He took some bad press from the fans after his freshman season. But remember that if we had had a normal roster, with plenty of upperclassmen, he probably would not have been playing much, if any, as a true freshman. As it was, he got his spots, and gained valuable experience, but obviously was playing with some pretty strict instructions as to what he should attempt. Nothing wrong with that.
He seems to me to be a typical Shields small forward. He works hard and is willing to do the little things that make winning teams. Shields likes tough, defensive-minded 3's, and that looks like what Stetson is. He probably will not score in bunches, but by the time he is an upperclassman, he will have learned the defensive scheme well enough that he will be a lock-down defender, and to my way of thinking they are worth their weight in gold.
