That is sad... BC is a pure bust.... what was MU thinking? BC prob would have gone undrafted
It was very interesting watching the entire cast (Jalen Rose, Simmons, etc) reacting to that pick watching them try to come up with theories on the fly. It was a late oddball pick that they could have sorta swatted away, but they took it really seriously and had a lot of back and forth on a virtual unknown player.

For such an unknown guy I still remember "He's two years away from being two years away."

Simmons..."Then why not trade down with the Heat who clearly want Shabazz Napier?"

to which I thiiiinnnkkk Jalen came out (or slightly rehashed) with his theory of "I gotta get my guy"

It was also interesting watching Jalen explain some teams don't get top free agents so they swing for the fences and Simmons was just not having it

He's been a poor man's MarShon Brooks.  Maybe he can be MarShon Brooks this season with a chance to be a rich man's MarShon Brooks next season.

James Young has an amazing wingspan/reach for his height... most of these guys listed dont share this quality... except brooks...but he was like 6'4
