[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 1003343, member: 4110"] I'm going to continue my current trend of dissent and ya'll can hold me to it. But isn't dissent more interesting to read? Sutton will impact right away because he brings what Stoudamire needs. His length and quickness is what we need on the defensive end. Remember that GT couldn't stop anyone last season and the quickest way to get the team to start winning is to be better on defense. Sutton doesn't need skill or development for his length to impact in the gaps. His differentiating characteristic is court awareness and that plays on the defensive end and on the boards. Reeves has not been an impact defender either at GT or UF (not sure why). As a rising Senior, I think that is what it is. On offense, Sutton can pass and guys with court awareness can move the defense. If he can hit an open shot from the corner, he fits right in. Sutton doesn't fill the need for a big body in the post but he will never be that. Sutton in one of those versatile "4-out" forwards. We will need other guys to be determined to fill the "Big body" role. George was a "Huh? Who?" recruit. The limited tape on him showed a pesky defender, pass-first guard with not much of a show in offensive skills. His first season in college showed way more than his scant high school footage. I don't think Sutton, as a top 100 player, is a good comparison to George. Sutton brings much more tape and reputation to the table. But George and Sutton do share the characteristic of good court awareness. [/QUOTE]
