Video of Wright in action.


My Take: Has all the skills of a point guard, can drive to the basket, hit the three and pass to the open man. Fearless going to the basket and has a very good cross over move. Impressive film.

Hey Mr. Junkie, do you see us getting involved here. He looks to have the skills to play a combo guard, and he could be the scoring option alongside either Butler or Conley who ever was in and Butler would be a senior his freshmen year and that wouldnt leave us Green for a backup pg/combo pg/sg. We would have offut coming in but he would only be a freshmen.

Hey Mr. Junkie, do you see us getting involved here.

Its hard to tell really, they have targeted Crater in the 2008 class, who they have offered. I think it will be hard to get him out of the east coast. Excellent player though.

ok thanks, I would love for us to get involved here, b/c I really hope that we have room for Buford in the 08 class and if so that would involve us taking 5 players if we went after a pg and not sure if we have the numbers to do that.
