Craft has taken 122 shots this year94th on the team). Craft job is to disrupt the opponent's offense and he does that.

Craft is probably not the shooter that Burke is although the numbers don't support that premise. Burke is shooting 44% from the field and 33% behind the arc. Craft is shooting 48% from the field and 32% behind the arc(last year he shot 37.7% behind the arc).

Both players do what their team needs and are in perfect situations for them. Would Burke help OSU, sure. But, not as much as he helps UM.His time and his shots would be limited.

As for Scott he was an early sign and a good one. Time will tell if he works out. Hell, he might not even stay with 2 sophomores playing the in the back court.

vball10set;1066658 wrote:When they play head to head, I do. Now, if we're talking a center vs. a PG, that's another story. IMO, no matter how you take your players, Craft is more valuable to OSU than Burke is to tsun, simply because he plays much better defense than Burke.

Once Sully and Buford are gone things are going to get interesting on the offensive end. Craft, Scott, Sibert, Lenzelle, and Amir Williams are all somewhat offensively challenged.

Thomas can step into a go-to scorer role I think. Thompson is a good slasher and hopefully LaQ will develop and present an outside threat, but I think things could get ugly at times next year.

Just saw t hey have 0 commits in the 2012 class..yikes

vball10set;1066885 wrote:I knunderstand what you're saying, but since they're playing each other on Sunday and will be guarding one another (I assume), then it's natural to use that as a measuring stick. If Burke has an 'off day', I will attribute that to Craft's defense. If Craft has an 'off day', I'll attribute that to Burke's offense getting the best of him. Burke is where he should be, and playing well. If I had to choose between them? It's Aaron Craft, hands down.

SportsAndLady;1066816 wrote:I guess that makes sense taking 5 guys in the '11 class.

Do you know who they're targeting w/ those 1-2 spots?
