Offline 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists in 29 min v. RMU. Last edited by WEB (12/19/2015 4:38 pm) Offline 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists in 29 min v. RMU. Good points, Eric is the future of this team. He can steal the ball, has great court vision, is fast and on the move, is as fast as a point guard. can shoot the 3, but has great instincts in the paint. This kid can play big time ball inside-out. That a rare find. Offline 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists in 29 min v. RMU. Good points, Eric is the future of this team.

That a rare find. Then, we have hit the" Next Level". Remember, no one on this team was picked pre-season anything A-10. Ferry needs to play Eric James and Lewis and center the game around them to be anything next year. We have two perimeter shooters that have score 1000 points in total losing seasons in those years,,, very deceiving that they are the strength of this team?? Want to win going down the wire??? Go inside with Lewis and James, then finish on the outside with the 3's that the inside game gives you late in the game. Then next year you have 2 pre-season A-10 players , James and Lewis.

Offline Yes I do not understand why people are saying we need to feature him more. He missed a wide open dunk yesterday. He's 6'11. I think he can play a role...but thats about it. Offline SORRY but Lewis is a ROLE player at best - Expect more from Powell, and Gill in the front court - possibly Sanders with a year under his belt as well. Sorry, but real centers are rare. If the coaches didn't see it that way, why is he starting? 6'11" and can move, block the center of the paint, and make the opponent work around him? The only reason he only played 19 minutes was foul trouble, not that Powell, Gill, or Sanders was a better choice. The real question, why is Micah and Coulter playing 39 minutes? Both thru up bricks all game. It's not like Castro did any good riding the bench all game? Was He injured or something?

I hope this kid can get it together, but so far he has been awful, a slow-mo turnover machine. Ferry couldn't possibly have put him in against RMU on the basis of what Castro has shown in game situations.

Yea, I've seen it, but playing 2 or three minutes here or there isn't enough to get into the flow, but maybe in practice the coaches don't see much either? This kid came from Butler and sat out a season, practice with the team one whole year, and didn't come into this season playing quality minutes? Go figure? Offline Are you on drugs? You seriously want to feature castro and lewis more?! They are the weakest players on the team! Offline Tarin Smith also is a big piece to the program moving forward. ElDuque even said he talked to someone who said what kind of player this kid can be. Offline I like Eric James but somebody has the opinion he can shoot threes.His outside shooting needs lots Offline Speaking of hitches in shooting, can you say Jarrett Durham or B.B. Flenory? It ain't his shot that the coaches have emphasized. It is taking the ball to the hole. At least that is what Eric said in the post game interview after the RMU game when talking to Jarrett Durham.

COACH DRU HAS NOW FILLED ALL OF HIS COACHING POSITIONS
BRONNY JAMES REMAINS IN THE NBA DRAFT
Eric James
He continues to develop. Very excited to see his progression for two more seasons.
Also was by far and away our best defender.

Re: Eric James
of work, he has a hitch on his shot,that needs to go.I cant believe Ferry hasnt changed his mechanics
because no one could ever be a good shooter with that release. I just shake my head watching that.
The biggest complaint of mine is LG Gill taking threes,his shot is too flat and with a muscular body
he needs to be post down low instead of standing around 20 feet from the basket.
