George Mason leading Scorer to transfer to Miami (Jordan Miller bump)

[Gables Canes]

If Wong comes back and Joseph signs, the backcourt is set and actually has some good depth (two big if's).

Now if we could just get the frontcourt figured out.

Another guard that can't shoot.

Better than nothing I guess.

Career stats: 48% FG, 33% from 3, 70% from the line

Not a sharpshooter by any means but should be an upgrade over Olayni.

Problem is our biggest need is a gravitational shooter that can keep defenders out of the paint. He doesn't do that.

Assuming he comes back, we're gonna see a lot of Isiah going one of five again this year.

Unfortunately I agree. We don't have a true facilitator to run the offense and we don't have any natural 3 point shooters.

Hope you're right. I see him and Olaniyi as an equal trade-off.

Miller's career stats are a little better than Olayni's, particularly FG %, rebounding, and less turnovers. In addition, the A10 is a significantly better conference than the AEC.

At best, this is a lateral move. Similar to the Miller-Brooks decision we previously had.

My 9th grade son plays AAU and loves Miami - he's available in three years!

Shooting Guard.

Keep whispering Canes in his ear and when he blows up he could be the guy from Dade we been wanting.

We're going to vacation in Florida this summer and we're going to stop by the UM campus and show him where Mom and Dad went to school.

Over/under 6 months before he gets kicked off the team.

Any kid transferring into this dumpster fire of a program must have a ***** loose.

Bump

This thread didn't have many posts but was entertaining to read! Miller ended up being one of my top 4 favorite Miami players of all time (Larkin, Rice, McClinton and Miller in no particular order). I only wish we had him longer than 2 years. Dude was a great athlete and basketball player and seems like an even better teammate and person. Wish him all the luck in the NBA. Here's hoping the Orlando Magic grab him and let him do his thing!

Back to Back trips to the Elite Eight, a perfect game in the Elite Eight to push the team to it's first ever Final Four and an all around leader and compliment to the rest of the team... I think we could have found someone better in the portal.

Just saying

He just played in a GASO tournament in Houston last weekend. We both wanted to go see Miami play, but his second game (against Team Temple Select 17U) conflicted.
