He should be twice as good as Holden for what it's worth
Yikes, next year might be a rough one, especially if we dont get Brown...lots of playing time available for the younger guys though.
I wish people didn't expect starters with every scholarship.
I have no reason to question this, but I am curious as to how you've decided he'll be twice as good..... on what basis?
Put up twice as good as numbers in the same conference
Hope so. I think he is definitely worthy of a scholarship at this point.
Albeit on more than twice as much volume on a worse team.
I'd guess he's better, but that probably says as much about Holden's production this year than anything.
He starts looking better when you lose the main target.
Well let me look....
Compared to our team last year...
The guy scores a lot, but he is super inefficient.
His best offensive talent is he seems to get himself fouled a lot -- not many of our players last year were good at drawing fouls. Shayok is SUPER good at drawing fouls, just an FYI.
I trust Shayok can keep that up in the Big 12 if he did it against ACC teams, though. Not so sure that skill is going to translate to bigger and faster Big 12 defenders.
Honestly, the part that would excite me is his rebounding rate.
12.6 per 100 is better than Burton and Holden last year -- Bowie beat him, though.
He is only 6'6" though, but 250. Well, if Hogue could do it...
Oh dear. And that was against Big 12 competition by Hoguebadger, Edozie, and Melvin.
UTSA is in CUSA. Which ranks...
...pretty far down the list. Oh dear. Bowie was from the MVC, at least. LaTech is in CUSA, too.
If Prohm brings him in and tells him to quick chuckin' and fight hard on the boards and maul people on defense, he might find a valuable role for the team.
Kind of a "rich man's Holden," I hope. Or just another one but shorter.
That might have been about what Juiston would have been asked to do.
Nothing too exciting here, though. Might as well roll those minutes into a small-ball lineup and give more time to Lard and Young (or Lewis or another guard) if this is all we are going to have. At least they are young and can build somewhere for the future.
Looking more-and-more like next year is going to be a rebuilding one. That is okay. Bound to happen after the hole in recruiting that Fred left on the roster.
I trust Steve and our young players to get it back where it should be.
Analytics. Suck on this, Charles Barkley.

I like that comparison. I'm starting to get on board with Beverly. More so than I originally was. I'm still not sure he would start, though.
I hope we can quit being babies and stop bashing this kid. He wants to be a Cyclone.
He scored 13 in Hilton against us. Who's to say he won't come in and be good when he's surrounded by better talent?
He has some upside and we're uptight because of how Holden panned out which doesn't guarantee Beverly will be a flop.

The cool part about Beverly is if we want him we can have him, helps the anxiety 
I've always wanted guys that want to be here over guys that don't. So yes, a Beverly that wants to be here might just pan out better than a Juiston who doesn't want to be here and doesn't want to play in meaningful basketball games or even cares about winning evidently.
I don't know about ya'll but I want him. Juiston isn't coming. I'm over it. Hope he has fun on a **** team. For all the ******** about Beverly's 3p shooting, he has decent potential. He shot 44% from 3 at TA&M Corpus Christi. Just 46 attempts but that's enough to make a judgment on. Plus he is a decent free throw shooter so he has some touch.
Sign him up and lets go to #7.

I like him, big fat a$$, which we could use, good hands. I think he can play, not a 39 minute guy but could give you 20 a game. Not clear to me why people so down on him.
Had 14 and 8 against us in November of 2013. Also shot 41.3% from 3 that year.
This is the oddest thing to post. If Juiston committed to Iowa St today, then he obviously would want to be here as well, and we'd be slobbering on his knob, instead of bashing him.
These aren't professionals that get traded, so they're forced to play with a new team. They choose where they want to go.
