He's just as flashy as Lovett and some fans can't stand Lovett for that.

Genuinely curious if being from outside of NY makes fans a harsher judge on players. But then if they are from NY they get more pass

Lovett more dynamic, better athlete. Washington much better feel for game.

I'll disagree as I feel they are very close in game.
My point is that people here hold outsiders to a higher standard than NY'ers and I don't get it.

Similar players for sure.

I'm not sure on standard. Are we talking SJU fans? Scouts? general fans?

SJU fans.
They will put all NYC players on untouchable pedestals IMO.

Those are probably the same folks who want or feel there should be a mainly a team full of New Yorker's.

Exactly

Thank you

My thought is to land the NYC kids you gotta land and complete your team from wherever.

Times are different than they were in the 80's. Young kids see the whole country these days on the AAU circuit.

Kids want to leave NYC and kids want to come to NYC.

Agree. Love having good city kids who want to stay home, but talented players from elsewhere are fine in my book too.  Best thing that Lavin did IMO was show that St Johns can get really good players from outside the metro area.

Only issue was he ignored NYC which gave people reason to criticize (with exception of Mo)

This is where the immediate transfer rule can benefit SJU. Knowing it's not happening yet but kids coming home after leaving to not good results. They can make a killing off of kids with a chip on their shoulder coming home.

But I think he's part of that Sidney Wilson jellyfam stuff so likely not high in SJU

Would like him at sju. Reminds me of Jordan Theodore. Don’t let the hall get another one.
*wipes ketchup from his eyes* - I guess Heinz sight isn’t 20/20.

I'd like him too, but we need a true PG for NEXT year. This team needs structure. Dixon, Ponds, and Simon worry me. Even if it's just 15 mpg, we need guys to have roles when things start to fall apart. I think that's why so many people like Trimble. He's the only guy on the team that has one position and one role. We need the PG version of him.

We also need to make sure that the staff wants and knows how to utilize a true PG. The current system that Mullin runs seems to put too much of an emphasis on the positionless crap. I agree they need a real PG and real defined roles in some respects. I haven't seen any system on the court though that would support this.

This is good for St. John's. They'll recruit him in a year when he transfers.

This was too obvious

So you think St. John's will land a better player than Washington?
