This was a logical signing. In my opinion, you always want to have three point guards on campus. With Hagins and Johnson being upperclassmen, we needed to have a freshman point brought into the pipeline. I hope the staff did not promise him huge minutes, because unless he is very good or Johnson is much worse than predicted, he is not going to play much. But if he is a teachable kid, he can put the year to good use. The official announcement says he is a good scorer, which does not concern me nearly as much in a point guard as how he distributes and takes care of the ball. Sounds like he may actually be a combo guard. Whatever the case, we have our freshman point guard, and that is a good thing.
