Yay me!

Keyshawn played all 40 minutes and scored 27 points, and us getting the win will help with recruiting in the future

Now if he just wouldn't dribble so much!

Somebody said he's gonna be the first Mason player ever drafted into the NBA and now I believe it

Ric Wilson was drafted in the 1986 NBA draft. He went 52nd overall.

Also, since Jordan Miller played 3 seasons here, we should definitely claim him.

I didn't realize Jordan Miller was in the NBA! I'm sure had he stayed at Mason though he probably would have never been drafted. That Miami Elite 8 run definitely helped him gain spotlight

I don’t want to derail the thread about Hall, so I’ll just say I like Hall’s chances to get drafted too. And if he leaves after his junior year, it’ll be because he and the team had a special season and I can live with that.

 

[GSII]

IMO, Hall is about 15lbs of pure muscle away from being where he wants to be. And of coarse, those loosy goosey passes won't matter in the NBA b/c they don't play defense there. LOL. Seriously, the loosey goosey passes gotta tighten up.

Or he got a bag somewhere else...

...which is why NIL is so important.

And why it is so important how the multiple transfer waiver ruling plays out.

If players have to sit a year (baring a hardship waiver) after a 2nd transfer, that would really help us retain our transfers like Hall, until at least when they graduate.

Yup; agreed. It's a free-for-all otherwise.

While I normally agree it’s all about the NIL. But in a couple post game interviews, hall raves about Skinn. Skinn has built a special relationship with Hall, and hopefully that relationship is strong enough to keep Hall in Fairfax until he declares for the NBA.

PATRIOT TRIVIA​

In Wednesday’s win at La Salle, Keyshawn Hall recorded his eighth double-double of the season with 27 points and 13 rebounds.

Where does that rank nationally in double-doubles?

TRIVIA ANSWER​

Answer: Sixth.

Hall’s eight double-doubles are tied for the sixth-most in the country by any Division I player. He is tied with Hampton’s Kyrese Mullen as the most by an underclassmen. They are the only two underclassmen to rank in the top-30 nationally in double-doubles.
