Gotta believe he would come in at Point and share ball handling duties with Turner. He definitely would help bring Crater along slowly, along with P.J. Hill too... whom I was impressed with towards the end of the year. Sounds like he's got a nice shot, so we'll need his shooting too since Turner and Lighty are so-so beyond the arc.

Dumes is a combo guard.....can score from the perimeter and has above average skills handling the ball........could be a good fit and provide depth at the point guard position next year.

By D-Biddy...Dumes' coach talks about what makes him such a talented player. Also talks about his and Devon's contact with the OSU staff.

I really don't see Turner sharing ballhandling duties with any PG anymore than he has in the recent couple of games. He is not a natural PG. I think if we do not get Dumes or Holloway the PG will be manned between Hill/Crater. It would be nice to have someone who is more of a offensive threat from the outside to pick up on some of what Butler will leave.
I think you will see an improvement in Turner's and Lighty's outside shooting next year now that they both have another year of college basketball behind them with a lot of practice time before next season.

I think I worded that wrong, my bad. I meant to say Turner will help out Dumes, since Dumes doesn't seem anymore of a "true" point than Butler is.
