There is nobody on UC’s roster who can play his position as well or efficiently as DM. He will be extremely difficult to replace and I would argue UC’s biggest roster loss.

No Question, the biggest roster loss this year! His defense and rebounding will be sorely missed along with his athleticism.

If Dillon works on his FT, and Mid Range Shot, he's a First Team All American! And a First Round Draft Pick!

Another good fit. Pitino is all about extended defense, which is what Mitchell does best.

Yeah, let's see how Mitchell likes playing in New York City. The fans are brutal in the Big Apple. Being a poor free throw shooter might not be tolerated in NY like it was in Cincinnati.

Nevertheless, the fans will love his athleticism and death-defying dunks. Go get 'em Mitchell. Good luck to you.

[QUOTE=leo from jersey;n426557]

one more thought concerning the stats being skewed and not really relevant.

Totally Agree! I get it, the Metrics used to evaluate these players is very useful!

However, It's really hard to judge / evaluate a player using metrics when he jumps from one team to the next...?

Totatally different Coach, Players, and most likely scheme on the new team. Is it not a coin toss, on wether the player progesses or regresses?

I think will have a pretty good clue, if Wes can Coach or not after this year! If Skillings, Mitchell, Reed end up progressing and the incoming players regress! Then will know for a fact what the real issue concerning the Cats is!

And freshman big Peyton Marshall — who UC previously recruited — in turn hits the portal

I will be particularly interested on how Mitchell progresses under a great experienced coach like Pitino as opposed to what we've seen under Miller.

While a lot of St. John's campus games are fairly mediocre, their MSG games against other high-profile teams often produce an atmosphere as electric as anywhere else in college basketball.

I'm 20 minutes from MSG by train so I try to catch a couple games every season but waited too long to do so this season and didn't want to spend $150/ticket once the team really got rolling.

I look forward to catching a few of Dillon's games next season.

Travis Branham (247) says UC has shown interest in Cal transfer Andrej Stojakovic (Peja's son). Unless he sets up a visit, no chance here. I think he may end up at like Illinois but lots of heavy hitters here.

Stojakovic trending towards Illinois, where he'd fellow Illinois transfers David Mirkovic, Mihailo Petrovic and Zvonimir Ivisic - brother of Illinois big man Tomislav Ivisic!

I think it's gonna be night n day, and will finally see the finished product in Mitchell. I think the majority of us now, wish we had Pitino as a coach. I know I do!

Then why didn’t he show it at Texas?
