OT: Deonte Burton

[bearcat jeff]

I was just curious to see how this former recruit was doing. There were a lot of people on here pulling for this kid to be a Bearcat. Thru 8 games this is what he has done.

Min: 27.6
PPG: 10
Reb: 1.8
Ast: 3.8
TPG: 2.4
FG: .307 (greatly reduced by shooting 5 for 27 from 3)
FT%: .744% (Has been to the line 39 times)

Outside of the three point shooting he is having a pretty good start to his freshman year.

Good for him. He went to Nevada right? Looking at our situation with the gaurds it seems like the right call for everyone involved. I think I would rather have our current group and our incoming freshman.

I am glad he is doing well.

There is an open scholarship this year so he could have came and not replaced anyone. Though it would have taken up one for next year.

essentially you can look at it as Burton for Jeremiah Davis, since Davis like Burton is a combo guard and was the last to commit. Had we only had 1 more scholarship available, it likely would have gone to a big and not Davis. we'll see in 3 years how it pans out.

Davis really needs to cut down on senseless turnovers. He is not nearly as explosive as Deonte Burton. Davis is probably a better 3 point shooter though. Davis is still learning to be a pg.
